Like me, you may've received this article several
times.
I hope that you, as I did, will read it through
carefully
this time. ...I am not ignorant. I am not racist. I
have
taught and respected students from many lands. But,
our country has changed a lot since the 1980's, and we
are losing our national identity. And, we are in
danger
of losing Christmas!!! ...I recommend serious letters
to
our elected officials. Just tell 'em you don't want
to
skip Christmas!
--Sincerely,
Think about this: If you don't want to forward this
for fear of offending someone-
"YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM !!
THIS WAS IN A TAMPA NEWSPAPER:
If we continue to make the changes forced on us by
the people from other countries that came to live in
America because it is the Country of Choice??????
"Think about it
All we have to say is, when will they do something
about MY RIGHTS?
I celebrate Christmas...........but because it isn't
celebrated by everyone..............
we can no longer say Merry Christmas.
Now it has to be Season's Greeting
It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break.
Isn't it amazing how this winter break ALWAYS occurs
over the Christmas holiday?
We've gone so far the other way, bent over backwards
to not offend anyone, that I am now being offended.
But it seems that no one has a problem with that
This says it all!
This is an editorial written by an American citizen,
published in a Tampa newspaper. 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.
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.
And If God offends you, then I suggest you consider
another part of the world as your new
home.........because
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 to
take advantage of one other Great American Freedom:
................THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
It is Time for America Speak up
If you agree -- pass this along; if you don't agree --
delete it!
AMEN:
I figure if we all keep passing this to our friends
(and enemies) it will also, sooner or later
get back to the complainers, lets all try,
please!
