A LETTER TO A SMALL DOSE OF REALITY...
Dear BG,
Your "New Preamble to the Constitution" is steeped in soft-shoe racism and ignorance, but there I go repeating myself.
You say there are those among us that are changing the heritage of our nation... Who's changing the heritage of this country? (Maybe it's you.)
HERITAGE:
1. Property that is or can be inherited; an inheritance. 2. Something that is passed down from preceding generations; a tradition. 3. The status acquired by a person through birth; a birthright: a heritage of affluence and social position. SYNONYMS: inheritance, legacy, tradition.
~~~
What if we, which is within our rights, decide to leave our inheritance to a traditional Latino/American family, or an African/American family or a Jewish/American family or a Muslim/American family or a Russian/American family or a mixed race American family, etc? Bet you never thought of that one did you?
~~~
INHERITANCE:
-The rules of inheritance differ between societies and have changed over time.
Inheritance of what, stolen land? Inheritance of property (land) is one thing, but inheritance of ignorance is the death knell for the republic, or even for democracy.
~~~
LEGACY:
1. money or personal property left to someone by a will. 2. something handed down to a successor.
You're repeating yourself.
~~~
TRADITION:
1. The passing down of elements of a culture from generation to generation, especially by oral communication. 2. (a) A mode of thought or behavior followed by a people continuously from generation to generation; a custom or usage. (b) A set of such customs and usages viewed as a coherent body of precedents influencing the present: followed family tradition in dress and manners. 3. A body of unwritten religious precepts. 4. A time-honored practice or set of such practices. 5. Law. Transfer of property to another. A specific practice or thought pattern of long standing.
~~~
You do realize that our "traditions" were either stolen, co-opted or developed using the talents, blood sweat and tears of our ancestors, don't you?
~~~
ARTICLE X:
"This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from!"
Our ancestors, for your information, were all from different lands (aliens), aside from the traditions of the aboriginal North Americans (which we've been content with simply destroying) and whom, by the way, did not speak a lick of The King's English, until that is, they had to speak it to protect themselves from English speaking barbarians!

IGNORANCE: the state in which one lacks knowledge, is unaware of something or chooses to subjectively ignore information.
Ignorance is a tradition most utilized by we the people.
It will be to the detriment of her sovereignty if it remains thus.
