Back in 2012, Muslims and Lefties were outraged when Lewiston Mayor Robert E. McDonald attempted to stop his town from turning into a ‘little Mogadishu,’ saying, “Somali Muslim immigrants should accept American culture and leave their (violent, bigoted, mysogynistic 7th Century) culture at the door when they choose to make the United States their home.”

STAR TELEGRAM (H/T RevereRidesAgain) Ten years after a Lewiston mayor set off a firestorm by saying the city’s Somali population was growing too fast, a new mayor’s remarks about the immigrant community is sparking another wave of anger and calls for his resignation.
About 6,000 Somali immigrants have settled into this have settled in this nearly all-white, heavily French-Canadian and largely Roman Catholic city of 36,000, giving Lewiston the highest concentration of Somalis anywhere in America. The Somalis began arriving in this city in February 2001, beginning the ethnic transformation of a city that was 97 percent white. Lewiston’s Somalis now represent close to 10 percent of the population, with an additional 30 or so arriving each month. Because of the Somalis’ large families, the percentage in the schools is even higher. Living off welfare, many Somalis have moved into the city’s housing projects.
Somali immigrants and their supporters in this former mill city in central Maine say Mayor Robert Macdonald should apologize and step down for what they call repeated anti-immigrant remarks, including telling a British Broadcasting Corp. interviewer that immigrants should “accept our culture and leave your culture at the door.”
A group of about 50 protesters rallied outside City Hall on Thursday before delivering 1,400 petitions to Macdonald’s office, asking for his resignation.
The mayor’s remarks sounded like he was telling immigrants to abandon their religion, their language and their identities, said Nimo Yonis, 26, one of an about 6,000 Somali refugees who live in Lewiston and the neighboring city of Auburn. The mayor’s words were painful, hurtful and “represent hate,” she said.
“Basically, he’s telling us to forget who we were,” Yonis said. “Just leaving your culture at the door is leaving what you believe, what you stand for and who you are at the door.”
Macdonald has attempted to clarify his comments, saying immigrants should try to assimilate into American culture. He has said his comments were taken out of context, and has claimed he never said anything derogatory about Somalis.
His words have rekindled memories of a decade ago when then-Mayor Larry Raymond wrote a letter in 2002 asking Somali leaders to discourage friends and family from relocating to Lewiston, saying the city’s resources were “maxed-out.”
The outrage over his letter attracted international attention and spurred a 4,000-person rally at Bates College, urging Mainers to embrace the influx of immigrants. During the rally, a small number of white supremacists who called for the expulsion of the Somalis gathered elsewhere in the city.
With the current mayor, critics say Macdonald has made repeated inflammatory remarks about the Somali population.
He wrote in a local weekly newspaper that “submissive Somali women turn into obnoxious customers at the grocery store cash register.” He also wrote that he was tired of news stories about Somalis being treated poorly; most complaints, he wrote, came from “boo-hoo white do-gooders and their carpetbagger friends.”
He later told a reporter that immigrants shouldn’t “insert your culture, which obviously isn’t working, into ours, which does.”
I remember back in 2002. The White Nationalist groups came to Lewiston to warn people about what was coming.
The vast majority of Lewistonians laughed at the nationalists and ridiculed them. They opened their arms to the Somalians.
Now they have this. It’s hard to have much sympathy for these people. They were warned in no uncertain terms.
The only problem w Lewiston is the white trash littering the streets. We were all immigrants at one point or another. These pictures show beautiful people in a city rundown way before they arrived. I guess if you don’t like it umcan leave..as y’all would say
Put them on a boat with a liberal do gooder under each arm!
Spread this video to everyone you know. Look at the European continent. Entire cultures are going to be extinct from mass immigration. Soon Germany will no longer be Germany and so on. Poverty will reign in Europe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPjzfGChGlE
Your scum
They all need to go!! Why do we allow this bullshit to continue?? We as Americans need to stand strong and send them all home!! Where are the other 30,000 voices that live in that area…last time I checked, 30,000 is a lot greater then 6,000, band together and drive them out!!
Adapt to our country or leave. Embrace our culture. You want to stay Somalian then please catch the next plane. English is our language. Our flag is the American flag. You don’t like our laws? To bad. Go back to your mother land and keep your archaic ways and shove your laws of your land up your ass..This is the USA…not Somalia!!!!!
Ah. the twin cities of L&A. I met my wife there in 1982 and loved going to Kennedy park after work and smoke a joint and drink a couple beers with buddies. We moved away a year later and go back for a visit every year. Do I dare go and smoke a joint and drink a beer at the park today. Definitely not. The sun goes down and I hightail it out of there.
You are in MORTAL DANGER from these savages.
These primitives are the most dangerous of muslims. They are being deliberately let into the USA to cause HAVOC and death in the near future. They are Muslim Foot soldiers who will carry out the Qur’an and Hadiths commands without question.
They believe if they kill you they take can your possessions and rape your females, as is stated in the Qur’an!!
My message to somali muslims. If you want to stay RENOUNCE ISLAM and convert to Christianity. OTHERWISE f@ck off back to your African cesspit.
Hear hear!
Crusader, you are Veritas! The truth.
These people aren’t going to assimilate…EVER!
Kick their asses out before it’s too late.
Only our culture, values and identity hang in the balance. That’s all…
In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: Who lost Europe?
Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands, at the Four Seasons, New York, introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem.
Dear friends,
Thank you very much for inviting me. I come to America with a mission. All is not well in the old world.
There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic. We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.
First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe . Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem .
The Europe you know is changing.
You have probably seen the landmarks. But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another world. It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.
All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoods where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen. And if they are, they might regret it. This goes for the police as well. It’s the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless tents, with baby strollers and a group of children. Their husbands, or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead. With mosques on many street corners. The shops have signs you and I cannot read. You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity. These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics. These are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every city across Europe . These are the building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of Europe , street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe . With larger congregations than there are in churches. And in every European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the region. Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam , Marseille and Malmo in Sweden . In many cities the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim. Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods. Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.
In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to Muslims.
Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils. In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by Muslims. Non-Muslim women routinely hear ‘whore, whore’. Satellite dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of origin.
In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of Darwin . The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of Muslim sensitivity.
In England sharia courts are now officially part of the British legal system. Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves. Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels , because he was drinking during the Ramadan.
Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II. French is now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya , Israel . I could go on forever with stories like this. Stories about Islamization.
A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe . San Diego University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now. Bernhard Lewis has predicted a Muslim majority by the end of this century.
Now these are just numbers. And the numbers would not be threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate. But there are few signs of that. The Pew Research Center reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their loyalty to France . One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide attacks. The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate. Muslims demand what they call ‘respect’. And this is how we give them respect. We have Muslim official state holidays.
The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept sharia in the Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority. We have cabinet members with passports from Morocco and Turkey .
Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from petty crimes and random violence, for example against ambulance workers and bus drivers, to small-scale riots. Paris has seen its uprising in the low-income suburbs, the banlieus. I call the perpetrators ‘settlers’. Because that is what they are. They do not come to integrate into our societies; they come to integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam. Therefore, they are settlers.
Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively against non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their neighborhoods, their cities, their countries. Moreover, Muslims are now a swing vote not to be ignored.
The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet. His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized. Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would be no problem. But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, and had several marriages – at the same time. Islamic tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he had his enemies murdered and even had prisoners of war executed. Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza. If it is good for Islam, it is good. If it is bad for Islam, it is bad.
Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion. Sure, it has a god, and a here-after, and 72 virgins. But in its essence Islam is a political ideology. It is a system that lays down detailed rules for society and the life of every person. Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life. Islam means ‘submission’. Islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia. If you want to compare Islam to anything, compare it to communism or national-socialism, these are all totalitarian ideologies.
Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam ‘the most retrograde force in the world’, and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran. The public has wholeheartedly accepted the Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the aggressor. I have lived in this country and visited it dozens of times. I support Israel . First, because it is the Jewish homeland after two thousand years of exile up to and including Auschwitz, second because it is a democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating Islam’s territorial advance. Israel is facing the front lines of jihad, like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines , Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan , Lebanon , and Aceh in Indonesia . Israel is simply in the way. The same way West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
The war against Israel is not a war against Israel . It is a war against the West. It is jihad. Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us. If there would have been no Israel , Islamic imperialism would have found other venues to release its energy and its desire for conquest. Thanks to Israeli parents who send their children to the army and lay awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and dream, unaware of the dangers looming.
Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the grievances of our Muslim minorities. But if Israel were, God forbid, to go down, it would not bring any solace to the West. It would not mean our Muslim minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values. On the contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to the forces of Islam. They would, and rightly so, see the demise of Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed. The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam, but only the beginning. It would mean the start of the final battle for world domination. If they can get Israel , they can get everything. So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a ‘right-wing extremists’ or ‘racists’. In my country, the Netherlands , 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat. Yet there is a greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine. An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America – as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs. With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome , Athens and Jerusalem .
Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts. My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives. All throughout Europe , American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and whose memory we cherish. My generation does not own this freedom; we are merely its custodians. We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe ‘s children in the same state in which it was offered to us. We cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams. Future generations would never forgive us. We cannot squander our liberties. We simply do not have the right to do so.
We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from destroying the free world that we know.
Please take the time to read and understand what is written here, Please send it to every free person that you know, it is so very important.
Ingo, and your post is the perfect lead-in to this video:

They want a sincere apology?
They have that backwards.
Train your police, and clean up your town!
IF YOU DON’T…it will only get worse.
I urge all readers, especially Liberals and members of the “Maine Global Institute”, to google “Geerth Wilders, Member of the Dutch Parliament (Holland)”, and read the speech Wilders gave at the Four Seasons, New York, introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the “Facing Johad Conference in Jerusalem”.
Also, very important please see on YouTube, the documentary “The Third Jihad – Radical Islam’s Vision for America”, a Clarion Project Film.
These will help you more fully understand what we are facing in America today with the influx of Muslims into our culture.
Basiclly the same thing happened in Broward Co. Fla. in the ’90s. Back then there wasn’t a mayor to speak out against it. They will over run everything and then the schools become filled with them. I had to move north. Good luck.
If ONE day went by without a muzzie getting offended and outrage…they’d be lost! I hope the mayor hangs tough…I wish all of our politicians had half his backbone and patriotism…and not let this scum infest us and take us over.
That sign … We want a sincere apology…b.s. First of all, the mayor isn’t obama, who will no doubt stick his brown nosing nose into this! And second of all, I want all somalis apologize to us …I remember Mogadishu and what those animals did to one of our American soldiers! We were there to help them and they turned on us!
I pray that we get an American president that will take a stand against the infestation of muslims in our country.
Only permit people to vote who either a) pay taxes or b) paid taxes for a minimum of 10 years before retirement.
I am tired of the Somalians demanding anything. They are NOt American citizens. They should be thankful that they are here and adjust to our customs and our way of life. Our laws are the laws of the land. The laws are for all. Just because they come from another country, they feel that they are exempt from our laws. My feeling is this….learn the language, our customs, and stop trying to cram down our throats your religion. We worship in our way as we always have and other cultures have adapted and I suggest Somalians do the same. THIS IS OUR COUNTRY and you need to blend in. You don’t see other cultures pushing their ways onto us and I suggest that Somalians stop trying to take over Lewiston. Our children cannot pray in school therefore Somalians need to wait until they get home just like everyone else’s religion. JUST DO IT OR MOVE SOMEWHERE ELSE. There is a woman who moved here with her husband and children. She and the children stayed in Lewiston and her husband moved to another state and they are getting assistance from two states. It should be that if one state is giving assistance they should not receive any other kind of assistance from another state or from the Federal Government. Enough said…..

Ungreatful camel jockey!
The point is if you want a better way of life you have to leave some of your old life behind. America doesn’t want muslims to bring their 7th centry culture with them. America would like you imbrace the American way of life. Hard work, good manners, and a respect for the law, and your fellow man and women.
If you want to remain part of the somali (islamic) cultural experiance, there are programs that will help you return back to your country of birth. If the hospitality of the United States of America is not good enough for you.
Don’t shut the door on your way out, as i’m sure they’ll be a rush of dissatisfied somalis ready to follow you so they can get their wives nether regions mutilated, and invest in a few extra 9 yr old brides.
You will of couse stay, because you can cream the system for all its worth, and never have to lift a finger.
I sent a letter to Sen. Kyle opposing Keith Ellison’s plan to bring in more Somalians and I encourage others to write their reps.
AC, can you post the address?
The Somali swine think it is their property now.
‘he reason for this, the Syria-born extremist told Bulgaria’s newspaper 24 Chasa, is that those were “territories that belong to Islam”.
Bakri further explained: “When Islam enters a territory, it becomes Islamic, therefore Islam is under obligation to eventually liberate it.” ‘

Makes me angry they bring in these Muslim third world invaders and frankly I hope we stop allowing them into our country. If they assimilate fine but those who do not then they should go back to where they came from.
funny everywhere the muslims go disaster follows…screw them…go back to your hut in somalia … SEE YA…
First thing I would do is check there status and if they are illegal, deport them NOW.
Bonni I called and talked to the operator and she forwarded me to his sec. I said I was from CA and I support him and his actions also I had no idea this small town was infested with the infiltrators. The response was great they took my # and email. I informed them I became aware because of your website. THANK YOU BONNI.
Thanks, BW. Maybe the mayor will give me an interview?
Hey Canuck… :))
I understand your feelings and think the same…and I’m French Cdn too eh!
This is all unbelievable…but true.
They demand do they? Cheeky bastards how about an apology for dragging the bodies of naked soldiers to their place of desacration setting fire to them and hanging them up after extreme abuse fuck you and your demands you are in no place to demand anyting you ungrateful parasites
Send them back to Somalia – we don’t need more trash here than we have already.
That second picture down is the sort of sh*t you can see everyday on the streets of London everywhere you go. No-where is immune.
Go for it, Mayor!
Drive these animals out of Maine. We don’t need them!
So let me get this straight, a Community leader acknowledging a simple fact, assimilate to the culture of being an American, the lefturds howls, wailes, and demonstrates the fine art of gnashing of the teeth, and he’s the one who needs/receives their disrespect/anger, lies etc.?, yeah that makes sense, only to a mental patient, or leftist as we know them.
He will understand the average citizen, not the subject, when they acknowledge his leadership, be it in the next election, or will surrender to the hords, illegal moochers of our inheritences of freedoms, one must stand on moral grounds to reflect leadership and any who will not acknowledge this one understanding, in terms of a leader, will not understand anyway, there is just no cure for stupid-period. The allience of the lefturds-brothers from their hood, islam are a mutual benificial pack of vipers in need of a time and place of, how shall we say it, lessons relearned or they too will be the unfortunate loosers of the rightous Patriots and his inheritences. Can’t have it both ways, can’t serve two masters either. Try as they may, only the ones who fail in the moral codes of humanity are the unfortunate who for whatever reason, made their beds and will have to sleep in them. So it is totally understandable, yet not justified in any manner, they display their supposed moral superiority while clinging to the louder then you vioces of shut the hell up, you bigots and they wonder why some of us in the near future are going to be gunning for them. Stupid does as stupid goes, I guess. About all I can respond to this is, good luck, you’re going to need it and then some. p.s. scumbugs, we will never forget or forgive for your selfish treason.
Semper Fi
6,000 out of a population of 36,000 is 16.6% not 10%. This town is in BIG trouble!
speaking of garbage….

America is a place where every religious gathering is tolerated and the Somalis know it. But it is NOT a place where the native inhabitants must pay fo the very livelyhood of any single cult. The muslims want special accomodations. Fine. Let them pay for it themselves. The muslims want special menus. Fine. Let them provide it for themselves. The muslims demand that they have spescial places to pray. Fine . let them provide it at their own expense. These people, not only Somalis, came here of their own accord. They were not forced to come to America. They have no right to expect Americans to provide their living or to change their American laws and culture to accomodate the culture these people alledgedly fled from. This is America.l It has its own culture. It has its own means of accepting religions of different practices. America has become the greatest nation in the world by being America. It is not, and never will be Somalia,Arabia, China, or anything but America. If for any reason, people cannot accept that and also become Americans, they are encouraged to leave.
So the Somali muslimes of Lewiston, Maine “want a sincere apology”?!!….How’s this::”We are soooo sorry you are a bunch of filthy leeching ASSLIFTERS”!!…..Assimilate, adapt or STFU and GTFO!!!…..You are NOT WELCOME!!!……And God Bless Mayor McDonald!!
At least we will be able to tell who the enemy is!
Can the state force that on a city?
Is the city required to house them?
If so, put them in cages. A human zoo.
jfp, Obama is forcing them on primarily Bible Belt states
He should hire some hard hitting dirty cops like the ones that got fired in New Orleans and LA.
Hahahahahha! Excellent idea!
there’s a lot of swamp they can live in. make really fat gators
Somali muslims…even other muslim nations consider them a plague.
These are the most 3rd world looking immigrant muzzies I have ever seen in America. WTH? How can these backwards looking, illiterate freaks bring any good contribution to this country??? Nothing to offer, and sucking our govt funds dry.
Somalia is full of muzzies, what are these escaping? Answer, nothing, this is another obama cultural experiment being shoved down our throats.
the mayor is right. they want anyone out who stops the filth these immigrant illegals bring. I for one am tired od seeing muslims and terrorists and illegals change American into slum areas..the areas get bigger. who are they to demand a mayors removal? They do not belong here.
Ya gotta do what ya gotta do… chase them out with sticks and stones.
I feel very sorry for your community. French Canadians should come
back home since America has been so damn muzmelized.
I looked at the pictures and was SHOCKED to see them dressed like
Haloweeners! Yeah…there should be a law that they dress like North
Americans.
Soooooo sorry that you have to live there!
what happenes when all the cities rescorces run out and no mobney to pay for them.as before all white people left the city center because the black people wanted it now it a slum with rape- muggings and killings, not safe to walk down a street at night can’t even give trhe property away.
If you have every watched a bunch of seagulls or pigions when someone was feeding them you start feeding one and soon you have 20 or 30 or more pecking for food. You stop feeding them and they fly away. The only way to stop this is to stop feeding them. If they can’t feed them then don’t breed them. It is fricking crazy that America will destroy itself trying to help the rest of the world. Most of them are, to me, illegal, obama brought them here, take his paycheck from him to pay for their keep. Also with wild animals the more for they have the more they breed and have little critters, take away the gravy train and they stop breeding. Limit the number of children to no more than two if they are transplants or refugees until they get their citizenship. Stop the free rides. Peace to all non-muslims who have a frickin brain and agree.
I emailed him also to keep up the good work.
Here’s Lewiston in 2009… (they kept coming and coming,,,)
http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2009/01/16/the-refugees-who-saved-lewiston.html
Susan, Daily Beast is a far left rag
look at all the …muslims
look at all them sad victims as they live and r fed ,Makes me want to puke on the left ,all of them
I do hope they have a very strong police department with NO Muslims in it.
I emailed him, but I have to tell you- I think Lewiston is sunk.
Pink, yes, thanks to the leftie scum who encourage this.
fu somalia scum ,get the f out ,we remember the helicopts ,now get out !
It is insane to think any community can sustain an ever growing drain on society before it collapses. I live by a big deer population. If I throw an apple out for one deer in mere minutes I have a steady stream of deer heading towards the food source. This story and all the rest remind me of my moocher deer. And when they aren’t mooching they are adding to the population. And every year it is over populated. And then I get a letter they are culling them.
Pebbles, culling Muslims, now there’s an idea!
BNI, I lived in Lewiston Auburn for a few years. It’s amazing to me to think that these Muslims would be embraced here. Maniacs are not good with new comers, as in someone coming from one state in the US to another.
They are set in their ways, they don’t change for anyone. It’s really a when in Rome area. They expect the new comer to adjust to them. I guess this was the reason why the Mayor said the things he did.
I think he has the support of most Maniacs. I feel really bad for the people of Lewiston Auburn area. There are some slum like areas that I could see being filled by these Somali Muslims, but no matter what, these people must stand out like a sore thumb. This is so upsetting and disturbing. I feel really bad about what these Maniacs must be enduring.
I hope they know not to vote in Obozo who opened up the doors to intergrate these Somali Muslims. I support the Mayor 100%
Mom, “Maniacs?” I didn’t know they called them that. It’s funny how MSM articles have credited the Somalis with saving Lewiston, ME, as if enlarging the welfare rolls saves anything.
The Mayor of Lewiston should stand strong. Thanking God for the stand he has taken against the degrading use of the American welfare system. Thank you Robert Macdonald for standing up for American values. Welfare and gov. subsidized living should be a humiliating alternative to hard work and we are paying for these people to live here. Remind them we have standards. We are not ever going to go down to their level. There are many kind hearted people who are more than willing to help someone in need but these people make demands before they have even contributed anything to our society. They should look around and see that they are turning our country into their third world mess. They should ask any American how did they earn their job, home, car instead of demanding to be treated better they have to prove themselves. It’s the American way. This country rewards hard work and decent living. When my husband left me with two small children I vowed never to go on welfare. Sleeping on the floor in my parents home I studied life insurance manuals and waitressed and left my children one in diapers and a 4 yr. old, sometimes unattended to make a way for us. God protected us and I saved enough for a house in 18 mos.! I worked and saved and put my one son through trade school and the other qualified for the nuclear school in the navy. Both with a great American work ethic! This country is for those who will rise to the occasion and do the hard thing. Try and don’t give up. i never had any more children but the sons I have are paying taxes to help house these people. I will not let a woman or ever a man tell me that he has to take gov. money. Thank you Robert. I am every American woman who has worked and raised a family by herself in this great land! I am praying for you to be strong. We will not listen to their lies that what you said is hate language. You are challenging them to BE Americans or leave. I stand with you.
You makes me laugh. You don’t have a lot of arguments. You just talk about God. Oh and the last time i checked, god hates racist bigotry.
