And the thing is I get a sort of hateful/resentful vibe from it too... and I don't even know him. I have never so much as spoken a word to him, and have never done anything to him (that I know of) besides existing. One time last semester I was on my way to a class and he was coming out of one of the rooms as I was passing by, and the instant he saw me he looked like a deer in headlights and went right back into the room. The only thing I can figure is that he's mistaking me for (or I look like/ remind him of) somebody from his past that screwed him over or really pissed him off or something.... less

Laws have changed through the years of course. We didn't limit wannabe citizens to "free white of good character". But it seems that for the White Nationalists, ALT-RIGHT whites and all the other groups beginning with WHITE that is the preferred template. Will they ever get their wish? An ALL-WHITE America? How many generations will it take to rout out every skin color but bright white? Anyone know? less

At the time America's borders were open. Visas, passports, background checks were unknown. The Know Nothing Party's hatred of immigrants and Catholics was based on their fear that the immigrants would influence the country's economic and political structure adversely. Sound familiar Stevie baby? Seems Steve Bannon is a KNOW NOTHING. He knows nothing about his great great grandfather Lawrence. Bannon says America was built by CITIZENS not immigrants. What does that make Great great grandpa Lawrence? Chopped liver? Exactly when did the Irish Catholic immigrant Lawrence Bannon become an American citizen? Does Bannon know that or is he an excellent poster boy for the present-day KNOW NOTHINGS? Atta way Stevie baby. Atta way! :(. He calls them ALT-RIGHT. Same thing. KNOW NOTHING. The more things change the more they stay the same. Does Bannon have a copy of his ... less

Do US college kids still go to Mexico to enjoy the cheap booze and maybe some cheap sex ?It used to be a quite common thing, but they might not be quite so welcome there today.

Is there any kind of down side to it? Does any country actually care about them, or have they mostly just sat up there and thrown tantrums that have irritated the whole world?
