    I celebrate 2 February. No, not Groundhog's Day. It's the anniversary of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. What's that? The treaty that concluded the Mexican-American War and which the unconditional surrender of Mexico resulted in huge parcels of land (all or parts of present-day Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming) being ceded to the U.S. and the establishment of America's southern border. It also marks the one and only time where granting amnesty to non-Americans (in this case Mexicans living in the ceded lands) to give them citizenship was actually the correct thing to do.

    "In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American … There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag … We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language … and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
    Theodore Roosevelt 1907

      @UserUser-ke4ti Před 5 lety

      Here's the problem, while we tell them to become Americans in every way....the crooked culture we now have in America tells them not to, so, if you can ban the unamerican culture of the liberal left, we will never have the America our forefathers set up for us, remember, a house divided cannot stand, but will have an end. İn the age we are in now, the pride of being an American has no place for illegals, America is there for the taking, for those coming in according to our laws, there HEART is set on becoming an American because they see the dead end road of there country of origin, usually people who immigrate to America want to leave there country and it's vestiges of life for a more perfect way of living, sadly when they now get here they are subject to the liberal way of thinking and ask themselves....hey didn't we leave a shithole to come here only to find out it's here to? Do you see the confusion?

    • @UserUser-ke4ti
      @UserUser-ke4ti Před 5 lety

      @D do you know the word loyalty? Assimilation? Where's your heart? Those people came here and did those very things knowing full well they were destined to be AMERICAN'S AND NOTHING ELSE! PERIOD THE END! Today you have people from other countries breaking into a sovreign nation that was built by those people who became Americans in there heart's, now it's because there either fleeing justice or war, so to come here and be an American citizen is the furthest thing from there mind, they REFUSE to speak the one and only national language of ENGLISH! We're not the world's dumping ground of there cast aways, Were not a third world nation! You come here it's expected of you to be loyal to AMERICA and it's people, not to come here and still try to incorporate you home land to our American ideals, it does not work! No one is saying that vestiges of your Homeland will not remain in your heart, but your loyalty is now the U.S.! WE DONT NEED PEOPLE COMING HERE THINKING NOTHING IN THERE LIFE CAN REMAIN THE SAME! We have to many of those people now trying to change the American landscape to reflect there homelands, such as the great state of Michigan, the Muslims there are instituting the laws of there religion that our American constitution and laws cannot and will not allow, but there pig headed enough to believe they can do it anyway! You call yourself an American? You need to reevaluate your loyalties my supposed American friend, get this in your head, the left in this country has now become a party of treason, changing our beloved constitution to fit the PC narrative of a state that no longer respects the founding fathers or the blood that was spilled to secure it's freedom, and we the real Americans will not let that happen, either you are in, or your out.

It went to the school board sand eventually to the state Supreme Court! We won and the pledge was said over the intercom and a student said a prayer over the intercom right after the pledge!

    This disrespect of America Flag make a statement from the school that they can put a Mexico Flag above America Flag. Its a full disrespect of the America Flag to fly under another foreign country flag on United States soiled. No matter what cerebration they did on that day, you are on America soiled and have that right to wear America flag anytime and any place in the United States. As for the 9th Court some one better have them read the United States civilian and military codes of our American flag. Maybe court that made the rule are from Mexico?
