Rest easy warriors…

Freedom is not free! Please spend a few moments in silence reading the names, and thanking our Lord for these warriors who gave all for our freedom.

In the name of God and by ALL that He touches, I will NOT tolerate, allow or condone someone to question my heritage or ethnicity because of my love for the United States of America!!!

Because I stand up and say PROUDLY and LOUDLY that all people seeking refuge, prosperity and freedom in the United States of America should make every personal effort, despite pains, struggles or tears to learn English does not erase my identity.

I will always defend this country for she gave my parents and I new hope.

ProEnglishUSA approves this post.

There is so much to say about this.

On the one hand, immigrants who risk their lives and go to extremes to come to a country where freedom is guaranteed.

However, as an immigrant myself, whose parents arrived, by legal means, to the USA, it is absurd to accept illegal immigrants who take illegal routes, illegal means and illegal and immoral methods to penetrate our country.

Sneaking into the USA in the back of a boxed van, through a narrow underground tunnel, in a container on the back of a truck or on a ship is illegal and yet sad.

My parents left their country of birth and sought refuge in the USA with a three year old. I am not perfect and I am not saying that we deserved to be accepted by the American people or the USA. However, what I DO SAY and SAY PROUDLY is that we knew (1) work was a necessity and requirement, (2) learning English as soon as possible regardless of the pains, the struggles, and the tears, it was absolutely something that had to happen, (3) we needed to be humble and be ready and willing to give back for the generosity received.

Brent Batten was absolutely correct in his column of March 25 when he stated there is no right to “the fruits of another group’s labor.”

The Declaration of Independence holds that rights are “self-evident.” However, it is the failure to grasp the true nature of rights which has brought this country to its current condition. It remained for the 20th-century philosopher Ayn Rand to explicitly identify rights as “moral principle(s) defining and sanctioning a man’s freedom of action in a social context.” Rights pertain only to “freedom from physical compulsion, coercion or interference by other men. … Rights impose no obligations on (others) except of a negative kind: to abstain from violating (your) rights.”
