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 made up 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, Portuguese, 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.
If you agree -- pass this along;
if you don't agree -- leave it!
AMEN
