So you don't like Germans.....we get it. What do you want everyone to do? Round them up and.....?
Yes, we should take away their sovereignty!...
We did.
It was called Occupation.
We split their country into two parts and kept them under the thumb of the Americans, Soviets, British and French, for decades, following WWII.
I know... I was there... part of the team that ended-up staring-down the Russkies for 45 years.
...But that won't happen - so we should pay close attention to the multitude of stories about the rise of Nazism and hate in Germany...
Agreed.
Then again, we should pay close attention to stories of fascism and hate-mongering, anywhere where our people and interests might be affected.
...and we need to pay close attention to anyone of German heritage in the states as they are the ones who are guilty of spreading vile hate in North America.
Uhhhhh... yeah... sure... whatever you say.
Oh, and, good luck with that.
Americans of German ancestry constitute the single largest ethnic group in the United States.

Not to mention that German-Americans built half the frigging country (
contributed extremely heavily to its formation and growth and sustenance and defense)

But you go right ahead with your fevered rant against so many millions of your fellow countrymen, and see if you get anywhere with that.
The German part of my own German-Irish ancestry came to America in two waves, with one lineage arriving in the 1680s, and the other lineage (the paternal surname branch) arriving in 1870...
The latter branch remains in fairly close touch, given that it's been 5-6 generations since we walked down the gangplank onto the pier in Baltimore harbor, and we remember which village in the Old Country that we came from...
Hell, some of us still correspond sporadically with distant cousins descended from those who chose to stay behind - way back in 1870.
Have you(r family) been here that long (1870? 1680?).
Are you still connected to your roots in that way?
Does your family have a similar loving commitment to family and heritage?
Pffffffttttt...
Now, excuse me, while I contemplate a breakfast of Eier, Wurst, Kartoffeln und geröstetem Brot - vielen danke.
