Thought for the Day: Throw Out All Immigrants?

Posted by on Sep 2, 2012 in Blog, Politics, Rants and Raves | 0 comments

The time has come to get rid of immigrants!

That’s right — throw them out!

Who do they think they are — taking over our country?

I don’t like what these new immigrants are doing to our nation.  Wherever they go, crime increases.  Wherever they live, filth and disease follows.  They bring guns, drugs, and violence.

Sound familiar?

Oddly enough, these same toxic words could have written back in 1830 by someone else.
