83. So let me get this straight...
If by chance you're born in the United States you must stay there for the rest of your life, you must never move to another country under any circumstances or for any reason -- otherwise you're a coward. Only cowards ever move out of the country of their birth.

Does this rule only apply to people leaving the U.S.? Presumably a Brit who decides to move to the U.S. is also a coward, since he or she should have stayed Britain to fight whatever political events are in motion there now. And don't forget those hordes of Hispanics, Asians, Africans, Australians, Chinese, Japanese who ran away from their homelands.

By this standard, there can be no immigration with honor since all immigrants are just running away from their own country. Everyone should just stay put and properly honor the country of their birth.

How dull.
