I’ve seen so much confusion between the two, at first I thought it was trolls, but it’s so consistent that I’ve begun to wonder if they actually don’t understand.

    Was it like your great grandparents? Arrive at Elis Island, read “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.” On the statue of Liberty. Arrive without a passport or drivers license. Get your name shortened and welcome to America? Or are you 100 percent native American?

        The ones with superior technology and firepower? Well the immigrants that came made contracts and treaties with them. Then they continued to break them. Your statement doesn’t make you the good guy in our current situation it makes you scared and weak.

          I have enjoyed being a “numbered sheep” thanks for asking. I have a nice house, cars & wonderful family, I’m living the American dream. Hopefully you can find enjoyment from life too.
