No, America Wasn’t ‘Founded’ By Immigrants

[tumorboy]

I agree!! If you can’t trace your lineage back to a Patriot ancestor who led, fought or supported the revolution….GET OUT OF HERE!! This country was founded by those entrepreneurs.

And helped by the African volunteers.

This might help some of you discern the difference between settlers and immigrants. Maher begins by talking about Israel but then expands into the overarching role Western ideals had in the founding of this country.





Btw, to all the people who believe you are living on stolen land why don't you put your money where your mouth is and ...

Perhaps you should consider investing in a thesaurus, so you don't have to use "stupid" three times in two sentences. Just a thought since you know, you're obviously smarter than the OP, and not just one of the elitist lefties that people would like to smack around for the fun of it.

You and your mom are both welcome to come try.

See! We have something in common. I only hit Republicans, too. They deserve it. I’m glad we agree!

Correct. Invaders is the correct term. That's exactly what I would have used to describe what happened. They came to a land they knew was inhabited by indigenous people with the full intent of taking the land. That's not what this Federalist article infers. The author basically states that these lands were there for the taking as if no prior claims to it existed.

Invaders. That's what conservatives are calling these people coming to the southern border today, however these people aren't coming in an organized effort to take over the country as was done earlier. Most of them are true immigrants that are simply looking for a better life for them and their families, just as millions of other people from which most of us have descended have for 100's of years. Give us your tired, your poor, your unwashed. That's what this country was built and thrived upon and no bullshit revisionist history is going to change that.

Fix the border. Fix the immigration system. Stop demonizing people who want a better life.

Sorry, but that is the problem. You don't "fix" the immigration system by telling everyone to just come on in (like Biden). Doing that basically says you don't have an immigration system.

Now, I could could not care less about exactly how this country started when the British sent the colonist over here. It is history and that is all to me. We live in the here and now, and the fact that over 3500 people on the terror watch list came in either unvetted or worse yet, stopped and released it the biggest issue.

For over 100 years people have come here looking for a better life and they took the steps to make that happen. There is absolutly nothing evil about asking folks to follow a process to get a better life that millions have done before the last 4 years.

But, I do agree that it should not take 10 freaking years to make that happen for those that are looking for that.

Your second sentence is incorrect. So I didn't read the rest of what you wrote.

If you can't refute what I said with actual dialog and without being snarky......then you have proven nothing.

What's humorous is they think you can't be in immigrant if you didn't sneak in. It's as if they don't know what they are talking about.

Who has said that? You can be an immigrant.......it's just that you are an illegal immigrant. This is pretty straight forward.
