Assimilation is ineveitable for 2nd generation americans. Definately 3rd generation. You cant speed up these processes without hurting the dough.
i have no idea what that means

A basic understanding of what constitutes a nation does not fly here, friend.
The grandchildren of immigrants are completely assimilated.i have no idea what that means
its unfortunate to have to agree with a white supremacist, but you are correct
The grandchildren of immigrants are completely assimilated.
Your point is is that multiculturalism is a danger and i dont think it is because all first generation immigrants hold onto and express their culture which could give the illusion of danger, but by the 3rd generation (grandchildren) they are assimilated, so your talk of danger is a bit sensationalist, friend.what's your point? im saying the assimilation process is good, its the proper policy as opposed to protecting cultures and languages
actually i havent, i stand by my statement that canada almost ceased to exist and i proved that by showing that half the people of quebec voted to secede
im not following how you showing that the secessionist movement has lessened somehow disproves the 1995 vote
im not sure what you mean by saying i was dismissing southern states that argued for secession
yeah, whoever has a problem with obama being president needs to get with the program or get the fuk out
perry's comments were completely unacceptable and he should have been slapped for it, im against anything that threatens the integrity of the united states, including people like perry and multiculturalists
first of all, you equated quebec secession with perry's comments, all these post you guys are making explaining the convoluted reasons why you dont think quebec wasnt going to secede already proves that there was a chance that quebec would secede, and it was nothing like some side comment by perry about texas seceding
if quebec seceded it opened up the possibility that canada would cease to exist, that is a self evident statement, its not even a controversial statement, its just a fact

Im not familiar with the canadian model but isnt their primary language english and french? There really isnt a way for people to function and prosper in those nations without knowing one of those 2 languages. I just dont think you have much of a case here. If people want to speak 2 languages so be it but ultimately the VAST majority of people in the united states are going to speak the language of the land, in particular as it concerns business which the most important to the government. I cant really argue something thats in your imagination and not in reality.that assimilation process happens because traditionally english and other aspects of american culture are forced down the throat of immigrants, that is the way its been for 100 years
you and your mutliculturalist friends are arguing that english and american culture should not be forced down the throats and instead other cultures and languages should be treated equally as english and american culture, you are advocating the canadian model where languages and cultures are respected and treated equally
logic and common sense says changing the american tradition of pushing english and american culture on immigrants to a canadian model will slow down assimilation in the future
so its silly to extrapolate the same outcome when you are changing the tradition
Wow, well I'm convinced the only thing I un-American here is you

Hip hop culture as defined by KRS-One and Afrika Bambaataa is not mainstream American culture. KRS says it involves a unique "Street Language" as opposed to mainstream English. He also says it is a specific culture, to be written with a capital H just like any other culture. He also says: "A true Hip Hop education explores OUR sounds OUR way, and creates its own language."
Explain how your anti-multiculturalist, pro-integrationist ideas about culture and language square with your alleged promotion of an idea that specifically defines itself, according to the same founders you cite as an alternative, non-mainstream culture with a non-mainstream form of language.
