Immigration: A different view

"All these immigration bills are essentially the same,” the wise man told me. “None are intended to stop illegal immigration. Our restrictions are designed merely to be filters to weed out the weak, lazy and stupid from getting into the U.S. Those who get through will be the fittest, and they will bring America the best genetic stock as new citizens.” This columnist was first to identify the paradox that today’s liberals demand that Darwinian evolution be taught in our public school classrooms but insist that real Darwinian competition – dodge ball, score keeping, the very idea of winners and losers – be banished from the playgrounds of those same schools. Do they believe that Charles Darwin, the founder of evolutionary theory, was right or not? I occasionally interview a deep but cynical thinker. Because he prefers to remain anonymous, I call him “The Darwinian.” Quoted above and hereafter, this is his take on current events....A Darwining View of Immigration, Lowell Ponte, FrontPageMag.Com, 4/12/2006

This article comes close to suggesting that a tired, unmotivated, irreligious, "competition-free" American population is an easy target to be supplanted by aggressive, ambitious, family-oriented, and religious Mexicans. Hey, if you're bored, don't give a damn, believe in nothing, and think fighting for something is passe, don't be surprised if someone shows up next door with an attitude that suggests you could be replaced.

Of course, what's worth noting is that the majority of Americans, i.e., those in the "Red" states, more often than not are not bored, do care, believe in something, and are ready to fight to defend their country, their families, and their beliefs. Maybe, just maybe, they have friends coming across the border. That would sure shock the stuffing out of Democrats.
