Ilhan Omar Slams America to 400 High School Students as ‘Unjust’
Breitbart ^ | July 9, 2019 | Kristina Wong

Posted on 07/10/2019 8:50:35 AM PDT by rickmichaels

A recent profile of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said the freshman lawmaker slammed America as unjust in a recent speech to high school students, denigrated America for not meeting her expectations, and even criticized her fellow Democrats in Congress.

According to the profile by the Washington Post, Omar recently addressed 400 high school students in Minnesota about her personal experience in coming to America from a Kenyan refugee camp, and how it was nothing like she expected.

“I grew up in an extremely unjust society, and the only thing that made my family excited about coming to the United States was that the United States was supposed to be the country that guaranteed justice to all,” she told the students, according to the Post. “So, I feel it necessary for me to speak about that promise that’s not kept.”

She later told the Post about how an orientation video she watched before coming to America looked nothing like what she experienced after she came to New York City, calling it cramped, dirty, and populated by panhandlers.

“This doesn’t look like the America you promised,” Omar said she told her father. Her father replied, “We’re not in our America yet.”

She said she learned she was the “extreme other,” after she arrived in America at 12. “I was black. I was Muslim. I also learned I was extremely poor and that the classless America that my father talked about didn’t exist,” she said.

She also told students a story she later admitted could be somewhat fabricated, about an old African American lady who had been arrested for stealing a $2 loaf of bread to feed her “starving 5-year-old granddaughter.”

America is what YOU make it

You are not entitled to anything

Rights are not entitlements

Entitlements are not rights

Go get a real job, and report back

When the Left says “unjust” they usually mean “too just” - a place where their bad decisions are swiftly punished by reality.

She needs to spread this message far and wide: Don’t come to America, it is full of meanies. Will any elected Republican have the guts to suggest that she leave and take a few million with her?

Instead of admitting immigrants who love and value America and want to help build it, let’s admit immigrants who hate America and want to destroy it. That will be a big help.

Dear Madame Omar,

You are correct about the US. We are not deserving of your presence, so, haul your dierriere back to Somalia. You are much more deserving of such a great, prosperous, welcoming country.

Hugs and Kisses,
Chgogal

So, in other words, because America didn’t meet the unjust and impossible, perfect picture which YOU and YOUR FAMILY painted in your minds, that means it needs to become a crap-hole country like the one you were trying to escape?!?

How does THAT make sense?!?
