What I do know is that if we kick you (and your KLAN brethren) OUT of this country then we will be a hundred, nay a thousand times, better off as a nation.
You and your chickenshit friends can sit and hack away on computer screens all day but if you had to quantify your contribution to the people of this country, it would probably come out in the negative, with all the hatred and fear that you morons promote. When I was in college, most of the kids studying engineering were Indian, Pakistani, Chinese, Japs etc, many of them international students or with immigrant families. Same with medicine. My own family doctor is a Pakistani and I trust that man with my life. Most of our hospitals are filled with Asian, Indian doctos. How dare you say that immigrants haven't contributed to the progress of this country?
I bet all you have to your entire life is your 7000 post count on this hooker board, because it's obvious that you are too fucking stupid to do anything else. Those "rag-heads" are probably working to save the lives of millions of americans as you type away in your mom's basement shitting in a bucket and munching on doritos, you fucking dipshit.

That's because you are closing in on a thousand posts in barely half a year. You FAR outpace me, mope.
The Klan? Me? If you read any of my posts about my disdain for the Confederacy and redneck bigots in general, you would never have written that. Just ask IBHankering about our arguments on the subject.
And I never said anything bad about ALL immigrants, mope. In fact, I'm first generation American and don't need your BS condescension, you progressive twat.
What I said was that we needed to be more selective in who we admit. And I named specific countries. I didn't say "Asians" or all immigrants, asshole. Learn to read.
I have attended many engineering classes and I can see who is in the room, numbnuts. Lots of Koreans, Chinese, Indians, Japanese. To a much lesser extent, Pakistanis and Arabs.
And you seem to think that bringing lots of doctors into the US from Pakistan and elsewhere in Asia is a good thing. Why? You're doing nothing more than undercutting the wages of American doctors in order to boost the profits of healthcare companies. Is that the progressive agenda for affordable healthcare?
Back to the topic, why shouldn't we be more selective in who we admit into the country?
At one time, it made sense to flood the county with immigrants. We had a nearly empty continent to fill and allowing lots of farmers and low-skilled laborers and mechanics from Europe and China made sense because native born Americans had about the same skill levels.
Now, we have 320 million people. The country is FULL. The frontier is CLOSED. We don't need large influxes of unskilled immigrants to build the country. The country is already built.
Now, we have an educated and skilled population for the most part. The only part of the economy that doesn't do well is the unskilled, poorly educated part of the population. They need stronger unions, more job opportunities, and less competition. The best way to increase their salaries is to create a labor shortage in their part of the job market.
So, why do we keep bringing in unskilled labor from Asia, south Asian, south America, Africa, and elsewhere?
Why do we not greatly restrict immigration and only allow in small numbers of skilled immigrants to suit our narrowly tailored needs?
And also, cut WAAAAY back on the H1B visa scam that floods our markets with Asian engineers in order to undercut US engineering salaries?
None of that is xenophobia, prick. That is taking care of our citizenry.
