Friend of mine sent me this and thought I would share it with all of you.Living in Hawaii we have a special problem with this. Most if the immigrants come here just to make money, cheat on paying their fair share of taxes and refuse to learn the American way or speak the english language. Most of them think, as do some who have been born here, that they owe nothing to America and show more allegiance to their cultural or country of birth. Enjoy....

"This was forwarded to me from a friend who is retired, USArmy and State of Hawaii, now living on the east coast.  You may or may not agree to this writer's view, but the truth is you don't see a big exodus of people leaving the USA.  Too many Immigrants and non-US citizens only want to enjoy the benefits of US Citizenship, but not the comitments and responsibilities that come with it.

SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!    Hip Hip Hooray!! Finally, someone has said what I think has been on every American's mind! This is an editorial written by an American citizen, published in a local newspaper.

"IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT!!"
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture, here in the USA.  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 comprised 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 multi -cultural 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!  ENGLISH.
"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, of Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented.  It is certainly appropriate to display it 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 and always will be part of our culture.

If the 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.  Remember, "Delta is ready when you are and they can  have you there by nightfall".

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 one other great American
freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE."
