Area man doesn’t know that a gargantuan share of the Union soldiers who fought and died for the Republic were fresh off the boat. So yes, they literally fought and died for the rights of their children.

The majority of the Supreme Court believes that they died to guarantee that children of illegals and pregnant birth tourists would become American citizens

Don’t forget about introducing the swankiest uniforms and the standardization of baggy trousers

True maybe of the pre-war Army enlisted men, but not so much of the volunteers: Approximately 25% of the men who served in the Union Army and Navy during the Civil War were foreign born, and about 5% of the CSA Army’s soldiers were foreign born.

Lol, the prewar enlisted army was tiny as shit (that’s why it got its cheeks clapped at Bull Run)

I remember getting in a fight once with a guy about "Gangs of New York" and the arrival/recruitment scene of Irish fresh off the boat being signed up. They said it never happened, I said it did, he called me an ass, and I pointed to the near all Irish units at Gettysburg

I appreciate how utterly blunt this is; this is a policy of the American Empire and it's first tyrant, not of these United States of America and it's native peoples. Yankees will never be Americans, no matter how many of us you butcher to steal the name.

It wasn't a "gargantuan share". It was 25%. The confederacy had about 10% immigrants

To this day, does the US military take illegals or people with temporary status and promise their citizenship will be fast-tracked?

They were fleeing the wars of the 1840s, felt that this war was worth dying for and stayed instead of fleeing again (but some Germans inTX fled to Mexico and got hunted in hill country)

I really don’t think they foresaw commercial airlines back then either. Once you took the boat to America you were not going back.

No, they fought and died so the North could exploit labor more efficiently than outdated chattel slavery in the South.

Those men didnt come from Muslim and Hindu shit wholes. Those Christian men came and assimilated.

You don't have hordes of competent Germans and Irish to put us down this time.

Did they volunteer or were they conscripted by WASPs who saw these lesser whites as expendable

Yes impressing illiterate desperate foreign slaves into brutal low wage work is quite a theme for our government
