Our culture and the American way of life continues to degenerate?
Answer:
I agree so totally. There has to be a standard. How does that song go "you've got to stand for something, or you'll fall for anything"?? We are so busy trying to placate all groups & cultures and ideas, we are forgetting our own. And yes, people, America DOES have a culture of its own!!! Our culture is a total dedication to our American way of life, including many precious freedoms that most of the world does not have even now. We believe people are rewarded for hard work & ingenuity, and should be able to worship in freedom. There are tons of people pouring over our borders that are the very antithesis to that ideal. I'm not talking about our Mexican borders per se. Many Mexicans come here for the very reasons we founded this country and cherish the same things. BUT...we have to watch & be careful, because there are many coming over our borders that do NOT have America's best interests at heart. We can't be a refuge for the downtrodden if criminals and terrorists hold us in bondage.
It is by design that our government turns it's back to protecting us. They talk about protecting us, but it is clear that they have opened the borders.
Regarding terrorism and terrorists. Per the governments definition, the real one that is, a terrorist is anyone who threatens their power. Has nothing to do with protecting human life. It's all about protecting the machine.
Yeah, tell me about it. Things are getting so bad that before you know it you're going to have all these stupid, crazy racists and bigots blaming all their problems on minorities. And they'll try to sell everybody these moronic fantasies about evil foreigner conspiracies instead of focusing on huge problems like widespread meth use among white America. We should get some kind of screening process to weed out these KKK lovers before they band together and continue to contribute to the degeneration of America.
I HAVE A PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA
RICHARD D. LAMM
I HAVE A SECRET PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA. IF YOU BELIEVE, AS MANY DO, THAT AMERICA IS TOO SMUG, TOO WHITE BREAD, TOO SELF-SATISFIED, TOO RICH, LETS DESTROY AMERICA. IT IS NOT THAT HARD TO DO. HISTORY SHOWS THAT NATIONS ARE MORE FRAGILE THAN THEIR CITIZENS THINK. NO NATION IN HISTORY HAS SURVIVED THE RAVAGES OF TIME. ARNOLD TOYNBEE OBSERVED THAT ALL GREAT CIVILIZATIONS RISE AND THEY ALL FALL, AND THAT "AN AUTOPSY OF HISTORY WOULD SHOW THAT ALL GREAT NATIONS COMMIT SUICIDE." HERE IS MY PLAN:
I. WE MUST FIRST MAKE AMERICA A BILINGUAL-BICULTURAL COUNTRY. HISTORY SHOWS, IN MY OPINION, THAT NO NATION CAN SURVIVE THE TENSION, CONFLICT, AND ANTAGONISM OF TWO COMPETING LANGUAGES AND CULTURES. IT IS A BLESSING FOR AN INDIVIDUAL TO BE BILINGUAL; IT IS A CURSE FOR A SOCIETY TO BE BILINGUAL. ONE SCHOLAR, SEYMOUR MARTIN LIPSET, PUT IT THIS WAY:
THE HISTORIES OF BILINGUAL AND BICULTURAL SOCIETIES THAT DO NOT ASSIMILATE ARE HISTORIES OF TURMOIL, TENSION, AND TRAGEDY. CANADA, BELGIUM, MALAYSIA, LEBANON-ALL FACE CRISES OF NATIONAL EXISTENCE IN WHICH MINORITIES PRESS FOR AUTONOMY, IF NOT INDEPENDENCE. PAKISTAN AND CYPRUS HAVE DIVIDED. NIGERIA SUPPRESSED AN ETHNIC REBELLION. FRANCE FACES DIFFICULTIES WITH ITS BASQUES, BRETONS, AND CORSICANS.
II. I WOULD THEN INVENT "MULTICULTURALISM" AND ENCOURAGE IMMIGRANTS TO MAINTAIN THEIR OWN CULTURE. I WOULD MAKE IT AN ARTICLE OF BELIEF THAT ALL CULTURES ARE EQUAL: THAT THERE ARE NO CULTURAL DIFFERENCES THAT ARE IMPORTANT. I WOULD DECLARE IT AN ARTICLE OF FAITH THAT THE BLACK AND HISPANIC DROPOUT RATE IS ONLY DUE TO PREJUDICE AND DISCRIMINATION BY THE MAJORITY. EVERY OTHER EXPLANATION IS OUT-OF-BOUNDS.
III. WE CAN MAKE THE UNITED STATES A "HISPANIC QUEBEC" WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT. THE KEY IS TO CELEBRATE DIVERSITY RATHER THAN UNITY. AS BENJAMIN SCHWARZ SAID IN THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY RECENTLY:
...THE APPARENT SUCCESS OF OUR OWN MULTIETHNIC AND MULTICULTURAL EXPERIMENT MIGHT HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED NOT BY TOLERANCE BUT BY HEGEMONY. WITHOUT THE DOMINANCE THAT ONCE DICTATED ETHNOCENTRICALLY, AND WHAT IT MEANT TO BE AN AMERICAN, WE ARE LEFT WITH ONLY TOLERANCE AND PLURALISM TO HOLD US TOGETHER.
I WOULD ENCOURAGE ALL IMMIGRANTS TO KEEP THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE. I WOULD REPLACE THE MELTING POT METAPHOR WITH A SALAD BOWL METAPHOR. IT IS IMPORTANT TO INSURE THAT WE HAVE VARIOUS CULTURAL SUB-GROUPS LIVING IN AMERICA REINFORCING THEIR DIFFERENCES RATHER THAN AMERICANS, EMPHASIZING THEIR SIMILARITIES.
IV. HAVING DONE ALL THIS, I WOULD MAKE OUR FASTEST GROWING DEMOGRAPHIC GROUP THE LEAST EDUCATED - I WOULD ADD A SECOND UNDERCLASS, UNASSIMILATED, UNDEREDUCATED, AND ANTAGONISTIC TO OUR POPULATION. I WOULD HAVE THIS SECOND UNDERCLASS HAVE A 50% DROP OUT RATE FROM SCHOOL.
V. I WOULD THEN GET THE BIG FOUNDATIONS AND BIG BUSINESS TO GIVE THESE EFFORTS LOTS OF MONEY. I WOULD INVEST IN ETHNIC IDENTITY, AND I WOULD ESTABLISH THE CULT OF VICTIMOLOGY. I WOULD GET ALL MINORITIES TO THINK THEIR LACK OF SUCCESS WAS ALL THE FAULT OF THE MAJORITY - I WOULD START A GRIEVANCE INDUSTRY BLAMING ALL MINORITY FAILURE ON THE MAJORITY POPULATION.
VI. I WOULD ESTABLISH DUAL CITIZENSHIP AND PROMOTE DIVIDED LOYALTIES. I WOULD "CELEBRATE DIVERSITY." "DIVERSITY" IS A WONDERFULLY SEDUCTIVE WORD. IT STRESSES DIFFERENCES RATHER THAN COMMONALITIES. DIVERSE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE ARE MOSTLY ENGAGED IN HATING EACH OTHER-THAT IS, WHEN THEY ARE NOT KILLING EACH OTHER. A DIVERSE," PEACEFUL, OR STABLE SOCIETY IS AGAINST MOST HISTORICAL PRECEDENT. PEOPLE UNDERVALUE THE UNITY IT TAKES TO KEEP A NATION TOGETHER, AND WE CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS MYOPIA. LOOK AT THE ANCIENT GREEKS. DORF'S WORLD HISTORY TELLS US:
THE GREEKS BELIEVED THAT THEY BELONGED TO THE SAME RACE; THEY POSSESSED A COMMON LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE; AND THEY WORSHIPED THE SAME GODS. ALL GREECE TOOK PART IN THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN HONOR OF ZEUS AND ALL GREEKS VENERATED THE SHRINE OF APOLLO AT DELPHI. A COMMON ENEMY PERSIA THREATENED THEIR LIBERTY. YET, ALL OF THESE BONDS TOGETHER WERE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO OVERCOME TWO FACTORS . . . (LOCAL PATRIOTISM AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS THAT NURTURED POLITICAL DIVISIONS . . .)
IF WE CAN PUT THE EMPHASIS ON THE "PLURIBUS," INSTEAD OF THE "UNUM," WE CAN BALKANIZE AMERICA AS SURELY AS KOSOVO.
VII. THEN I WOULD PLACE ALL THESE SUBJECTS OFF LIMITS - MAKE IT TABOO TO TALK ABOUT. I WOULD FIND A WORD SIMILAR TO "HERETIC" IN THE 16TH CENTURY - THAT STOPPED DISCUSSION AND PARALYZED THINKING. WORDS LIKE "RACIST", "XENOPHOBE" THAT HALTS ARGUMENT AND CONVERSATION.
HAVING MADE AMERICA A BILINGUAL-BICULTURAL COUNTRY, HAVING ESTABLISHED MULTICULTURALISM, HAVING THE LARGE FOUNDATIONS FUND THE DOCTRINE OF "VICTIMOLOGY", I WOULD NEXT MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO ENFORCE OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS. I WOULD DEVELOP A MANTRA - "THAT BECAUSE IMMIGRATION HAS BEEN GOOD FOR AMERICA, IT MUST ALWAYS BE GOOD." I WOULD MAKE EVERY INDIVIDUAL IMMIGRANT SYMPATRIC AND IGNORE THE CUMULATIVE IMPACT.
VIII. LASTLY, I WOULD CENSOR VICTOR HANSON DAVIS'S BOOK MEXIFORNIA — THIS BOOK IS DANGEROUS — IT EXPOSES MY PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA. SO PLEASE, PLEASE — IF YOU FEEL THAT AMERICA DESERVES TO BE DESTROYED — PLEASE, PLEASE — DON'T BUY THIS BOOK! THIS GUY IS ON TO MY PLAN.
"THE SMART WAY TO KEEP PEOPLE PASSIVE AND OBEDIENT IS TO STRICTLY LIMIT THE SPECTRUM OF ACCEPTABLE OPINION, BUT ALLOW VERY LIVELY DEBATE WITHIN THAT SPECTRUM." — NOAM CHOMSKY, AMERICAN LINGUIST AND US MEDIA AND FOREIGN POLICY CRITIC.
Evidence would seem to suggest that conservative Christians are the real problem. Plus, they openly attack the US Constitution and want to overthrow America’s secular democratic republic and replace it with a Christian-based fascist government. They are the real traitors and terrorists bent on America’s destruction. Until we rid the nation of them, we will never be safe or free.
A recent study in the ‘Journal of Religion & Society’ (Cross-National Correlations of Quantifiable Societal Health with Popular Religiosity and Secularism in the Prosperous Democracies by Gregory S. Paul, Volume 7 (2005) http://moses.creighton.edu/jrs/2005/2005... ) found that:
The United States is the most religious country among all developed nations. In fact, in terms of religiosity, the US is more similar to 2nd- and 3rd –world nations (like those that produce Islamic terrorists) than it is to any of the developed nations.
An examination of the world’s developed nations revealed that:
-- The LEAST RELIGIOUS and MOST PRO-EVOLUTION countries have FEWER and LOWER RATES OF ABORTION than the United States.
-- The LEAST RELIGIOUS and MOST PRO-EVOLUTION countries have FEWER and LOWER RATES OF HOMOCIDE than the United States.
-- The LEAST RELIGIOUS and MOST PRO-EVOLUTION countries have FEWER and LOWER RATES OF adolescent and adult SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES than the United States.
-- The LEAST RELIGIOUS and MOST PRO-EVOLUTION countries have FEWER and LOWER RATES of EARLY ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY AND BIRTH than the United States.
In summary, that study states:
-- “In general, higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator correlate with higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early adult mortality, STD infection rates, teen pregnancy, and abortion.”
Looking only within the United States, the same pattern emerges:
In a comparison of the more secular New England region against the most pro-religion and anti-evolution regions in America (the South and the Midwest), the study found that:
-- the MOST RELIGIOUS states in America have MORE HOMICIDES than the most secular pro-evolution states,
-- the MOST RELIGIOUS states in America have HIGHER MORTALITY RATES than the most secular pro-evolution states,
-- the MOST RELIGIOUS states in America have MORE SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASESS than the most secular pro-evolution states,
-- the MOST RELIGIOUS states in America have MORE YOUTH PREGNANCIES than the most secular pro-evolution states,
-- the MOST RELIGIOUS states in America have MORE MARITAL, AND RELATED PERSONAL AND SOCIAL PROBLEMS than the most secular pro-evolution states.
According to the National School Safety Center (NSSC), over the last 20 years there have been more mass student murders in the religious us than in all of the secular developed nations of the world – COMBINED.
The study concludes with a severe negative judgment of THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF RELIGIOSITY ON AMERICAN LIFE AND SOCIETY:
-- “The United States is almost always the most dysfunctional of the developed democracies, sometimes spectacularly so”.
The problem is politics. Period`. the reason the middle east doesn't in politics is because they are old testament.they cant except the fact Jesus was here. their world has never heard of Jesus. Hence you might want to be a muslim, or have "your own free will."
Definitely !!!
We live on borrow money from chinese.
U.S government is completely control by jews how ...
We borrow money from chinese on right hand
and give out on left hand like 4 billions a yrs. to state
of israel to keep 'em jews alive and happy.
We have more people want to come here to work and send
money back to their countries spent none here in local economy.
U.S media and hollywood run and operate by mostly who else
Jews .....
Latino people mexican and south america are floods to u.s cities every where and they're lack of education and intelligent.
Soon, we have to learn spanish or chinese pick one
I encourage everyone must own gun and more of it ....the day will come when you have to shoot your way out of a trap to regain freedom back.
I think you should elaborate. Witch culture you are talking about is it the European Culture, because if you are talking about them, I mean it's been only a little over 200 years since they did exactly the same things you are referring to in you question, when they destroy the life's and liberty's of all native Americans. As for your statement that some how immigrants are going to be the cause for the fall of America it's a catch 22 statement this country is made up of nothing but immigrants so the success of this country falls in every responsible citizen. My opinion is, this country, the United States Of America will last longer then the Roman Empire. Amen
We defiantly have some serious social, economic and cultural issues to contend with. Not sure what the answers might be but recognizing the problem is the first step to fixing it.
Yeah, yada yada. Tell it to the Feds. They'll blow you off just like most of the pro and illegals will do.
I do agree with you howeve.r
Southern California was beautiful during the 80's. Pure american life style. I loved it. I remember living in Hacienda Heights. Nice safe beautiful neighborhoods everywhere you went. I think it was the golden age of Southern California.
Souther California sucks now...unless you live in very rich areas like Laguna Beach or Laguna Niguel or south Orange Country. And still not the same.
That is why I left California and went back to Spain. Living wise California was better than Spain like 25+ years ago, but today... I Like living in Spain much better than the California of today.
But I miss those Golden years.
The problem is that many people have become "religious", instead of having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
The country was founded on Christian bases, and the fact that people has gone away from that is that is causing problems.
My opinion.
