I don't get what some people have against immigrants, somewhere in your past, your family immigrated to where you are living now, and if you live in the united states, chances are really good that there's an illegal immigrant somewhere in your family tree.

i'm quite a bit american indian and they weren't immigrants. and since they weren't, the other sides of my family beat the shit out of them and put them on the trail of tears. but that's fuckin' old news. bashing immigrants is racism with a thin disquise. i'm not about to bash germans, canadians,hispanics, etc because i'm fairly sure there's one not too far up in my family tree. ignorance and intolerance are the price we have to pay to cling to such inconvenient things as morals: we can't just kill the stupid mofo's.

im sorta divided on this issue, i mean i feel that people should have the right to move to wherever the fuck they want, and not be bothered by anyone about it. i also feel that they should earn the right to be there. i live in an area with lots of hispanic immigrants, and im not gonna rant about them stealing our jobs (cause its not like ive tried to hard to get one) but the way i feel is, if you move somewhere, you have to adapt to the fucking situation. theres no reason that they should get to move, and have all the benefits of the society, without trying to adapt to the downsides. first and foremost, you should have to learn the language, it seems like at least like 10\% of my school cant speak english. and then there are the people who dont wear deodorant. its really not cool. i mean, if i moved to russia or germany or something, i would do my best to learn the language, and follow whatever local customs they had. why dont we deserve the same courtesy?id like to point out again, i am not against immigration at all(after all, my best friend is an immigrant) but im against immigrants who dont try to adapt at all.

Actually i'm part native american too, but we too immigrated from asia, (although there is a theory that there were people here from before that). So even most of the native americans were immigrants too.

i agree on the language part, even though america has no official language, we conduct all business in english, so i just as well should be set official.
