Thanks for posting these. Sure blows the claims by the liberal left and ethnocentrics that the employers aren't being saught after and that ICE is only targeting these poor, little innocent illegals.

" Sure blows the claims by the liberal left"
You can't really blame them. They get ALL their "news" from the Lame Stream Media!

Like ABC, NBC and CBS who during Trump's 1st year in office 90% of ALL stories about Trump were NEGATIVE, ignoring all the "good' things he accomplished.

Then we have the cable "news" networks. And we KNOW there is NO bias there!

I have asked this question of this poster a dozen times and have never received a response. My guess is that his response relates to his previously-expressed concern over "the dilution of the white race in this country via immigration" on a number of occasions and using "the white race" interchangeably with the term "culture" to make posts less overtly racist.

I have never avoided answering that question. But IMO if you don't know what American culture then you must not be an American. Let's put it this way, we are not identified as a Hispanic, Asian, etc. nation. Our culture has been based on European mainly British culture.


No, even though there may be subtle regional differences with minority cultures in every state we still have an identifying American culture which has been a blend of European cultures. Out of these cultures English has been our de facto national language, not German, Italian, Spanish, etc. Our main religion has been Christianity and we are based on a Democracy. Although we eat ethnic foods that doesn't make them American fare per se.


I find people like you who ask this question don't like our basic identifying culture and wish our identity was based on their own native cultures and languages.

Having tens of millions of immigrants who only speak Spanish is not American culture. That is Balkanization.

We need to reduce immigration so that the immigrants who are here can have time to assimilate.

I am still waiting on specifics as to what "American culture" is in your opinion. All you've done so far is outed yourself that you are against diluting anything that doesn't promote being white, Christian, and preferring hamburgers to halal.

I agree with ktoni. You've said enough to confirm that you think "American culture" is a synonym of "whiteness".

Can you explain what other than skin color a German and an Italian have in common with a Brit? I think we all know what you really mean, I just wonder why you are so scared to say it. It is the MAGA era, let that flag fly high and be honest for once.

I think you did say enough to confirm my suspicions - you use culture as code for white and European. What is an example of a proper non-ethnic American food?

Do you really think the cultural differences between El Paso and Des Moines are subtle?

How much more specific do you need me to get? It's not my opinion but fact. Wrong, I never said nor implied anything about race. Blacks are fully assimilated into American culture and just as American as whites are. We have been a blend of European cultures. We aren't however noted to be German or Italian in identity or our national de facto language would have been German or Italian.


Your suspicions are wrong. I couldn't care less about skin color or race. Funny, how facts are viewed as racism or white supremasism with your type. My desire is to retain our national identifying culture not have it changed via illegal immigration or too much legal immigration which results in colonization not assimilation.


If there are any cultural differences between the two cities you mentioned it is directly due to non-assimilation by mostly Hispanics in El Paso but their culture is a minority one not our identifying one.

Again, I ask you what comprises "our national identifying culture" other than being Christian, white, preferring hot dogs to hunan, and speaking English? Is there anything else?

To me, the premise of a "national identifying culture" is preposterous. People in New York have materially different culture than people in rural Alabama and both cultures are vastly different from those in Alaska or Hawaii. I cannot think of one common cultural trait that universally links them together.

Be sure to read the comments, most of which are funny.

That's pretty easy to solve. Take a tiny bit of our insanely large federal budget and build these people real houses to replace their shacks. Simple and easy.
