Preface
Dear our Martian friends: this Earthling superpower is passing away in front of our eyes, please come and resuscitate her.
Why let facts get in the way of scaring the bejesus out of gullible Americans, who gloss over reality and fall to their knees in awe of this reality TV prophet. Fact: violent crime is down 26% across the board in the last decade. (Just quietly, homicides were twice as high under The Reagan and George H. W. Bush administrations than they are currently). Sorry to those who think media hysteria actually equates to day-to-day life in 2016. We are not all dying on the streets from a constant barrage of evil lurking among us from the southern border, and those who have a skin tone belonging to the people's we all originated from.
This will infuriate the bigots, but crime caused by illegals is less per head than the average population, and even illegal border crossings are at 40 year lows. Poor little backward humanoids, you want to spit on those different from you (breaking news: we're all immigrants) but why is it that you never mention the white maniacs among us, oh, that's right, you have one as your Messiah (in the form of a tangerine racist living in his NY lair). We are dealing with dangerous people, the kind that want to scapegoat minorities, yet ignore any crime committed by their "type". There is a long list (even if you ignore the massacres in Charleston, Oklahoma City and Sandy Hook) of countless white crimes committed daily, heck even in one of America's most affluent towns (Plano, Texas) there have been examples of privileged white folk slaughtering their own. Humans can be hateful, no matter their creed or color, start by using that line, before outing only those you seek to use in your covert racist monologues.
I am proud to call the U.S. my adopted home, mainly due to the fact it is a melting pot that is all about a mass of humanity that grows as one. I will never tire of saying this (read carefully): if you are not a Native American your ancestors came from other lands, please refer to your family tree. I know this is difficult to comprehend, but humans share 99.9% of DNA, and even the whitest among us can trace their lineage to Africa. Let's all take a deep breath and celebrate what makes America great (yes, I went there): rising above the pettiness of judging folk on the outside and realizing we are all the same. If countries want to remain monolcultural or pit groups against each other, we not need lower ourselves to that medieval thinking. America keeps preaching about being a shining light and a beacon of liberty, can't see that being used if we are being led by fear mongers and worst of all, ordinary citizens taking the bait and believing false truths.
America just celebrated her 240th birthday, let's not forget it was built by the "great unwashed" (many of those came with nothing, not even documents). If we want to celebrate our 241st as a modern inclusive nation, then we must say an emphatic 'No' to the wannabe fascist Führer and his sheep on November 8th. Only then, will America remain a bastion of acceptance.
PS. Economically we're doing just fine - refer to Dallas' own Texas Instruments (one of the world's leading semiconductor developers), which has manufacturing and research labs in its backyard. Then you have Tesla Motors in Fremont, California. State-of-the-art electric vehicles exported worldwide, designed and made in the USA - China and Mexico will be disappointed.
