IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or his
culture.

Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the
majority of Americans.

However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the" politically correct"
crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a
better life by coming to America.

Our population is almost entirely composed of descendants of immigrants.

However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and,
apparently, some born here, need to understand.

This idea of America being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our
sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans, we have our own culture, our own
society, our own language and our own lifestyle.

This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by
millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other
language.

Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language.

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing political
slogan. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian
principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to
display in on the walls of our schools.

If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new
home, because God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously
consider a move to another part of this planet.

We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care
how you did things where you came from.

This is OUR COUNTRY, our land and our lifestyle.

Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will
allow you every opportunity to do so.

But, once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about our flag, our pledge, our
national motto, or our way of life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of another
great American freedom.
