A civilization has to do more than just oppose the most horrible cultures. It has to continually improve its own.
You improve a culture, western culture, by comparing, contrasting, and arguing the benefits and downsides of different approaches to to problems.
You will always have the whiners who say that everything is going to “hell in a handbasket” and “...these kids; in my day I had to walk five miles a day to school in three feet of snow up hill both ways.”
I work with young USN sailors most every day. They are good kids and they inspire this tired old guy. Even the boys with those Hispanic sounding names that some are so afraid of are just as American as anybody could be.
So smarmy, so sanctimonious, so condescending, you say this just like a leftist would.
Thank you for the inspiration and above all:
Keep the good work up!
A totally and completly ignorant statement. Those boys, (Hispanic illegals) are not as American as anybody could be. They are mostly mexican, they see themselves only as mexicans, or salvadorans, etc. Hate this country(love the milk, hate the cow) and it's laws, history, symbols; they like the gringo's money but despise the "gringo".
Wearing the same clothes, playing the same video games, etc. as our kids, does not make them American(U.S.).
Have you ever bothered to see the statistics about the high percentage of crime, rape, identity theft, killed American citizens, hospitals and clinics going broke; over crowed schools, and busted budgets, all because of the nice "Hispanic sounding names "?
And last, before you throw the racist card at me; I am a proud American citizen, so-called hispanic.
