I'm real curteous until someone sets foot on my property, breaks my 
laws, treats my country like shit, and raises the white hair on my red 
neck.

I've been on all sides of the equation. Most countries are extremely 
rednecked. Most countries are extremely nationalistic, with very strong 
ties to a dominant culture, often very religious.

The US is singled out as an example of red-necked, theologic 
nationalism, when in fact, it is the least so. We are the friendliet 
people around, even in NYC.

That is because we are not so much a nation of one thing, we are a 
nation of all the good things and good people from everywhere. the US is 
a geographic center for "utopia" because of genius ideology that thrives 
on immigration and assimilation into an common ideal - and that ideal is 
the profound respect for human dignity, individuality, and the value of 
independent thought as elements of the greater good.

Unfortunately, this respect for human dignity is often misdirected, at 
the cost of the greater good. The rush to grant amnesty and ignore the 
illegalies is a very real threat to the fabric of this country. We 
thrive on immigration, but we are above all a nation of laws.

Turning a blind eye to the inherent destructiveness of illegal 
immigration with arguments that rely on the value of exploitation of 
those masses is basically corrupt. It is a recipe for disaster.

That is the precise reason that all the laws exist, yet tbis is a law 
that we actually encourage people to break. And you can be damn sure 
that when they die trying to do just that - some will want to give them 
further incentive to do so.

I guarantee you - the immigration issue is as important as the Islamist 
threat. You just don't realize it yet - you may still confuse it with 
racism, nationalism, whateverism, but it is simply an issue of enforcing 
laws and standards that exist for a reason.

We rednecks figgered it out a loooong time ago.
