    Normally I wouldn't either but after seeing what all these who follow Islam are doing, I did my research to see just what makes them tick and what the world can expect if they invade our shores or infiltrate societies. What I found is really mind blowing and disturbing because they have a master plan that involves ALL societies. Their plan and philosophy is not, "To each it's own" let everyone live the way they wish but rather they've been brainwashed to go out into society and force their will on the infidels.

    They've been taught to take advantage and exploit the kindnesses of others particularly the mindset of Christians knowing they will turn the other cheek and turn no one away from the door. In their homelands they murder Christians, Jews, and rape and pillage all in the name of Allah because those ideologies are counterintuitive and doesn't fit their agenda.

    Although all or most of us want to be kind understanding human beings and give everyone a break, we must be smart enough to research and know what we're dealing with first. Remember, once they've been let in, there's no getting them out. Living with them next door with their mindset puts all society at risk like sending your daughters into a hungry lion's den knowing the outcome would be devastating. Please do your research.

    Again ... Abe Lincoln Freed the slaves.And Bull Connor was
    No Republican.Jim Crow and KKK were democrat driven.
    Today the new democrat drive is to Impeach and Besmirch
    any semblance of humanity from the current sitting president.
    Basically because he Dared to make a display over making
    America Great again.
    The Dems turned that into Making Trump despicable.
    Real americans know all this.

    Funny, but I named a few things that are as American as apple pie, all of which came from non anglo cultures, but didn't exist when the founders were around.

    And you had to manufacture a lame excuse for dismissing the obvious.

    Of couse, my point is the nearly all immigrants do eventually embrace the culture of their new home. They just don't do it instantaneously, as you seem to expect (of course, your ancestors didn't either, but no doubt that's "different").

    Can you cite the exact phrasing by Tucker, in quotes, that you take issue with? I attempted to find such in the link you provided, but was unable to do, and after the 10th time clicking 'continue anyway' for a security warning, I quit.

    Its my suspicion that he either didn't say diversity was bad, or he said cultural diversity was bad, which is worlds away from saying racial, ethnic or ideological diversity is bad.

    Quit telling me to research, I have, and don't disagree with you, concerning the radical elements.

    No doubt there is an over abundance of mentally ill getting their hands on guns. At least three of the school shootings were done by people with autism. Aside from those mental illnesses, people are reeling from all the division brainwashing and hate being asserted by the Obama administration and globalists who are propagandizing several idiotic movements to the point people are beginning to lose it mentally.

    Socialists are brainwashing our kids in schools and universities all across the nation pushing for gun control because if or when they are successful changing the country to socialism, the masses will be defenseless to fight back. While doing this they are sending masked Antifa protesters into the streets and stirring other movements like black lives matter to hopefully enrage and stir the masses to civil war which will then allow them to remove weapons via Marshall Law. It's all tied together and really complicated but just realize this, several factions either working together or alone are currently on the march attempting to take over the U.S, because they know if successful, all other nations will fall soon after.

    Well,, this seems to sum up what they must be yelling at you out of your AM radio, but not much of it is true.

    Abe Lincoln freed the slaves. That's the only part you got right.

    Bull Connor was no Republcian in 1964. By 1990, he was a hard core one. He was always a far right wing, and like most of his ilk, he drifted to the GOP in the two decades after the Civil Rights Act was passed.

    Of course, in right wing talk radio, the Republcians are still the party of Lincoln, even as they race bait and attack anything that isn't lilly white. The false conflation of Lincoln with Trump serves as balm to bigots, but has little real basis in truth.

    Contrary to what you disc jockeys tell you. the Democratic ;leadership is not actively planning on impeaching Trump. In fact, the only people using the word now are right winger busy making up false claims about what Democrats are planning.

    Trump will only be impeached under two scenarios. First, his guilt must not only be provable in court, it must be obvious to the simplist member of the general public. The second, is that there are the votes to convict.

    No one has to work hard to besmirch a loser like Trump. All they have to do is watch him be himself. His ludicrous rantings about Puerto Rico are only the latest example.

    Although technically, I agree with you, in actuality, culture is correlated with skin color. The type of assimilation in which skin color doesn't matter doesn't occur in my country. So we are creating a brand new, balkanized country.

    It may be different in your country, but in the US, skin color determines which attitudes and political positions are acceptable for you to have.

    So the Indians were wrong to oppose European settlement? They should have just rolled over and said, "diversity is our strength?"

    The latest editor hired by the NYT enjoys the activity as do many of her friends.

    Southern democrats wrote and implemented Jim Crow.
    Not a single Republican office holder ever owned slaves.
    Dinesh D'Souza wrote a book and a hit documentary movie
    explaining it.
    The KKK originated around Democrats.Had a seat at the 1924
    DNC Convention.
    I don't know anything about Bull Conner switching party loyalty.
    But it can happen when one grows old.
    George Wallace who ran 3 times for the Presidency and was
    a notorious Governor { a Bigot } had a conversion later in life.
    He admitted how wrong and sorry he was for spreading bigotry
    towards and about Blacks.
    His aid { black butler } who stood by him after he was wheelchair
    bound was one of the reasons.
    I don't know that L.B.J. { another bigot } ever demonstrated that.
    Furthermore I don't cotton writing or spreading lies.
    That is what Democrats live to do.

    Of course they didn't exist. Sushi didn't exist either.

    The nation is better as a whole by the contributions of immigrants who have shared their cultures with it. However, the one thing that is irrefutable, is that they assimilated and became Americans.

    Do you think the US should allow certain immigrants to practice things that are common in their home countries, but illegal here?

    I don't have any problem with citizens with Chinese backgrounds celebrating the Chinese New Year. It's interesting to learn about the history of their own cultures.

    But we should always expect people who come to live here to abide and embrace the basic core values of this Nation.

    No Nation has survived in history by not requiring this basic principle.

    The only people that celebrate Cinco de Mayo are white Americans. Same with St. Pat's day. It's a minor celebration in Ireland. It's a huge celebration in the U.S. Dublin didn't have a St. Patrick's day parade until 1931. Boston had it's first in 1737.

    Here's the thing:

    Conservatives view ANY and ALL racial/ethnic diversity, regardless of who and how many, as a bad thing.

    Liberals view ANY and ALL racial/ethnic diversity, regardless of who and how many, as a good thing.

    The Truth is somewhere in the middle.

    Personally, I don't see racial/ethnic diversity as guaranteed positive or a guaranteed negative.

    Its just a thing. It could go well, it could go badly.

    If the majority society is welcoming and open and hospitable to the newcomers, things will work out. If the newcomers are open to assimilating and adopting new ways and ideas, things will work out.

    But if the majority society is bigoted, close minded, unwilling to accept the newcomers, seeks to discriminate against them, the newcomers will turn inward and resist any thoughts of assimilating.

    I get it.It's fun facts time.
    The Irish,The Italians and the Germans were the biggest
    example of those who immigrated to the U.S. at the Turn-of-the Century
    1900 era.Thru Ellis Island.Eventually settling in N.Y.city.
    Blacks on the other hand migrated North to Chicago and
    other big northern cities to escape the clutches of Southern
    bigotry which was practiced by mostly Democrats.

    Diversity reduces social cohesion. People, even of the same ethnic group, trust each other less in diverse neighborhoods.

    The incident shows that maligning whites because of their race is acceptable to the most influential editorial board in the country and is the flagship opinion setter for liberals.

    I am afraid social science doesn't agree with you.

    ----------------------------------

    But a massive new study, based on detailed interviews of nearly 30,000 people across America, has concluded just the opposite. Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam -- famous for "Bowling Alone," his 2000 book on declining civic engagement -- has found that the greater the diversity in a community, the fewer people vote and the less they volunteer, the less they give to charity and work on community projects. In the most diverse communities, neighbors trust one another about half as much as they do in the most homogenous settings. The study, the largest ever on civic engagement in America, found that virtually all measures of civic health are lower in more diverse settings.
