I just don't get it....people from around the world come to the United States to escape the BS and lack of opportunity in their own country, then they take exception that the USA is different from their former homeland HELLO?

what's with these folks....

They need to assimilate vs. looking at it as just a change of venue, where they can vent their anger that they had to leave their former homeland

To those that say that it's too difficult of a song for them to sing...just speak the words, it's not that difficult...
