How many slaves did your family own for you to acquire so much guilt?
Really? American people and their attitudes. What's not to love, right?
Not one, can put the shoe on the other foot, put themselves into a situation and understand what it means, not one. I bet your ancestors can though. You know the ones. The ones that arrived up on Ellis Island off the ship that took 'em 4 years to get here, from the other country so far away in the distance.
I don't know the average age group posting, but I do know that in about 20 years, the face of America, well lets just say, change is coming as it should. No amount of whining about it, will stop it.

I am a positively brown guy who immigrated to America via JFK.
Unlike you, I don't have to "pretend" to be in their situation, I have lived in that situation all along.

Be careful for what you wish.
I quite welcome legal immigration, what I oppose is the Islamization of America. Why is it that majority of terrorist incident in America involve Muslims?
Why aren't the Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Sikhs, Druids etc killing in the name of their religion?
I can see stopping isn't going to happen any time soon, right. Honestly, I don't know why this is considered a liberal thing.
I'm a Texan, born and raised. I could move to North Dakota, but I will always be a Texan.
I'm an American. I could move to Germany, but I will always be an American.
However, I would have to really think about it before I could say, 'I'm a Proud American', because with in the last 10 years, this country has changed to the point that I don't recognize it.
I can understand her saying she will always be Syrian. Besides she has no reason to say, or feel otherwise.
Good then, I'll join the liberal bandwagon...911 good, Orlando good, we need to have things like that happen every day and bring in more people to continue the assault...it's all good

On the first part good to know. At least you are not a positively brown guy that came to American that the American people did not say, 'Welcome to America, now go home'. If that had happened, would you not start to think that perhaps you jumped from a fire into a fry pan? Also, it is not "pretend" in coming to an understanding of a situation.
On the second part, there are enough threads (have not researched them all myself) that have stated that the terrorist incidents have been made were by American-Muslims? The attacks, killings were done by U.S. Citizens, legal immigrants. (9/11 that was an import job)
The Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Sikhs, Druids, ect ... are not working toward setting up a government based on their ideals. They have a government in place based on their ideals and they are happy with that. Now, they may have to fight in order to keep that government.
Final, this world, use to be free world where migrations happened. People migrated from continent to continent and eventually settled.
By today's definition of terrorists, George Washington and his militia would be considered as such. This continent was being settled by immigrants traveling in from all around the globe and the fight for the type of government we have today, was brutal.
If one would like to do that today, where would they go? There is no where to go, that isn't settled already.
In the name of their religion? Protestants were of the group that began to migrate to America and form a government, in the name of their religion? Could be. 250 years ago, the people knew what they wanted and they knew what they didn't want and they set out to set it up. We had our Civil War; it was horrible with all the killings.
The Sunni (I believe it is safe to say) wish to create a narrative based on a religious war as it has been prophesied in the book of Revelation in the Christian Bible. They believe that by creating that narrative, they will instill fear in all of humanity and they will win, their form of government implemented in all parts of the globe. By our continuing to play into their narrative we are playing right into their hands.
We need to stop doing that. We need to stop calling this what it isn't. And America needs to gain a higher understanding before its to late. At the present, we are an embarrassment, and we are about to elect a leader that will tie this all up in a nice neat little package and delver it, right to their doorstep.
You asked if it was guilt that has brought about my words. It isn't guilt. Its shame. Shame that a country that has free education that can act like they haven't a clue.
Good then, I'll join the liberal bandwagon...911 good, Orlando good, we need to have things like that happen every day and bring in more people to continue the assault...it's all good
He was born in America, his parents were immigrants, legal citizens. Now why would some one born and raised in America, suddenly just go nuts? I can answer that. I bet if you thought about it, you could to. If you were being honest.

No shortage of born and raised in America folk who are serious whack jobs and they are not Muslim.
