Re: Breaking Report: P.O. Darren Wilson Suffered Orbital Blowout Fracture of eye sock
I understand ... but I do believe there is something to be said about the responsibility of the immigrant/citizen to assimilate into the American society, rather than insisting that the American society change. Through assimilation, we have been able to take the best of all societies and incorporate into a mosaic (there ain't nuttin' better than lumpia or salsa music or corned beef and cabbage!!!). Insistence on diversity, or separation, undermines that effort.
Tell that to all the Italian Americans, or Irish Americans, etc.
You are whining over semantics.
