Just a little snippet I found for you Apollo...

IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans and Canadians. However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the "politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America. Our population is almost entirely composed of descendants of immigrants. However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.

This idea of America and Canada being a multicultural national identity. As Americans and Canadians, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.

If Stars Stripes and Maple Leaf's offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.

We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from. These are OUR COUNTRIES, our land, and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his or her opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about our flags, our pledge, our national motto, or our way of life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great American and Canadian freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

If you agree -- pass this along; if you don't agree -- I don't want to hear about it.

What odd article.

Countries change. That bitter person can too. When one day daughter comes home with black, mexican or chinese, it will be time to adapt.

Canada and America will change, maybe not to multicultural societies, but most likely to become multi-coloured.


As for blacks in America, they are as American as the Saxonites are Anglo-Saxon.

Apollo Apollo:

Great "opinion" piece tritium.

How does this prove your point that America is racist?

What the hell is with you man?

I lived there for 16 years, from coast to coast.. the fucking place is racist. Period.

However, at least in the USA they are in-your-face racist, in Canada they are biggots... behind you back racist.

Sorry, missed you point.

Both my ex-wives are Hispanic, and both adopted to U.S. & Canadian lifestyles.

Sure they still cook Mexican food at home, but they don't go to the DMV/DPS and insist they want to hide their face for a photo, or demand to wear rosary beads and a cross in government institutes, schools.

You appear to have a pretty big chip on your shoulder tritium. Perhaps you are mistaking racism with peoples dislike for your attitude.

What constitutes racism in your eyes? I see a black president about to be elected in the US. That means that more than 50% of the entire population would have to vote in favour of this. I see the likes of Tiger Woods and Oprah Winfrey become Billionaires in a country you refer to as racist.

Are there racist people in the US? You bet there are but no more than in any other country on the planet. If you wish to claim that racism exists worldwide including the US, you would have a basis for your arguement. To single out the US as somehow the bastion of racism is a huge stretch.

Castro had JFK assassinated but Obama is going to kiss every terrorist's ass.

[Streaker]

The US is more right-wing than any other western nation. Ergo, it is the most racist society in this group of nations.

Are you actually saying that Conservatives are racist?

More so than people of other political persuasions, yes.

Do you have proof to back up your claim?

Which states in the US are the most racist?

Are they what you'd call liberal?

[roger-roger]

Im surprised you have never picked up on this before Apollo, every so often Streaker will call a conservative member on the forum a racist, bigot or ask if they are homosexual. I think it is his firm belief that the farther right you are the less tolerant you become; sadly some on this forum support his hypothesis. Luckily a few people on the forum who are left wing are just as bigoted at those on the right, so Streaker's theory is not correct.

[Apollo]

I never realized that they had measures to see which states are more racist than others. I would love to see a link please.

Be careful of what you're claiming since even red states usually vote 40% to 45% Democrat.

I agree with you 100%. I'm still surprised to hear of such rubbish.

If the left can claim that the right is racist, then it should be fair game to call the left a bunch of freeloading welfare cases.

Quite a few right wingers do....

Apollo..you're wasting your time with anti-American
idiots like OPP, Streaker and tritium.

As world turns into a violent hate-fest, they still
will have only scorn and contempt for the one people
on earth that values freedom enough to stand up for it.
