From 1830-1850 several cities and states revealed that immigrants took up half or more of public charity, institution space and criminal convictions despite being a small fraction of the total population.
In New York as much as three-fourths of the poor were foreigners and two-thirds of the criminally convicted the same, during different decades. In the great wealth of Massachusetts over years up to two-thirds of people consuming public help were foreigners. This trend was true in New Orleans, Pennsylvania, so on, all recorded before the Civil War.
This was during a time of a far smaller invasion than the Mass Migration of 1865-1924 or 1965-2024, periods of even worse immigrant stock, indicating that immigration has overwhelmingly been a negative for America for all time, as many founding fathers predicted it would be.

States and cities had passed laws of their own to manage the ever-pressing issue of importation, the in-migration of other people, but it was in 1819 that the first act to better regulate travel passed. A Steerage Act concerning the conditions and demographics of ships carrying any people toward the country. The decades following saw pieces of legislation come and go to address the entry of prostitutes and paupers and people easy to bar, but problems continued to come.
It wasn't until 1882 that America finally got its grips, after the cracks had become so deep, that an immigration restriction framework was made. The Act of 1882 imposed a head tax, created a general ban on the undesirable and founded a bureaucratic system to process people. In the same year, the Chinese Exclusion Act became law. But much more had to be doneβthe invaders were already in the gates, and a new wave was arriving.

The question of Blacks is less one of what to do and more one of what not to do. What not to do, is bend. Blacks have for a century demanded privilege by delivering violence as the demonstration of their 'need', and by intimidation or incorrect sympathy, or worse intentional subversion, they are given it.
Throughout the 1900s Black rebellions burned down towns and broke the nose of whomever tried to set it rightβarmed negroes took over capitols and colleges, fighting to earn supposed rights by committing a series of serious wrongs.
Abraham Lincoln himself said in 1958: "What I would most desire would be a separation of the White and black." In 1862: "[The black] race suffers by living among us, and our race suffers [from their] presence ... we should be separated". Suppression and separation are the societal answer, otherwise rebellion and race-mixing will work hard to annihilate that society.

The casualness of black crime has gone on for a long time, justified by them as an attack on the enemy, and protected by the courtsβsometimes covered by the schools, forgiven by the churches.
Beside all the cities burned and capitols raided in the 60s, there are dozens of reports of black gangs killing or maiming Whites, shooting police as acts of 'civil protest' and 'social justice' heroics.

A familiar story involving a black 'youth' and White riding an NY subway from 1965: Christopher Lynch tried to hassle Andrew Mormile, likely for money; Andrew refused, then pushed back. Christopher responded by plunging a knife into young Andrew's head.
Much like the murder of Austin Metcalf, the black had needed nothing more than the mere sight of a White disagreeing. Or like the murder of Iryna Zarutska, the black had no hesitation to do this in a public and open space.

Today is American flag day. It is also President Trump's birthday. For all I have discussed in this channel, it cannot be denied or ignored: President Trump has done the most. He not only recognises these truths with words, he paves the path to Reclaim America with action.
There is neither a figure nor figment that comes close in this era, although many great men have come and gone and very good men work today. Happy Birthday, and thank you for bringing respect and meaning to America's flag again. In my channel Appeal to Pragmatism I have compiled hundreds of examples of his efforts, which we all benefit from.

βThe stars and the red, white and blue colors have a significance of their own, but when combined and arranged into the flag of our nation they take on a new significance which no other form or color can convey. We identify the flag with almost everything we hold dear on earth. It represents our peace and security, our civil and political liberty, our freedom of religious worship, our family, our friends, our home. We see in it the great multitude of blessings, of rights and privileges, that make up our country.
But when we look at our flag and behold it emblazoned with all our rights we must remember that it is equally a symbol of our duties. Every glory that we associate with it is the result of duty done. A yearly contemplation of the meaning of our flag strengthens and purifies the national conscience.β
Words from former President Calvin Coolidge in June of 1931, reminding Americans to remember their banners.

In June we give particular appreciation to Texas, the state whose journey to join took years of fighting. After the 1845 resolution had passed, America pushed to rightfully take over the large territory. When you see the American flag, see its 28th star, remember that as the symbol of patriots who beat Mexicans.

Immigrant Gino Speranza says Americans are right to be wary of immigration β βThe issue today is, Shall the American spirit be of your fathers, or will you let it all be compromised for different people?β
The U.S. at this time held over 30 million unassimilated immigrants, written 1925. The tide had recently been stemmed, but the invaders were still in the gates. We today have a similar conflict, and must similarly ask: will we let perpetuate and prosper the good our nation's fathers had, or will we consent to unwanted change?
