DHS Quits Granting Green Cards–Almost

I'm a white American, but my lineage, like yours, is one of immigrants. I did not come here on the mayflower, and neither did you.

You do not love America. You love what you wish America would be. But what America is, is a country composed of immigrants; a melting pot. It's been that way since our very conception and continued into the 20th century.

And, given you do not love what America is, perhaps you do not belong here, and that's fine. As I've stated, there's plenty of white hegemony countries available.

I mean, frankly, I don't know how you could possibly think that's ever been America. Because where I grew up, it was always colorful, from my earliest memories.

And, to be clear, this is a second person you. This applies to everyone who holds these deplorable anti-American beliefs.

You must truly live in that nice colorful bubble you mentioned. I bet CNN/MSNBC is running 24/7 in the background within it.

Yes, I must listen to CNN because I stand with the principles that formed this country and that provided us our prosperity. Please, get lost.

Please don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes things worse.

Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."

Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity.

Please, please don't do this. Don't fall into this horrific hatefulness on HN - telling people they don't love their country, that they don't belong in it. Experiment with it elsewhere, and return when you have reflected on what it does to you.

You crossed into personal attack here, as well as repeatedly perpetuating the flamewar in this thread. Both of those things are against the site guidelines, regardless of how badly other commenters may be behaving. Please don't.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.
