| IMMIGRANTS, not Americans and Canadians, MUST ADAPT | Suggest A Site |
After hearing that the state of Florida changed its opinion and let a
Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with her face
covered, I believe this is even more appropriate. Read on, please!
This is an editorial written by an American citizen, published in a
Tampa newspaper. He did quite a job. 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 comprised 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 multi-cultural community
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As
Americans and Canadians, we have our own culture, our own society, our own
language 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 a Maple Leaf 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 and in
Canada, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms 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.
