They use the term "international migration" to cover up illegal immigration and/or refugees.  Montgomery Country tries to do the same thing. [/quote]

We're talking about DC fool.

My God. [/quote]

Hey dum dum, you must be too stupid to realize "international migration" is codespeak for illegal immigration. Demented liberals live all over the place from NoVA, to DC, to MoCo.

"International Migration", lol.  We've heard that one before.  They invent new terms for illegal aliens every 10 years.  Illegal aliens, to undocumented migrants, to now international migrants.  You ain't foolin' anyone.

Horray. DC imported a whole bunch of poverty from what is essentially the 3rd world and from countries with some of the highest violent crime rates in the world.  So great. Have fun paying for the schools, police, and unpaid hospital bills. [/quote]

People said the same thing when my immigrant forebears arrived in the 1880s. Actually people said the same thing when my partner's immigrant forebears arrived in the 1750s. So I think we're ok - or, if we're not, it's not because of the immigrants.[/quote]

[b]People who came in the 1750s were not immigrants.[/b] I don't follow this new trend thall all Americans over all time have been immigrants or descendants of immigrants. Also who says our country would have suffered if we had not had the periodic great waves of immigration? Maybe we would have been better off without some of them. [/quote]

Sure, they left England under more or less duress, and spent 10+ weeks on a wooden boat to cross an ocean to a different continent where they made a new life, but they weren't immigrants, because [um, why weren't they immigrants?].[/quote]

OMG. You need to read a history book. It was second and third generation by then. Do you think George Washington was born in Liverpool? So many idiots out there.[/quote]

The United States didn't exist before George Washington. Those who came over from England creates the U.S., did not immigrate to it.

But ok, if there is not concept of nationhood and citizenship and government and immigration, and we are just citizens of Earth lets just make every country have open borders, and hey, not countries or government,.just a free for all, [/quote]

They didn't immigrate [u]to the US[/u], because the US did not exist, but they still immigrated. They immigrated to places that became the US.[/quote]

Yes. So they were never immigrants to the United States. Just like them, my ancestors never been immigrants. We have been here since the nation's founding.[/quote]

They were never immigrants [i]to the United States[/i]. However, they were immigrants. If you want to brag that your ancestors immigrated before 1776, go off, I guess.[/quote]
