Immigrants always assimilate some sooner than later. All of my grandparents were immigrants but my French Grandparents hated speaking English and only did so when they had to. They were citizens, worked hard and paid taxes but they never felt a need to abandon their native tongue or their culture.

Yes, they do, naturally. My husband is an immigrant. However, the Democrats prefer to divide immigrants and keep them dependent by putting them in the victim category instead of encouraging assimilation. I am becoming a bit more Democrat, while my immigrant husband is much more Republican, btw.

Not in 2019.

BTW even a number of white nationalist/separatists are interracially married with biracial children

This has always been and will always be.

That's because these people are not white nationalists. All 47 white nationalists in this nation probably live with their own. The rest of the 300.000 million of us, including those of us, like me, who are married to someone of a different race who is also an immigrant believe that we should welcome people from anywhere LEGALLY and assimilate them into our country.

What people SAY and what they DO(and who they SCREW) are two completely different things.

Strom Thurmond was a staunch segregationist yet he had a black daughter whom he loved and provided for. That situation was not unique and there are MANY more from the past and today.

Yes, I'm well aware of Thurmond's past. That is an episode of the Democrat, Jim Crow Southern regime and doesn't exist today. To try to say that people of today are the same as people of 50 years ago is an injustice in itself.

My original response was to the post below. Your posts make no sense.
