A Reminder That Immigrants Are Our Strength

Here's a YouTube link to Neil Diamond's hit "Coming To America". This song reminds us that before our current wave of immigrants, wave after wave of immigrants came to America from across the globe for the same reasons, seeking freedom from oppression. Before you spit on an immigrant today, look into your own family's distant or very distant past, and you'll find they were immigrants too. Disregard any ads that play before the song.

Yes, but they came here legally. They didn't have to sneak in illegally. They also didn't depend on freebies handed out by our gov't, they made their own lives here and helped build and strengthened our country.

@IM5688 a functioning welfare system is still a government responsibility, and we know we can only expect excuses!
Rights schmites! We choose which laws to use!
