Illegal Immigration

right, but they were first.

 

This really isn't funny. I am a native american. My parents and grandparents are native americans. You are most likely a native american. In fact, over 87% of Americans are native to America.

We're talking about a current issue, aren't we?

Who calls spaghetti American?

So heavily modified from it's Italian relative it's almost unrecognizable. It evolved in Italy as tomato paste smeared on bread.

Again, who calls soccer American? It isn't even a major sport here.

And yet, it's totally American.

If you want to look at it that way, no country has a culture because all of their traditions evolved from other traditions.

That's part of a culture.

Such as a father teaching his son to throw a baseball and football?

Biscuits and gravy? Hamburgers and fries? Ice cream (I believe that too was an American invention)

Actually it was something that came from Americans (both immigrants and natives) that already had a great deal of independence from English rule, and when England tried to tighten their control, people rebelled.

Not exactly. While throughout history, a lack of hard work has resulted in starvation, punctuality is a mostly American attribute, especially when compared to Europe.

Like all the things I've already mentioned, and that you can go back and read.

To recap:
Trying to order from fast food restaurants from someone who speaks little to no English.
Dealing with many things being presented in Spanish, and not English.
Things like this:
Really?
And it results in things like this:

Then where do I go?

 

Native American. American Indian. Not native American. Capital letter.

I disagree. I need to edit this later but reading imel's stuff in the cultural appropriation thread is way more entertaining.

 

Okay, then I doubt it. They didn't really price land, and had no concept of land ownership by an individual. But that's irrelevant.

 

Your opinion in this doesn't matter.

Laws do not matter.

People are going to move to areas with a greater chance of survival. That is literally how species work.

We can either expend resources to fight them or we can benefit from them being here.

 

@xtJunior

Tell your friends and family to stop..

 

gotta get those tacos over the border tho fam

 

True

And?

If laws didn't matter every time they conflicted with our natural instincts, 99% of laws would be irrelevant, from laws regarding murder to ones regarding theft.

But laws do matter. Specifically, our laws matter, and to avoid anarchy they must be enforced.

We can either expend resources to lock up rapists, or we can benefit from them. I mean, both result in more people, right?

We can't though. The only way we could benefit would be if jobs exceeded people, and unemployment were under 1% (there will almost always be unemployment.) But that's not the case. In addition, the more jobs there are than people, the higher wages are, so no more worrying about the pesky minimum wage.

 

Illegals generally take the awful jobs tho, you can't advance too far past a starter position without papers.

 

'Awful Jobs' like store clerk.... Cashier... Fast Food cook... Yard work... Warehouse work... Things that have always been done by Americans in the past.
