IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we
are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist
attacks on Sept. 11, we
have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority
of Americans.
However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled
when the "politically
correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility
that our patriotism
was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge
against anyone who is
seeking a better life by coming to America. Our
population is almost
entirely comprised of descendants of immigrants.
However, there are a few
things that those who have recently come to our
country, and apparently some
born here, need to understand.
This idea of America being a multicultural community
has served only to
dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As
Americans, we have our
own culture, our own society, our own language and our
own lifestyle. This
culture has been developed over centuries of
struggles, trials, and
victories by millions of men and women who have sought
freedom. We speak
ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese,
Russian, or any other
language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our
society, learn the
language!
"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not
some Christian, right
wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto because
Christian men and
women, on Christian principles, founded this nation,
and this is clearly
documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it
on the walls of our
schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you
consider another part of the
world as your new home, because God is part of our
culture. If Stars and
Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then
you should seriously
consider a move to another part of this planet. We are
happy with our
culture and have no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you
did things where you came from. This is OUR COUNTRY,
our land, and our
lifestyle.
Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to
express his opinion and
we will allow you every opportunity to do so. But,
once you are done
complaining, whining, and griping about our flag, our
pledge, our national
motto, or our way of life, I highly encourage you to
take advantage of one
other great American freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
