Why Don’t They Just Stay Home?

Did you ever notice how many people come to the United States from other countries and then set about trying to change our way of life? How many Muslims come here for a better life and then try to impose Sharia Law? If you want Sharia then go back where you came from, they already have it there.

What about Canadians who come here for a better life? They come here because they can make better money and have better opportunities but then set about trying to change things to be more like their home country. They want universal health care so that those who pay taxes can foot the bill for those who do not. They bring a smug attitude about how superior they are and how much they know and think that their job is to better educate the dumb Americans.

Why don’t they just stay in Canada? Perhaps they did not like waiting eight months for a colonoscopy, or a year for an MRI. Perhaps the government taxed their goat farms and they could not write off their goats as prom dates. Perhaps they did not like the wages they earned and the high taxes they paid. Who knows?

But why do they come here and try to change things to what they left when they could just stay there and leave us alone?

Not all people who come here are this way and many assimilate and make great contributions. Unfortunately, a few bad apples arrive and give everyone a bad name.

Time was immigrants arrived here, learned the language and assimilated. Now they arrive and think they own the place.

I guess they are jealous that they were not chosen by God to be born in the greatest country in the world.

At least most of them are not sneaking across the border like people from a certain country to our south. Those folks think they own the place so much so that they don’t even bother to get permission before entering.

Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

    Many people cling to cultural mores in a foreign land- culinary traditions are good, but trying to change the law of your adopted land for something as twisted and warped as sharia law is just sick.
    As BD says, if you do not like it here, go home- you are not forced to stay- but IF YOU DO CHOOSE TO STAY, you WILL abide by our laws and noone else’s.

    Speaking of socialized health care any of you guys seen this:
    “Congress Passes Socialized Medicine and Mandates Health Insurance -In 1798”

    Is this just more leftie bunk or what? Its from Forbes and they usually good Christains.

    Pretty funny fellas, considering that I am probably right in guessing that none of you are native American Indians or direct descendants. I’m sure those natives thought to themselves,
    “why do they come here and try to change things to what they left when they could just stay there and leave us alone?” but here you all are with your traditions in place that have nothing to do with the land that your predecessors came to. Hypocrites!

    “Your car is Japanese. Your Vodka is Russian. Your pizza is Italian. Your kebab is Turkish. Your democracy is Greek. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your movies are American. Your tea is Tamil. Your shirt is Indian. Your oil is Saudi Arabian. Your electronics are Chinese. Your numbers – Arabic, your letters – Latin. And you complain that your neighbor is an immigrant? Pull yourself together!” –anon

      Look, ma, a straw man! Can we knock it down, please, can we?

      And since I am 6th generation Texan, and one eighth Mexican, or as we say here, Tejano, since we “assimilated”, I can pretty much get a pass on what you are saying. Can you say that, Tamara? Or are you white bread Brit Canuck?

    Oh, and FYI Canada has higher minimum wages and about the same median household income as here in the US AND similar tax rates (but with more benefits) so people do NOT come here for the moolah, mostly the weather.

  6. Big Dog says:

    Well Tamara, some of my ancestors were American Indians. I know they wish they had better border control back then.

    Are you saying that since Europeans came here and conquered this land we should now allow others to do it?

    Yes, those tax rates in Canada and the wait times for all the social services. We are the greatest nation on Earth because we were founded on freedom and minimal government. If other nations want to do it differently that is their business.

    However, as the post states, if it is so wonderful there, why not stay?

    If you come here for the weather (or any other reason) then learn to assimilate and quit trying to change things to be more like where you came from.

    And my car is from many parts of the world.

      How exquisitely true, BD- but the Canadian parts of your car are the ones that wear out quicker than others-(shoddy craftsmanship, I guess, or too many LaBatt’s)- don’t buy a car with Canadian parts made on a Monday-
