And this was 150 years before we became a welfare state!

 


 

 

The safety of the republic depends essentially on the energy of a common National sentiment; on a uniformity of principles and habits; on the exemption of the citizens from foreign bias, and prejudice; and on that love of country which will almost invariably be found to be closely connected with birth, education and family.

 

The mass influx of foreigners must, therefore, tend to produce a heterogeneous compound; to change and corrupt the national spirit; to complicate and confound public opinion; to introduce foreign propensities. In the composition of society, the harmony of the ingredients is all important, and whatever tends to a discordant intermixture must have an injurious tendency.

 

The United States have already felt the evils of incorporating a large number of foreigners into their national mass; it has served very much to divide the community and to distract our councils, by promoting in different classes different predilections in favor of particular foreign nations, and antipathies against others. It has been often likely to compromit the interests of our own country in favor of another.

 

To admit mass foreigners indiscriminately to the rights of citizens, the moment they put foot in our country, would be nothing less, than to admit the Trojan Horse into the Citadel of our Liberty and Sovereignty.”


 

I didn’t “like” the post.  All the tweets posted here if liked once will post as such.  
 

But, I agreed with the actions taken.  

the rest of the story...

https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Hamilton/01-25-02-0282

"In the infancy of the country, with a boundless waste to people, it was politic to give a facility to naturalization;3 but our situation is now changed. It appears from the last census, that we have increased about one third in ten years;4 after allowing for what we have gained from abroad, it will be quite apparent that the natural progress of our own population is sufficiently rapid for strength, security and settlement. By what has been said, it is not meant to contend for a total prohibition of the right of citizenship to strangers, nor even for the very long residence which is now a prerequisite to naturalization, and which of itself, goes far towards a denial of that privilege. The present law was merely a temporary measure adopted under peculiar circumstances and perhaps demands revision.5 But there is a wide difference between closing the door altogether and throwing it entirely open; between a postponement of fourteen years and an immediate admission to all the rights of citizenship. Some reasonable term ought to be allowed to enable aliens to get rid of foreign and acquire American attachments; to learn the principles and imbibe the spirit of our government; and to admit of at least a probability of their feeling a real interest in our affairs. A residence of at least five years ought to be required."

Why aren't you following up on you Hamilton citation?  Seems pretty clear what he meant and it wasn't what your post concluded.


 

It’s extraordinarily simple.  
 

Hamilton:

 

”You don’t just allow anyone and everyone in.  Especially if they have zero intent on assimilating.” 
 

 

They don’t.  
 

The Public schools we provide for free no longer focus on assimilating as they did pre Obama.  
 

Now, taught only “America bad.”  
 

Exactly what Hamilton was warning against.  
 


 

Not ONE person here is against immigration.  It is absolutely ridiculous.  
 

Turn off the magnets.  Stop allowing them to vote - they are.  And stop using the public schools to incite hatred against the country.

Not what he said.  Use his words as I did and stop paraphrasing to support your argument.

 

"it is not meant to contend for a total prohibition of the right of citizenship to strangers, nor even for the very long residence which is now a prerequisite to naturalization, and which of itself, goes far towards a denial of that privilege. "

You sure you want to keep going with the guy that supported the Alien Act?  
 

Would you like more?

When you arrest people who have “done it the right way”, expect resistance.

 

What about people who “don’t do it the right way”?

Not sure this is the type of endorsement he’s looking for…
