Why Can't You Just Go Back To The Shithole You Came From?

Lying Donnie Dotard fits. And all you can scrape out is four of five lies by an obscure Durbin? And please check out the graphics in this link.

Trump just denied his ‘shithole’ comment. In the process, he confirmed the worst.

In light of Trump’s apparent claim that he wants to prioritize people from countries such as Norway, the uglier white nationalist cast of all of this is inescapable. Trump’s fellow travelers have gone to great lengths to obscure this basic reality. In a now-infamous exchange, CNN’s Jim Acosta asked White House immigration hard-liner Stephen Miller whether Trump’s policies are designed “to engineer the racial and ethnic flow of people into this country.” Miller reacted with outrage and repeatedly cast the goal as reducing the mere numbers of immigrants — ostensibly to protect U.S. workers from competition — which he said was in keeping with previous periods of lower immigration.

It is very hard to disentangle the goal of reducing the overall numbers of immigrant arrivals from the goal of shifting our current ethnic and racial mix. But Trump has now left little to no doubt that the real animating impulse is the latter.

Whell and his hero Donny would surely have hated early Norwegian immigrants here, due to their social activism. Buncha lefties! Joe Hill!

The Scandinavian tradition of collective action also led many immigrants to take active roles in American social reform movements. From the 1840s on, Scandinavian immigrants were well represented in the movement for the abolition of slavery, and with the onset of the Civil War volunteered in great numbers to fight, overwhelmingly for the Union.

Many Union companies consisted entirely of Scandinavians, and one company, from the tiny Bishop Hill community in Illinois, was made up solely of Swedes. At the turn of the century, the writer and Danish immigrant Jacob Riis led a journalistic crusade to expose the horrific living conditions endured by the inhabitants of America's urban slums, which included many new immigrants. Riis' book How the Other Half Lives, a classic of muckracking literature, brought about a great wave of protest and led to major housing reform in the U.S.

Many Scandinavians also took an active role in the burgeoning U.S. labor movement. Swedish, Norwegian, and Finnish miners and loggers participated in strikes throughout the Great Lakes states and the mountain West, sometimes as members of the radical Industrial Workers of the World union, also known as the Wobblies. The Swedish immigrant Joe Hill, born Joel Hägglund, was a prominent IWW member and wrote many of the union's rallying songs. After Hill was executed for murder in 1914, under what his sympathizers claimed were false pretenses, he became the subject of folk songs himself.

Naturally, Donny’s racist remarks were wildly popular among the neo-nazis.

Yes, you fail to see. That is the one and only accurate statement in your post.

Clearly our schools are failing our democracy, when we have fools like Zero electing fools like Trump to the presidency. We must ensure our schools are funded, staffed by informed, well educated teachers, and kept free from religion and politics. Our democracy is always at risk, now more than ever.

Democracy requires informed and active voters who seek information to make wise decisions on behalf of themselves and the common good. Such voters must understand their own rights and freedoms, as well as those of others, as they deliberate together to reach mutually agreeable policies and practices. They must be equipped to engage in free and critical inquiry about the world and the problems surrounding them. And, they need the imagination and creativity to construct, revise, add to, and share the story of democracy with others, including the next generation.

The relationship between public schooling and democracy is best understood and fulfilled when it is not just a unidirectional one, where public schools support democracy, but rather when it moves in both directions, with the formal and cultural elements of democracy shaping the governance, content, and practices of schools. In this way, democracy is not just the end of public schooling, but also the means by which we achieve it.

Where are schools have really failed is when you are so unfamiliar with the planet you are actually on that you don't know that Haiti, and a handful of countries in South America, Africa, and the Middle East are shit holes.

And, the only reason the leftys want a mass influx of people from these countries is that they are stupid enough to vote Democrat.

And, the reasons the Norwegians cite for not wanting to come here are overwhelmingly the responsibility of minorities.

Those are just facts. Apparently facts don't exist in whatever bubble world the lefty lives in.

As for why we don’t see many people immigrating here from Norway, I can’t explain it either. Why don't more of those nice white folks give up national healthcare, a guaranteed pension, sickness and survivor benefits, and free college to come here and be embarrassed on a daily basis by a vulgar talking yam? There's just no understanding some people.

Throw the minority population that the U.S. has, with the attitude that population has, in to Norway and see how long that system works.

You're entitled to your own opinion. A country's status as a 'shithole' is pretty much a textbook example of an 'opinion.' No two people have just the same definition of 'shithole' in their heads. Though in a great many cases, 'mostly black and brown people in the population' is going to figure into it I suspect....

Speaking of 'just facts' in this matter indicates you have no good idea what a fact is.

And blaming 'minorities' for social ills is just one more of the racist opinions your head is full of.
