Lowlife scumbags.

In the mid 1800s, there was a similar campaign against the Irish. - sm

They were immigrating to America to escape famine in their country, and honestly, there were some very unflattering pictures and some not very nice things said about them also. Come to think of it, all of my ancestors are immigrants except on my paternal grandmother's side who are Native Americans, but even they were called savages and some not very nice things also.

If Jesus comes back to America like the Mormons say he is going to, I wonder how He will be treated? Jesus and his ilk are not originally from America either, you know?

great points - nm - thanks

Irish Immigrants in the United States - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
History is easily verifiable. What part do you claim is not factual?

"The Irish immigrants were mostly unskilled, worked for low wages, and were often used as substitute labor to break strikes. Native-born workers worried that their own wages would decline as a result and that gains made by organized labor would be undercut. Many Americans also feared that the Irish would never advance socially but would instead become the first permanent working class in the United States, threatening the central principle of 19th-century American life: upward social mobility through hard work.

Equally disturbing to nativists was the immigrants’ religion. Would Irish Catholic immigrants ultimately be loyal to the United States or to the church in Rome? Were they beholden to their priests on political matters? Did a church headed by a pope, cardinals, archbishops, and bishops have a legitimate place in a democratic republic? And why did Irish Catholic immigrants send their children to separate parochial schools rather than using the free public system? The Irish response was that the public school boards were dominated by evangelical Protestants. Freedom to cultivate their children’s faith as they saw fit, they insisted, was what the United States was all about.

Nativists launched a sustained attack on Irish immigrants because of their Catholicism. In 1834 a mob burned down the Ursuline convent in Charlestown, Massachusetts. In 1836 nativists in New York published the Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk. An emotionally troubled young woman, Monk claimed to have witnessed debauchery and infanticide during her stay in a convent. The book became a huge best-seller. In 1844 nativist rioters burned two Catholic churches in the Philadelphia suburbs in a dispute over which Bible to teach in public schools, the Catholic one or the Protestant King James version."

Apples and oranges - illegal versus legal

that was LEGAL immigration - this is ILLEGAL - if they want to come to the US - they need to follow our laws as should the one who is trying to get them all to come illegally.....

Incorrect - sm

Study the history of immigration in America along with Supreme Court rulings on the subject, and you will find this is simply not the case.

"The original 1790 Alien Naturalization Act provided the first rules to be followed by all of the United States in the granting of national citizenship. At that time and by that law naturalization was limited to aliens who were 'free white persons' and thus left out indentured servants, slaves, and most women, all of whom were considered dependents and thus incapable of casting an independent vote. The 1790 Act also limited naturalization to persons of 'good moral character.' And the law required a set period of residence in the United States prior to naturalization, specifically two years in the country and one year in the state of residence when applying for citizenship. When those requirements were met, an immigrant could file a Petition for Naturalization with 'any common law court of record' having jurisdiction over his residence asking to be naturalized. Once convinced of the applicant’s good moral character, the court would administer an oath of allegiance to support the Constitution of the United States. The clerk of court was to make a record of these proceedings, and 'thereupon such person shall be considered as a citizen of the United States.' It is from this structure of steps and requirements that U.S. naturalization evolved."

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)

There really were no federal laws until the above, and states made their own rules/laws, some very rigid and some not so much. Some people were legal immigrants and followed the rules of the states, and some people just showed up. There were rules in place for shipmasters bringing in people and some British laws regarding foreign commerce, but the shipmasters violated the laws. People showed up any way they could and became citizens only after all manner of various assorted different hoops were jumped through, depending on where and when they entered the country and then came forward to apply for "naturalization."

Study the Know-Nothing party of the mid 1800s and how the party of bigots were on the wrong side of history and fizzled out.

"In national politics, the Know-Nothing movement reached its climax in 1856... The KnowNothings demanded an end to pauper and criminal immigration, the repeal of state laws which permitted foreigners to vote before they had completed the naturalization process, and the repeal of Congressional land grants to unnaturalized foreigners. They opposed the 'aggressive policy and corrupting tendencies' of the Roman Catholic Church, favored filling public offices with Americans by 'birth, education, and training,' opposed exclusion of the Bible from the public schools, and advocated a 21-year residence requirement for naturalization."

Study Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall and thousands and thousands of Irish, both Democrats and Republicans, paying fees to judges to become suddenly naturalized.

Excellent post - 100% true

Anyone who understands history knows this.

Define "true". Your definition seems to be - different than most people's.

[ In Reply To ..]

Define True - 100% true

[ In Reply To ..]
true adjective ˈtrü

: agreeing with the facts : not false

: real or genuine

: having all the expected or necessary qualities of a specified type of person or thing

Which is what her post was - 100% true. It's the same as most people's.

You defined truth, but don't seem to be - abiding by it.

He should and probably would be arrested for war crimes if he went to the wrong country.

And Bush was even worse than Cheney! - [shudder...]
