Conservatives: should we remove the Statue of Liberty poem?

[coyote505]

[Please post any study showing that, in “reality,” “ the most support given to Trump's immigrant policies is from the Hispanic community.”

If this were only about legal/illegal immigration, you would be proposing legislation that makes it easier for the immigrants our businesses and communities need to come here. Or pathways to citizenship for people who have been here and formed families and lived according to our laws for many years—something that in *actual* reality most Hispanics and Latinos support. Nothing like that has been proposed. Your distinction is a thin cover for rank bigotry, and you know it.

Our immigration laws are the result of an unholy alliance of Peckerwoods and union bosses. Without these two groups we would reinstate the Bracero program, where Mexicans came to the US for seasonal employment, left their families home, and rejoined them at the end of the employment, bringing home much needed extra income. This worked out to the benefit of everyone but the UFW.

Donald is not interested in your little opinions on legal immigration. If he wants it ended, then that is his decision to make, and you are expected to stay in your lane and blindly support him. Your anti-MAGA "immigration is fine!" claims are going to put you on a fast track to RINO land if you're not careful, so please reconsider any further attempts to cross Donald. He does not tolerate disloyalty from his foot soldiers.

Trump IS Following US Constitutional Immigration Laws !
Americans want Trump to protect America as he is . So I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Conservatives: should we remove the Statue of Liberty poem?​

As a modern Fiscal Conservative but Social Democrat I say NO!

Because MAGATS et al will not always be trying to ruin everything America once stood for as that "shining city on a hill".

A Salvadoran national deported under President Trump is now on his way back to the United States as an accused criminal, according to court documents obtained by Fox News.

Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, 29, is charged in a sealed federal indictment out of Tennessee with conspiracy to unlawfully transport illegal aliens for financial gain and unlawful transportation of illegal aliens.

Abrego Garcia allegedly moved illegal immigrants from Texas to interior states, in what courts say was an organized operation stretching back years.

We can keep the statue as is, as a historical reminder of the time when we welcomed immigrants during America's still-formative years and needed people to help build our infastructure. Times have changed. We do not need nearly as many, and especially not the "wretched refuse".

Good post!!!!!

A sizable portion of this country believe we are headed for a wonderful new age but
the majority understands that this country has
gone down a dangerous path for almost 60 years & in the process lost it's collective minds.

Those who believed we were headed for a wonderful new age until Trump came along
are foaming at the mouth haters. Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Jay & the crew
that helped form this country thought this countries sameness made it possible to
endure & succeed, not diversity.

Humans are highly ethnocentric with a bias towards familiarity. That is why you have borders
to keeps un-familiar people out -and protect & insure a workiable society.
Isn't this what the left is all about. the upheaval of a harmonious society that's been gaining traction fortoomany decades.

Seems pretty incompatible with your views on immigration and American greatness. Would you support removing the poem?

“Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

The Statue of Liberty is at a place where people come here legally.

KING MAGAT aka President Donald Trump is deporting people who came here legally, and NOW he wants to deport people who were born here legally and are United States Citizens none the less.

If you came here illegally then became DACA then you are still an illegal. Any so called citizens being deported are by choice or family choice. They don't have to go but their illegal relatives do. If they all want to stay together then fine, they can all leave together.

That is not what I was talking about.

Under the heavy DURESS and misdirection of the Trump Administration's ICE.

Sure, those little LEGAL UNITED STATES CITIZENS should just opt to remain behind, pull up their boot straps and get on with their lives.

If they all want to stay together then fine, they can all leave together.

Deportation of LEGAL UNITED STATES CITIZENS via OVERSHADOWING GOVERNMENT DURESS, true, is not a ""technical"" legal deportation but it is by all means and ways in practical reality a deportation of LEGAL UNITED STATES CITIZENS.
