Federal appeals court deals blow to President Obama’s amnesty

There was no "legal" or "illegal" migration here for thousands of years. It's only a racist recent thing to build fences to keep people out.

 

Law of Nations says immigration should be unhindered. Emigration in history has been sacred.

Sacred, a word you might like.

 

Invading Mexico would end this illegal immigration problem. I'd rather invade Canada but Mexico would be a huge upgrade over Iraq and Afghanistan. We should only invade countries that the average citizen wants to visit.

 

I'm not worried about the lack of water. Nor am I worried about someone with not-white skin somehow harming me.

This country was built on unfettered immigration

 

I'm not an anarchist.

You can pretend what I "believe" all you want. It doesn't make it right.

But you obviously believe there are tens of millions of people here pillaging or something. I see it occasionally during riots, but those look like "real americans" (HA HA) to me.

I'm the one that favors giving these people the right to work at wages per our laws or that are even better as negotiated. You want to take it away from them.

You're not a real american. You're a canadian. You turned your back on your people. Blah blah.

 

Throwing around the word "ignorant" now?

Middle colonies[edit]
Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware formed the middle colonies. Pennsylvania was settled byQuakers from Britain, followed by Ulster Scots (Northern Ireland) on the frontier and numerous German Protestant sects, including the German Palatines. The earlier colony of New Sweden had small settlements on the lower Delaware River, with immigrants of Swedes and Finns. These colonies were absorbed by 1676.[8]

The middle colonies' settlements were scattered west of New York City (established 1626; taken over by the English in 1664) and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (established 1682). The Dutch-started colony of New York had the most eclectic collection of residents from many different nations and prospered as a major trading and commercial center after about 1700. The Pennsylvania colonial center was dominated by the Quakers for decades after they emigrated, mainly from the North Midlands of England, from about 1680 to 1725. The main commercial center of Philadelphia was run mostly by prosperous Quakers, supplemented by many small farming and trading communities with a strong German contingent located in several small towns in the Delaware River valley.[9]

Starting in about 1680, when Pennsylvania was founded, many more settlers arrived in the middle colonies. Many Protestant sects were encouraged to settle there by freedom of religion and good, cheap land. Their point of origin was about 60% British and 33% German. By 1780, in New York, about 27% of the population were descendants of Dutch settlers, about 6% were black and the rest were mostly English with a wide mixture of other Europeans. New Jersey and Delaware had a majority of British with 7-11% German-descended colonists, about 6% black population, and a small contingent of Swedish descendants of New Sweden. Nearly all were at least third-generation natives.

Though relatively few immigrants who landed at Ellis Island were denied entry, the 2% that were excluded often equaled over a thousand people a month during peak immigration years.

 

Brilliant?

I don't get it.

 

Who was here before immigration began in the 1600s? Not people who made this country.

No talking point, just obvious truth.
