Well maybe then we should start striving for a country where other cultures are tolerated and thus eliminating the cultural tensions. Or, we could take your "throw them out" approach...

WTF? Tolerance is what the US is all about... that's not even the issue here. The issue is whether or not people should completely ignore American culture when they come to this country.

What's American culture? It's a mix of most cultures. What are you talking about?

No its not. Amercian culture is a direct, DIRECT descent of the British culture, and to a lesser extent the European culture.
Not in the SDouthwest you ignorant tool.FYI you muddle minded Racial Supremeist, the Southwest was part of Spain and Mexico for hundreds of more years than it was part of America and it never had a European Flavor

The only ignorant tool in this thread is the one resorting to slanderous attacks to attempt to express their opinion. An opinion which, I might add, is flawed to begin with.
How is it slanderous when it rings of the truth. In my opinion youy are all that I suggested you were an more. Your previous posts in this thread demonstrates that nothing I said about you was slanderous at all and actually was pretty accurrate.

Regarding my statement about the Southwest, if you can pull your mental facilities together maybe you can show where I was wrong!

Nope. If someone else asks surely, but I see no reason to educate one as blind an ignorant as you. So, I'm not wasting my time. I didnt attack you, I didnt attack Mexicans. And yet you think of me as some Racial Supremist. Well, learn Engrish Compehension or something, gain a little worldly knowledge outside of your 19" of CRT and we'll talk.

LOL, Ignorant? I'm not the one who stated that American Culture is directly based on British and European Culture. Remember, there's more to this country than Kansas Toto!

I can agree with that. It was definitely better than your first post in this thread.



Edit: BTW, a nested quote is when you qoute a quote of a quote, etc. This is the worst kind of nested quoting.

Now you confuse fact with ideas. I never said I AGREED with Hitlers ideas, which I do not. I'm saying from a purely factual standpoint, IF Hitler had won, my grandmother, being suarkraut for breakfast German would have been very well off. This naturally would have carried down through the family to me.
Its like saying if Japan had won the war the Japanese would be better off. They would be. Or like saying that having US jobs go overseas is good for developing countries. It is, but its sure hard on us Americans.
Now your twisting my words. Impressive.

Your statement speaks for itself, unless you dont know what your saying. If sHitler had one all Jews would be dead. In fact all non blue eyed, blonde haired people would have been exterminated.

Face it, your a neo nazi.

Well pray tell, what else is this culture based on? Let me guess..... Native Indians? Nooo, dont see much of their culture in ours.... OH! The Australians.... No, no wait.... OH! The Koreans... No, not those either.... I'm kinda drawing a blank here, help me out...
Who founded this country again? Oh yes, Europeans.... Silly me.

No, he's not. His statement, while unusual, betrays nothing other than an eye for reality.

Fantastic!! NOW your changing your arguments. I guess the only thing to say is

Your statement denotes nothing of support for the "good ole usa". How was I able to deduce that from your statement?:

You added the clarification. Your just pissed because I called you on it.

You are right now that I think about it as Spain is in Europe. So the Spanish Culture can be included in your statement that America did derive it's culture from European Countries (as did Mexico, Cuba and the rest of the Western Hemisphere)

Spanish immigrants were definately not of the majority. Most were from northern Europe, which is most certainkly not under Spanish influence (At least during the time of the immigrations)

Besides, when the hell did this become a discussion about immigration?? I'm talking about illegal aliens..... :confused:

Not at all mad. Simply honest. Its like argueing with a 5 year old. Reason doesnt apply. Thus, why bother even carrying on with it, if you cant understand reason? In essence, you ARE simply trolling. You throw out baseless attacks and hope for engered responses. Wont work here I'm afraid, I'm cool and collected like a duck on a pond.

I should also add, I'm trying to have a civil discussion about the effects of illegal immigrants on our country. You seem determined to undermine this and have the whole thread degrade itself into mere name calling and slander. I personally dont really wnat that. I guess its the sign of being an intelligent individual.

As a group, European immigrants were mainly of German and I believe swedish descent. And there was also a helluva lot of Irish, Italian and Russian immigrants as well. But, again as a whole, I believe Spanish immigrants made up a very small amount of the whole.

LOL, The Southwest US and Florida was owned by Spain. THere weren't many Northern European Immigrants until the Mid 19th century (well at least in the SW) To say that the Spanish culture there isn't predominant is ignorant. A Majority of the Towns and Cities in the SW have Spanish names.

In that regards your right. I misunderstood what you were referring to. Most of South America was claimed by Spain. However, the immigrants overthrew the Spanish rule and claimed the land for themselves. Thus Spanish culture was there but Mexico as we know it was still establishing its own identity

the thing that grates me is when i see truck and either on the top of the windshield or across the back window of the truck they plastered in big letters that span all the way across the state they came from. The area i live in the most poplular ones i see are

Chihuahua
Guerrero
Veracruz

If where you came from is so great, GO BACK!!! Its no different when I lived in Germany, I would never plaster a banner that said COLORADO across the back window of my car. I consider it very rude and disrespectful.
