First off Columbus discovered america. And he was white. I am so sick and tired of the natives saying this is thier land.

Yes their were natives who came here and tried to take over land, but americans won the land fair and square.

HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT WILL BE BEFORE THEY COVER THE FACE OF THE STATUE OF LIBERTY WITH A CLOTH. SINCE CERTAIN COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW A WOMENS FACE TO BE SHOWN? AND IN AMERICA WE DO EVERYTHING ELSE TO ACCOMIDATE THESE IMMIGRANTS WANTS.

FIRST OFF I AM NOT IGNORANT. AND TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO....

EVERYONE WHO IS NOT A WHITE AMERICAN NEEDS TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY AND GO BACK HOME. ALL BLACKS AND BLACK AMERICANS NEED TO GO BACK TO AFRICA. AND SINCE THE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS HAVE NO PLACE TO CALL HOME. WE NEED TO FIND THEM A HUGE AREA IN SOME OTHER COUNTRY AND THEY CAN FORM THEIR OWN COUNTRY AND SUPPORT THEMSELVES. WITHOUT THE CASINOS AND ALL THE GOVERMENT HANDOUTS THEY WILL NEVER MAKE IT ON THIER OWN..

AND WHO REALLY CARES WHO DISCOVERED AMERICA. AMERICA STANDS FOR WHITE PEOPLE. AND FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVE MARRIED ANOTHER RACE AND YOU ARE WHITE. WELL YOUR SPOUSE AND CHILDREN WILL HAVE TO GO BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY. THE UNITED STATES IS FOR WHITE PEOPLE. WE DO NOT GO INTO OTHER COUNTRIES AND DEMAND THIS AND THAT. PRETTY SOON THE AMERICAN FLAG WILL BE TAKEN DOWN AND SOME OTHER COUNTRIES FLAG HUNG. WE AS AMERICANS NEED TO STOP THIS INSANITY. WE ARE BEING INVADED BY IMMIGRANTS.

I have to agree that we are TOO accommodating with illegal and some legal immigrants. If you wanted to live here so bad, get used to AMERICA, don't try to change it. Why leave your country if you're going to just try to make America change to be more like it? I understand that it can be hard to learn a different language..but please abide by OUR laws and atleast try to speak english, this is America. As for like 'Latino pride ' protests and stuff like that..once again, if you're so proud of your culture why are you here? Why won't you support the land you live in? Its like me running in the streets with thousands of Irish people, saying that America should be run more like Ireland and that we don't get appreciated enough. No. I'm proud to be an American, and if you're not, you shouldn't be here.

First off Columbus didn't discover America, how do U discover a land that is already inhabited? Second, the Europeans came here and stole the land from the Indians who had no problems with the Europeans being here, until the Europeans got greedy and wanted the land all to themselves, and murdered them. Tell me how that is fair and square? To kill off a whole race of people just for a piece of land. History books don't tell the entire story, only what they want U to know. Educate yourself before posting ignorant questions and statements. PEACE

What school did you go to? I'll bet you rode the short bus didn't you. First of all, Columbus was not white, he was Italian. Second of all, he didn't discover America, he discovered Cuba. Third, native Americans were here WAY before America was "discovered" and whites came and stole their land away from them. Why do you think the government continues to give them special rights? They are given crappy land to live on and can open casinos when nobody else can just so they can support themselves and not live in poverty. Why don't you learn some facts before you start spouting your stupidity.

There are a number of myths, which some americans continue to harbour as fact.
1) Columbus did not discover America first. (see Stone age French, Norwegion Vikings, Henry the Navigator.
2) The Americans did not win the War of Independence. (The Brit officers capitulated to their german king.)

3) The Statue of Liberty being a french woman does not need a veil.

As I remember My school books Columbus was NOT the first man here - The Indians were here first and the white man stole there land by killing ,starving, and forcing them onto reservations .
The Indians should of just let the white man starve and freeze to death the first year they were here - then there would not be all this white power crap now !!
NO I am not a Indian- i'm white - but I do know my history

first of all it's been shown that Columbus never landed on North American soil and the Native American Indiana was already settled here, most likely coming from Asia by way of Alaska, but they were here first.
Second of all this Country is the home of the free and we accept all peoples of the world.

Actually, Vikings hit America before us and Columbus was Italian wasn't he? Anyway, I do know what you mean-reverse predjudice. We didn't win America, like many other nations and people- we took it or bought it at a rip off price. But it is time to be proud of all we have done to create a wonderful free place, even with all its problems, and insist that others respect it too or get out.

Andy Rooney said on "60 Minutes" a few weeks back:

I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United ***** College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the UnitedCaucasianCollege Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens...Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door.

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE?

I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.

I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.

When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability.

I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!

My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.

I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry *** if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.

We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document; and open to their interpretations.

I don't hate the rich I don't pity the poor.

I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.

It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!"

I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!

I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa ; so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe I am proud to be from America and nowhere else

And if you don't like my point of view, tough...

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG, OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA , AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

I was asked to send this on if I agree or delete if I don't. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a problem in having "In God We Trust" on our money and having "God" in the Pledge of Allegiance. Why don't we just tell the 14% to Shut Up and BE QUIET!!!
