        Shame on all of those who call themselves patriots and can’t acept this country is being built by immigrants. We are all decendents of immigrants willing to work together, to build this nation and the dream it represent. For us and our children. As a veteran I understand his pain

        Don't you know the white folk that came here were #COLONISTS? That's what they claim. Not immigrants, because they built colonies, even if it meant stealing the land, murdering indigenous. #ConqueringColonists
