Ah yes, argumentum ad hominem. The argumentative form of lesser beings, when actual arguments fail them. I enjoyed you being butthurt, now enjoy all the benefits of living in USA. Oh, wait...

@Sajip

Ah yes, argumentum ad hominem. It's terrible, I agree. The only worse thing in the world is not having a sense of humour.

@Japanball

I am not so arrogant as to actually consider you a lesser being - I used it in a sentence, where I said that ad hominem was for such beings. Essentially I called myself a lesser being. I am sorry, if you do not understand my jokes. Maybe I was right all along.

Mon dieu.

Indeed, he was neither serb or croat.
Was in fact istro-romanian cause of his great-great-grandparents.
He also never denied the posibility of being istro-romanian.

He was a pure Proto-Indo-European-Cro-Magnon-Hunter-Gatherer

"If you are American, there is an 85% chance that your ancestors were immigrants."

85%? Lolno.

There are estimated to be 5 million native Americans in the US. 327 million americans. 98.4% of Americans are not native americans.

That implies that at LEAST 98.4% of people have immigrants as ancestors, except it's surely much more than that because most "native americans" aren't 100% native american.

I can pretty confidently state that if you're an American, there is over a 99% chance that your ancestors were immigrants.

Hell, lets push the logic even further.

If you live in America, or any place that isn't Africa, there is a 100% chance your ancestors were immigrants.

85%? Lolno.

You seem to forget the fact that there are African-Americans whose ancestors were slaves forcefully brought here, not as immigrants, and also Mexicans living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and California when those areas were part of Mexico and not the U.S.

Also, the true number is likely closer to 97% due to interracial marriage as you said, but I wanted to go for a conservative estimate and err on the side of caution.

sounds gay

The anti-Mexican and muslim rhetoric we see from Trump is *exactly* like the anti-Irish rhetoric in the 19th century:

"They are poor, disease-ridden. Their going to take our jobs and welfare. They practice an alien religion and pledge allegiance to a foreign leader. They're criminals, rapists."

exactly the same.

Then the Irish assimilated and started hating on the Italians.

Today the assimilated Latinos hate on the ones in the caravans. The cycle continues.

But Mexicans do take jobs it's not surprising (nor immoral) that this upsets blue collar Americans
