It is one of those "spin" words that they use in an misplaced effort to intimidate us.
Like "racist" or "lazy white" or lazy white gringo" or any of the other trigger words they have decided to use.
Bottom line, we have quite apologizing for being Americans. We have quit apologizing for being white. We have quit apologizing for being industrious and working smarter, not harder....
The Politically Correct stuff has now gone by the wayside....the only ones who wish to be politically correct are the stuff-shirt politicians...the rest of America has trashed the PC mentality.....
My people have been here since 1740...........and we have fought in every war since, protecting the sovereignty of America. I am proud of the rifle my father inherited from a great uncle who fought in the Spanish-American war. My father gave it to my son...it is a family treasure. I am proud the my father fought in WWII, My grandfather fought in WWI, My great-grandfather (also) fought in the Mexican war, My great-great grandfather fought in the Civil War, my ancestor....Stephen Swain, fought in the Revolutionary War.
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND THOSE WHO HAVE PRESERVED HER!

Immigrants were used to conquer this land from sea to shinning sea. This was the purpose for immigration. All other reason are a fraud on the public.
The citizens of the United States no longer need immigrants. Corporations want the immigrants to supply them with cheap labor and new consumers. They want citizens and all other's under their thumb or boot as they use to say. This is what you call tyranny, look it up in the dictionary.
Read the "Declaration of Independence" to learn what to do.

I can't think of one reason why what your family did has any bearing on your personal privileges. America fought a Revolution to get rid of kings and privilege by birthright (with mixed success). You are not responsible for bad things your ancestors may have done, and you do not deserve credit for good things your ancestors may have done. Besides, if "number of generations living here" were the relevant measure of entitlement, you'd have to clear out for the real Native Americans. Basically, your claim of special entitlement to be here is arbitrary and the product of muddle-headed thinking, it would appear.

You have, they have not, they'd like to have, please, you weren't going to finish that, were you? LOL
Mexico be 'po' either through natural force of evolution these last 150 years, or through the incompetence and greed of their leadership, such as it is. I think that to their govt., the population largely resembles an exploitable resource. And, if by starving em out, and sending em north, they can cause more money to be brought into their economy, they wouldn't think twice about it.
Their country's really kind of in crisis, now, but I think it's unwise for their able-bodied workforce to move north en masse, there's plenty that needs to be done IN Mexico. But, in order to accomplish that, they have to be more welcoming to foreign investment etc. Mexico's actually WAY strict on immigration, it might not be such a bad idea to consider border policy parity with them until and unless they get their act together...it's hard to say what the best track might be to follow to get Mexico to reform,
but I don't think that turning a blind eye to illegal immigration is very wise. It's a mounting problem that grows harder to deal with each year, and the end result is going to be somewhat negative for the United States. In other words, it's the same tired story it was way back in the 60's, Mexico's all screwed up, but now that whole state of being screwed up is starting to spread to the United States. You'd think, being neighbors and all, that by now they would have sort of gotten their act together, and learned some things from us, but...what do you do. I say 'support the US Border Patrol', and write your representatives and ask good honest questions about the issue, see if you get an answer back, if nothing else your letter will be on top of thousands and millions of others asking them 'whats up with the border' etc....

I was born here as was my parents grandparent, etc for back to the 1600s. My ancestors have lived here longer than there has been a U.S. They helped establish the United States via the Revolutionary War. I am part native American so that line has been here since the Indians migrated here from Siberia during the last Ice Age.
Opposition to illegal immigration has nothing to do with race, religion, nationality, etc. because illegal aliens are from just about every nation. It has to do with illegally coming to this country in violation of our immigration laws.
I've seen a lot of pro illegal alien advocates who are Latino also point out that illegal aliens are from every country and not to "single them out." No one is singling you out. It has nothing to do with being Latino or not. It has to do with being a criminal or not.

Yes, we're a nation of immigrants. But that was because we as a country had always wanted them to come here, even if we relegated them to terrible conditions.
We've changed a lot as a nation. We no longer have the great need for their labor. And with all the social programs we have, we can't afford to take care of the millions of immigrants who come here illegaly, have no health care, and have large families.

I know what you mean but it's no more stupid than any other lie that they grasp at. They even say they are really "Native Americans who speak Spanish" and then when the Indians go to blasting that theory to hell, they start calling them racists and making fun of their heritage! They think nothing of being racist to others but they sure love to pull the brown card, don't they?
This is interesting because I just got an e-mail from this Mexican guy telling me that his family has been here long before mine. I guess he thinks he knows something about me. So, if they have been here before we have, why must they SNEAK OVER HERE FROM MEXICO to lie and steal IDs to work here ILLEGALLY?!! hummmm....interesting.....

But you are an immigrant. You are also an American, but you are an immigrant. You are not an illegal. Immigrant isn't a bad word, a critisism, or a slam. America would be nothing without immigrants, as the only true Americans were the Indians.

in the event that they hire illegals they could desire to be fined triple of what they have paid to that guy or woman and in the event that they proceed then they could desire to circulate to reformatory. to this point as farming is going, the illegals do no longer prefer to paintings those piking jobs anymore because of the fact they are in a position to rather get jobs in shape or provider jobs. If the government enforced the guidelines as they have been written there could be greater human beings attainable to paintings on the farms. you are able to spin it any way you like, 80p.c.of the yank human beings do no longer prefer amnesty nor will they submit with unlawful extraterrestrial beings and their crimes against the folk anymore! Why do you think of they are referred to as unlawful what do no longer you comprehend.

Where ever you are born, you are native to that land, not an immigrant, That is all their Mexican activists organizations are telling them, that everyone is an immigrant, they just don't no the difference. half are illiterate anyway. Their organizations make up the signs and they tell them what to say and chant. It dose get sickening after a while.
