Egyptians Protest In Sacramento

If you ever find one of these 'new Americans' who will answer that they will stick with the US,
PLEASE BE SURE AND LET US KNOW WHICH ONE IT WAS.
Thanks.

I have stated this a number of times before; the "new immigrants", as opposed to the immigrants in the 18th & 19th centuries, have technology that allows them to keep in touch with the home country better and cheaper. Technology has allowed modern immigrants to keep tabs with the old country. Most immigrants view their time here in the U.S. not as setting up a new life in a new country, but rather they look at their time here as an opportunity to make money and bring the rest of the family over. You see this in virtually all of the new immigrant communities from the south of the border types, to Asians, to Arabs and to Armenians.

Yup, you're correct. They consider the US new ground to grow the same crop. They bring some good, but usually the same weeds that killed what was growing in the old land.

Your right about that Pocho

How long before we have disorder because many 'immigrant Americans' want to change America to what ever they left behind?
It could become worse than Egypt is at this moment.

Eh. At least egypt got off their butts and eliminated a dictator who didn't give a damn about them. I marched at all the townhalls and teaparties and nothing came out of it. Except of course, a bit of social condemnation, being a man in my early 20s ...

I wish Americans would show the kind of dedication to our country the Egyptians have shown to theirs.

Besides, now that their country is free, they can start returning to it, right?

I wouldn't get too enthusiastic about this just yet, Bear Flag. If the Muslim Brotherhood takes over, it's going to be deep doo-doo for a lot of people, especially in Israel.
