View Full Version : Most Common Country of Origin of Legal Immigrants
Interesting graphic showing where the United States' legal immigrants are most likely to hail from (besides Mexico). Because Mexican immigrants would dominate the map, they've been excluded to allow a more diverse picture.
The data used to create the map is from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which defines a legal permanent immigrant on their website as:
… foreign nationals who have been granted the right to reside permanently in the United States. LPRs are often referred to simply as “immigrants,” but they are also known as “permanent resident aliens” and “green card holders.”

immigrants is a libtard/democrat/socialist word and it's real definition is "criminal illegal aliens". "Legal immigrants" fill out paperwork and wait their turn.

Ironic, the more open America becomes to the world the more closed America is to her citizens...

We have a third world immigrant as POTUS. :D
You think the incumbent is bad, you put Hitlery in the Oval Office, and you will see graft and corruption that would make Manuel Antonio Noriega envious.
The Klinton Global Initiative is just a warm-up.

And if you think this is bad, it is just the tip of the iceberg. Check out Ann Corcoran's website: https://refugeeresettlementwatch.wordpress.com/

I'm speculating what you might mean here:
Who ever they turn out to be, no I am not. I did consider them as I made the statement as I was referring to all American citizens.
Granted there are many reasons why our society is becoming more closed, I don't blame that on legal immigration and we have covered our views about that. I was taking a stab at the idea that we can't increase legal immigration quotas and give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants indefinitely. Clearly we have challenging issues on many levels in this country and I can't understand that the answers involve increasing the population. Look to the most liberal states to see the more obvious examples, they are already the indicators.
Further, I question the assimilation of larger numbers of immigrants. We see they are not integrating the same way some of our ancestors did. That is the way it's supposed to work, immigrants to a new country are by their act becoming citizens of that new country, the country they wanted to come to. The other way around is not immigration.

----- The other way around is not immigration.
Nope - it's colonization. And that's exactly what's happening with illegal immigrants, preferential immigrant status, and refugee resettlement. All strategies to dilute resistance to assimilation into the liberal Borg Collective.
Bulls-eye Peregrino! You nailed it.

Nice job, Brother... colonialism, socialism and Star Trek in one post and it actually works to make the point. :cool: That Graduate Degree from the University of Pineland is paying off!:D
For those who are interested in following this charade, here is more info.
Hatched by the U.N. and the American Left, the resettlement agenda is dedicated to erasing our culture, traditions and laws, and creating a compliant, welfare-dependent multicultural society with no understanding of America’s constitutional framework and no interest in assimilation. The ultimate target is a voting base large enough for the Left’s long-sought “permanent progressive majority.”
Most people would be shocked to know that America currently takes more refugees from the world’s ghettos than all other refugee resettlement countries in the world combined. The State Department brags about it. Furthermore, most of those refugees are referred to the United States by the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). The refugees (and the illegal aliens flooding the southern border from Central America) are then “resettled” by taxpayer funded “Voluntary Agencies” or VOLAGs as they are called.
There are nine of them, six nominally religious, but all are in it for the money and top staff make high six figures. Together the VOLAGs are paid close to $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to resettle refugees. Two more organizations who settle most of the unaccompanied alien children (UAC) brought the total to over $1.3 billion last year.

And you honestly believe that the conservatives in government would go along with such a conspiracy without exposing it and railing against it? How do you think that tidy little bit of bogeymanism squares with what the ORR is and does? :confused:

Just for argument sake...
Yes.
I believe that the CURRENT crop of republicans would absolutely go along with such a conspiracy if it would:
1) Keep them in office
2) Increase their net worth
3) prevent someone from "outing" one of their dark secrets
I agree 99.98 percent with your stance on the level of boogeymanism that we apply to government. The problem is, our current American government has a "Brian Fantana" approach to legislating the health and well being of the United States of America.
...60% of the time, it works EVERY time.
Party affiliation has nothing to do with it.
Democrats will lie and republicans will swear to it.
SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW:
"Family values republican" is a good example of why I think the republicans would ABSOLUTELY stay quiet...
...does anyone doubt that a penchant for fucking young boys could have been used to get Dennis Hastert to support something that wasn't exactly a "conservative" issue?
Does anyone NOW wonder why Dennis Hastert was so quick to look the other way during the "sexting scandal" that hounded him when he was still the speaker?
The map looks different when it reflects the actual "most common" country of origin. I'd like to see a graphic that address ILLEGAL immigration.
...legal immigration isn't really all that of a hot-issue topic.

FWIW, the attached PDF provides a nation-wide summary for the data mapped out in link provided in the OP.
Are you 100% Native American?
:munchin
No such thing, as most of those folks wandered over here from Asia, according to current prevailing anthropology theories.
