Oh boy. Our “white” population is an amalgamation of many different European cultures which were as diverse and opposite to one another in their values as you can imagine and knew it. If you think the Irish and Italians were welcome in this country - you should brush up on your history. Most of them practiced their own respective culture, missed their own country, while at the same time strove for citizenship because that’s what they were expected to do. None of these loosened immigration policies.

I believe most of those immigrants agreed about one thing - liberty. Well, until recently, of course.

My point is - that’s all that matters. If you’re a purple people eater you’re welcome in the U.S. as long as you get your dang citizenship and believe and practice that one simple concept - liberty.

There is a problem with assimilation right now, but that’s because nobody is being forced to get their citizenship and stay here. It’s all being played fast and loose.

Exactly, an amalgamation of different European cultures that were diverse and opposite each other, etc etc etc. Irish, Italian, Greek, German, Russian... there were so many that is was doubtful one could dominate.

There was not the preponderance of Spanish (except for perhaps German in some areas, early in our history) and the bordering of a country that spoke the same language (Spanish). It would have been quite a different thing if the US bordered Italy or Germany... irredentism comes to mind.

And the Muslims are a totally different ball of wax. They don’t need to share a border with a majority same-culture country.

The majority of WHITES don’t seem to care much for liberty anymore, either, so that ship has sailed. There now just remains only to wait for the fall.
