I'm the great granddaughter of Hungarian immigrants, Scottish immigrants, and Irish immigrants on one side...,
All those groups faced harsh discrimination coming to America. Especially Hungarians and Irish.
Claiming that America has a long history of loving legal immigrants is historically ignorant.
Bullshit. My great grandparents and their parents and my parents all fought and bled for this country because it was INFINITELY better than from whence they came.
My pregnant great grandmother came on FOOT from Hungary to depart from Austria, the last of our family to leave that region. She joined her husband and brothers and older children in the US where they set up a lucrative harness shop on the East Coast.
From there, my grandfather traveled by rail to Oregon, where he met my grandmother, whose mother's father came from Ireland and whose great uncle was Union General, Ben Hur author and the governor of New Mexico, Lew Wallace, and whose grandfather was a Union Captain in his own right.
The US treated my family just fine, thank you. You're full of shit, pushing a false narrative meant to foment hatred and suspicion, and encourage illegals to despise and attack us.
