After hearing that the state of Florida changed its opinion and
let a Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with
her face covered this is an editorial written by an American
citizen, published in a Tampa newspaper. He did quite a job;
didn't he? Read on, please!
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT. I am tired of this nation
worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their
culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have
experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans.
However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the
"politically correct" crowd began complaining about the
possibility that our patriotism was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against
anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America. Our
population is almost entirely made up of descendants of
immigrants. However, there are a few things that those who have
recently come to our country, and apparently some born here,
need to understand. This idea of America being a multicultural
community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our
national identity. As Americans, we have our own culture, our
own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This
culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials,
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought
freedom.
We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish
to become part of our society, learn the language!
"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some
Christian, right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto
because Christian men and women, on Christian principles,
founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is
certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools.
If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of
the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.
If Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam,
then you should seriously consider a move to another part of
this planet. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to
change, and we really don't care how you did things where you
came from. This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle. Our
First Amendment gives every! citizen the right to express his
opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so. But
once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about our
flag, our pledge, our national motto, or our way of life, I
highly encourage you take advantage of one other great American
freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
