Wow the DAR snobs out in force tonight. I’m proud descendent of 19th and 20th century immigrants who came to a country where previous arrivals had built something, and who helped to build something even better, working in factories and building America’s bridges and roads to create the world’s greatest economy.
Exactly. What happened to the melting pot? Our diversity is our strength. These fools are just swallowing the GOP fear-pie.
That was my post but I’ll add the my Italian immigrant uncles signed up, to the man, all six of them, to fight in WW2, including in the Battle of the Bulge and one spent a year in a German POW camp. Then came back and did back breaking work on the booming post war economy. So I don’t want to hear it from PP about who built this country. And I’m sure almost everyone in this board has a similar story (if they know their family history) of immigrants who build this country.
