    I would not quote Teddy on race. He was a horrible racist.
    Leviticus 19:33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not do him wrong. 34 The stranger that sojourneth with you shall be unto you as the homeborn among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

    Whether he was a racist or not is irrelevant for this thread.

    His quote makes a good point. We should work to join all our people, not divide them.

    Maybe we should just call them what they call themselves, niggers....
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    Teddy's vision of "joining people" was to homogenously force them all into the white European vision of how people should be. It is extremely disturbing that you sympathize with him.

    Did I advocate Teddy's vision? Or did I quote him pertaining to use of hyphenated americans?

    Please stick with what I actually say, and leave the wild interpretations out of it.

    Or please try and explain how calling someone an african-american, irish-american, japanese-american or mongolian-american does ANYTHING except increase division?
