We have to preserve our country, our traditions, our values. If we don’t,our great nation will become a 3th world nation like Mexico.

You're exactly right. Unfortunately though, IMO, I think it might be too late...

our country wasn't founded by despots disguised as patriots hiding behind a flag doing nothing and talking shit. it was founded by rebels brave enough to challenge an empire upon which the sun never set. it succeeded because of their actions and deeds, finding a common ground for peoples of huge diversity.

bigots, arians, rascists, intolerance - these are the dangers and enemy to the continuance of our way of life.


You can't really be serious........

So all white arian people are a danger and are the ememy?????

The Benefits of having cheap labor available far exceed the cost of 44 billion per year.

Wrong...Most Mexicans send back cash to Mexico and not pay taxes etc..They started breaking the law the minute they crossed the border.. Stealing SSN# is a good example....Do your own yard get some physical exercise

I think we either STOP illegal immigration which we all know is mostly coming from Mexico OR we simply take over the country of Mexico and have access to all of the resources they possess which would offset some of the cost of the "freeloaders".

arians, as you coin does not exist as an ethnic group or a race, and the term is aryan anyway. it is, as u surely know, something adapted by folks who align themselves with Nazism and the KKK. the only peoples who may remotely be referred to as actually Aeyan are of middle eastern descent, and tha is even a stretch.

anytime i see a patriotic thread it is almost invariably a racist thread that has nothing to do with love of country, but more often hatred. there's no legitimate place for that in  America,

Dude, what do you have against the illegal immigrants?  Have you ever even been around them?  They are the most hardworking, honest, group of people I've ever met.  They don't cause trouble becuase they cannot afford to.

I grew up on a large cattle ranch in Texas.  Back in the day, the hispanics were practically family.

Right now, unskilled people are using them a scapegoat for taking their jobs when in reality, very few people actually want those jobs anyway. 

On a side note, the older I get, the much more tolerant I get about other cultures.  You think you are special for some reason?  Maybe because you came from a more priveleged or wealthier background.  The immigrants are not going to stop coming here so just get used to them already.

they could not have been slaves. they would have picked the cotton, wove it into fabric, made the master clothes, and asked for more work.

my state of residence has illegal workers almost exclusively in the rich hoods. it's the ignorant, uneducated, have nots and bigots that have the biggest problem with Mexicans.

People are scared of the unkown.  Like when people were little kids and they were afraid of the dark or something.
 
I mentioned this a few weeks ago but the hispanics went on strike for one day about a year ago in Atlanta.  It was hilarious, everything was closed !!!!  Everything.

If we are gonna pick on someone, I say we pick on the plumbers.  Plumbers are always causing problems.  They show up half a day late and screw up the job site.

Where does the term "African American" come from?

Does this mixing of heritage and nationalism apply it self to all peoples?

Who created the term "African American"?


Maybe the same guy who coined italian american, or irish ameican, or or fraqnco american spaghettios

I dont care what color you are, theres one National Anthem in this country and one only.  People of other races shouldnt be making up their own national anthems.  This is just plain wrong. This type of double standard crap has got to stop in this country.

What do I have against illegal immigrants ? Well,the illegal part is a start !!
I didn't come from privileged background either(far from it),but you must have your head in the sand if you don't notice the problems we have in this nation with illegal immigrants..once again I ask why is Mexico a third world country especially with all the resources they have...and our friends to the north have a very successful society ?


What can be said for a man who would allow his home to be invaded by strangers who demanded they be fed, clothed, housed and granted the rights of the first-born? What can be said for a ruling elite that permits this to be done to the nation, and who celebrate it as a milestone of moral progress?

Did those states also used to be part of Mexico?



I'm waiting for someone to label me a  “White Supremacists” or “Neo-Nazi.” etc..(I'm not either)but isn't it odd if I should stand up for forces that are  corrupting our language, literature, music, education, morals, history,culture that made this a great country I could be labeled a racist.I am not a racist..Harry Truman once said" When even one American who has done nothing wrong is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth, then all Americans are in peril."

Wow....Big misconception....Sheep are taught that this is the way it took place, but in reality the land was purchased from Mexico...It wasn't much, but a sale is a sale....Many think the land was taken, but it was not.....Very naive of you to think that this was the case and very frustrating that people of Mexico and Americans alike do not know the truth....What a shame!
