We hear some people say that America's founders wanted our country to be a racial "melting pot" full of Blacks, Browns and Asians. [By the way, a Jewish writer/playwright named Israel Zangwill (1864-1926) invented the term "melting pot" for his description of America, which shouldn't really surprise anyone, since Jews have worked very hard to create a multicultural image of America; in fact, another Jew, Emma Lazarus, wrote the famous poem found on the Statue of Liberty in New York which suggests that America should absorb the world's "huddled masses" of immigrants].
If America is supposed to be a racial "melting pot," then perhaps someone can explain why, in the era of our founders, this law was created:
Act of March 26, 1790 (1 Stat 103-104): "That any alien, being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof..."
That doesn't sound like our founders wanted America to be a racial "melting pot." In fact, it sounds like just the opposite.

DALLAS [B]Man Arrested For Sprinkling Fecal Matter On Pastries[/B] [COLOR=#000000]Oct 26, 2005, 05:40 AM[/COLOR] A Dallas cab driver is in big trouble for getting caught on tape sprinkling dried feces on pastries. 49-year-old Behrouz Nahidmobarekeh is on trial for allegedly throwing fecal matter on pastries at a Fiesta grocery store. Police said they found a pile of human feces by his bed. He would dry it, either by microwave or just letting it sit out and grate it up with a cheese grater and then sprinkle it at the store, officials said.
Neither attorneys in the case is clear about a motive or why the defendant would resort to something so repulsive.
Prosecutors will show a surveillance videotape of the defendant, which shows him sprinkling a substance on the food.
The FBI arrested Nahidmobarekeh but turned the case over to local prosecutors after they determined it was not a national security issue.

I drove a taxi many years ago. It used to be a career, one in which you could make $35,000 a year, be your own boss, and make your own hours. These days, it has been taken over by immigrants, of which there are so many they can't make a decent living so they end up living four to a room. The hours are now 12 hours a day, six days a week. Lately I've been seeing taxis parked in front of welfare housing. Ethiopians, of course.
