Immigrants here in the US getting what they want no matter what

I so agree with you. I won't get into too much of my opinion because I don't want to get started in a huge debate, but I am tired of the illegal immigrants that come over and take all the American Jobs. If you want to come over here and do things the right way, by all means, come over and have a better life then the one you had before but don't come over here and do things the wrong way. I can't stand when they also come over here and won't learn our language and talk in their language. Nail salons and Walmart have to be the worst for this. I won't even go into a nail salon anymore unless it's run by Americans. They are the rudest people there are sitting there talking in Vietnamese while customers are there. See, I probably got way off course on this. Sorry!

Religion hasn't been taken out of schools - it was never supposed to be in there in the first place because our founding fathers (the IMMIGRANTS who stole this land from the Native Americans) wanted to separate chruch and state. I live in Albuquerue currently on Kirtland Airforce Base, and here there are a lot folks from South American and none that I know are on welfare - all work hard for a living. Everyone here, except all the various tribes that make up native americans are immigrants. Are you native american - or at least part of the English who came to take their land away - you would be here a long time. I'm German - technically my grandparents are immigrants. If you're family is originally from Europe and not native american they're immigrants to,. My mom used to be in international development and she found that americans wanted immigrants to come here and speak english - right away - and expected to go to foreign countries and have them speak english - and were quite upset when this wasn't the case. Most countries, unlike ours require English to be taken as a second language. Also, I know a lot of folks who have been here for generations, who are on welfare as well. I can put my hands together and say a prayer for thanks - thats not illegal yet. thank goodness. just in schools as our founding fathers felt church and state should be separate. your beef is with them not immigrants. I hope you don't mind me expressing my opinion though it differs from yours. I appreciate you and your opinion and appreciate your thought and discussion inspiring post. Thank you. I hope you have an unstressful day.

I don't see how we can't pray in front of others. Other religions don't offend me either. I don't have to communicate to others in a different language, I do speak spanish as a second language and live in the south, but I've rarely had to speak it unless I was helping a person in need. Most of the illegal immigrants that I've seen down here don't drive fancy cars or have much money. So really, I don't see how "they" are getting their way. Oh, I'm also here because of illegal immigrants, my great grandparents immigrated Norway, Sweden, and England. No one ever complained about them, but maybe that's because they have white skin. They worked on farms and orchards and never went on welfare.

I think you are the most uninformed person I have ever come across. It is rambling dogmatic yokels like you that cause the rest of the world to hate everything we stand for. Instead of realizing real issues and petitioning leglislation from your representatives, you spit ambiguous generalizations without any support or validation. Do yourself a favor and pick up a newspaper once a week so you can actually present an argument with credible merit. I am an american NATIVE american acctually and your pledge of allegiance DOES offend me because the word god is in it the problem is that you christians think it is ok to shove your religion down everyones throat but if someone else doesn't like it you call them a terrorist.

Now i don't really know about them all having really expensive cars and all that, but i do know that this country, being made up entirely of immigrants, has a new extremely under represented minority. The average American Joe, your standard white puritan. It is so much harder these days for the white man, as Universities and major corporations strive for this rather new 90's phenomenon which has been deemed important. Diversity. If you're Caucasian, you're not diverse enough to get into a good school, or work for a big company. It kind of sickens me that these institutions really think true diversity comes from the color of your skin.
