No, it wasn't an insult, just my opinion. I think that kind of thinking is narrow-minded. Just like you post your opinion, I posted mine. Not a big deal.

Im confused berkley69 you are proud to be a bigot? I dont agree with alot of what ahippiechick says but I grew up in detroit in a totally mixed neighborhood. My mom was caucasian and my dad puerto rican, I had blacks and Arabic's living in my building and learned to love Arabic cooking. I have an apreciation for all cultures. I believe however that if people can be proven to be militant muslims they shouldnt be allowed in the country but just to say we should stop letting anyone in? What country do you think this is. And I can pretty much guarantee that you arent just white...almost noone is. And I know just about as much white trash in my area as any other race.

The year is 1907, one hundred years ago......

Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.




"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."




Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Teddy had it dead on. Unfortunately this was one of his only policy beliefs that was solid. He had a tendency towards communistic ideals.

Sorry about the screw up on the poll options, I did them in the order the poll site ran them and when I realised the mistake I can't seem to edit to fix the problem.

Well when people talking about sealing the border usually it's about the border of mexico and america. Unless you truely mean sealing of the entire country from all immigrants.
