If we let too many immigrants in, before you know it we’ll be eating pizza, spaghetti, pad thai or General Tso’s Chicken!
And just who is General Tso anyway? Probably a general in the Chinese Army.

i ran to check, nope, he is not my parent.

The nonsense that authority should never be challenged is apparently lost on him entirely.

its a real pity that someone is that insecure in who they ‘are’ that they feel threatened by someone different new

Uh, who is this “we” you’re referring to? There are many parts of this country where you, as a Black man, wouldn’t be considered to the level of an animal.

“If a police officer stops you,” Carson said, “don’t give him a bunch of lip.”

You know what, Uncle Ben? Whether you give them lip or not, Black people will still be human targets. It has been proven that whether you are or are not running, hands up or down, in or out of a car, face front to the police or back turned, you will still be killed or seriously injured. OF COURSE, in your mind, that would never happen to you or your kin:

'Cause you’re one of the good ones, see

“They don’t get to change who we are” WTF? That is precisely what they “get” to do and have always done. Dr. Ben, Africans were involuntary immigrants but they’ve changed America too, adding to our culture, our attitudes, our way of life. All immigrants “get” to do that whether those that came before and did the same want it to happen or not. Pretending you can stop immigrants from changing us is live trying to stop the tides.

I’m not to big on Nazi references but in this case a prudent one can be made:

“”“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger.”"""
Herman Göring at the Nuremberg trials

Similar isn’t it? Immigrants don’t want to attack your culture. But if you tell folks they do you can move them to your cause. Its usually done like that. The Unions were ripping you off
making cars cost much much more. The unions were attacking you. The poor are taking your money and spending it on drugs. The poor are attacking you. The part that Göring left out is you only need the method if you’re full of shit.

I think the people who should determine whether or not there’s a war on women should be those who feel warred against – namely, women. Not the people who are waging the war and are too clueless to realize it.

Yeah, what “targeted” violence against police. BLM?? Just say it, screwball, say it out. Let us know the full extent of your lying pandering.

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said Wednesday he welcomes immigrants to America, but they cannot alter "who we are."
The retired neurosurgeon, speaking at a Christian college in his native Michigan, said he wants to preserve the U.S. as "Judeo-Christian."

So, if an atheist publishes a book extolling the virtues of leading a life sans belief in God, does that constitute an attempt to "alter who we are"? And if so does Carson's promise to "preserve the U.S. as Judeo-Christian" mean as President he'd have to advocate against atheists proselytizing otherwise?.
