America has never been a melting pot. Every new group of immigrants to this country have been horribly abused and hate crimed. Not just brown people either.

You aren't wrong about the abuse, but that doesn't make it any less a cultural melting pot for those who, you know, don't partake in hate crime or are themselves immigrants. Believing such has been taken or never existed only assures that they will in fact take that from us, as we do not have something which to continue fending for.

Finally some good commentary.

Yeah we’re funny like that. The world’s richest nation which consists solely of immigrants and stolen resources, and everybody always wants to pull the ladder up behind them.
