Popular Post oleman Posted November 6, 2011 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 My Grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I... My Father watched as his friends died in WW II and Korea ... I watched as my friends died in Vietnam ... None of them died for the Mexican Flag... Everyone died for the U.S. flag... In Texas , a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down. Guess who was expelled... the kid who took it down. Kids in high school in California were sent home this year on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them. Enough is enough. The below e-mail message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America . We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough... I'm taking a stand... I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. flag can't stand up... And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message... Let me make this perfectly clear! THIS IS MY COUNTRY! And, because I make This statement DOES NOT Mean I'm against immigration!!! YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY! Welcome! To come through legally: 1. Get a sponsor! 2. Get a place to lay your head! 3. Get a job! 4. Live By OUR Rules! 5. Pay YOUR Taxes! And 6.Learn the LANGUAGE like immigrants have in the past!!! AND 7.Please don't demand that we hand over our lifetime savings of Social Security Funds to you. If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, Then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM! When will AMERICANS STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS??? We've gone so far the other way... bent over backwards not to offend anyone... But it seems no one cares about the AMERICAN CITIZEN that's being offended! WAKE UP America !!! If You agree... Pass this on... If You don't agree... Then Just Delete It - But Shame On You!!!! God bless the United States of America , our US troops & our US citizens in JESUS name, amen... because... in GOD we trust! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usaok Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Writer great truth in what u say , an old marine here .... Love it or leave , play by the rules or get out , is my opinion. We r way to soft in this country , we have become a country of entitlement , this country was and should be about work and u will receive ........ Our government does not know what the word illegal means , politicians don't pay taxes , they lie without regard or repercussion . What message r we sending our youth .. Give me something for nothing . I had to work you have to work , why should someone from another country come over our unprotected borders and receive a check .... Long story short , we need a leader that has a clue and does not want us to turn into a give me culture and socialistic communistic. Country..America best wake up real soon ........ Talk to someone who lived in communist Russia. She was there during that period and has said to me this all looks awful familiar .......... America needs a businessman and a real leader , not a bebop bs artist... Food for the thoughtless...... Wake up... Oh the dinar , men and woman r dying every mite , hour, day and month while we r eating Bon bons and crying about when the dinar will happen. Sit back get fat and be patient , oh if u have the time say a prayer for those brave woman and men , you will be maybe rich some day , don't forget to give to those who fought to make u rich, maybe..........Joe c 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottch Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I am a native american and a U.S. Veteran and after reading this I wanted to add something. America is filled with and was founded by many different people, and all have different cultures. If you go back in history you will find that the only people that were hear were the Native Americans, everyone else came from different countries. There are Asian Indian people, Irish people, Spanish people, Mexican people, Asian people of all types, and more. Each have their own heritage and culture, like holidays. that does not make them less American! I have been in a few other countries and I can tell you that there are people, even in countries friendly to the U.S. that do not like Americans. Hate is everywhere! Even in our own back yard, but telling people that they can't follow their culture is wrong, it happened to the native americans here in the U.S. They had to give up their culture and the children were sent to boarding schools away from home and family so that they could learn english and how to live like the whites. If they refused they were forced! so why should we treat others in that way? Have we not leared from the past? 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ems Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 I am a native american and a U.S. Veteran... telling people that they can't follow their culture is wrong, it happened to the native americans here in the U.S. They had to give up their culture and the children were sent to boarding schools away from home and family so that they could learn english and how to live like the whites. If they refused they were forced! so why should we treat others in that way? Have we not leared from the past? Thank you for your service to our country. I don't think anyone has anything against people keeping their culture when they come here. I think the point is that when people come here, they should not impose their culture upon us! The examples given in the post point out that the boy who got expelled was the one who took down the Mexican flag (not the one who raised it) and the students wearing T shirts of American flags on Cinco de Mayo. The 5th of May is the day Mexicans defeated the French at Puebla, Mexico. What does that event have to do with the US and since when is the American flag offensive? The way our government treated native Americans is shameful and wrong. Native Americans were here first and have every right to maintain their customs. The point of the post is to point out that this is the United States, not Mexico, not Pakistan, not China, etc... Immigrants from those countries can keep their customs, just don't force the rest of us to live by them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
