Calling the Politically Correct Police and outraged Liberals!

My heritage, culture and traditions are being attacked. I am told “we are all immigrants.” Such proclamations hurt and I feel excluded. Research documents that five-plus generations of my family were born in America. I am an American, not a hyphenated American. I have a language, culture and traditions. My ancestors pledged allegiance to this nation, as have I. They grew my culture, created my traditions, and defended my country against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Today we don’t have immigrants, we have transient citizens and opportunists, “carpet baggers.” They come to enjoy and exploit. They don’t pledge allegiance or assimilate, they recreate their language, culture and traditions on my soil or some leave with bounty and wealth. Some say my country and I are bigoted, racist, and exploit other nations and people. If true, why do so many clamor to come here or seek our help and aid? A country without culture, language or borders ceases to be a country. We reached that point. Khrushchev said we would “fall from within.” We are. Forget the politically correct police and liberals, where are the Americans, the free and the brave? Your country is under attack! Defend it. America, love it or leave it.
