Native Americans: They’re Illegal Immigrants, Essentially

Yeah well who is has been sitting on government reservations for over 200 years.

The same government who deemed illegal immigration deemed Indians illegal to make way for the in crowd Europeans just exactly like is happening now for southern 'immigrants'.

Rinse and repeat history.

Can you link any official statements that Indians live here or ever lived here in an illegal status? They are duel citizens with being Americans and natives.

You know at one time there were no borders in the world and then civilizations started to make them. Countries formed and 1000s of wars over land have been fought, and typically one side wins and one side looses with the winners getting more lands. Then something funny happened and people sat down after these wars and drew lines all over the world to represent borders. ALL OVER THE WORLD...America is no different then the rest of the world, but lets go forward 100s of years..

Today there is not a county in the world that wants anyone in their country without approval and documentation. Hell, I would be heavily fined or sent to jail for sneaking into Mexico. My sister in-law has been waiting 10 years for a chance to live here and will wait another 10 most likely, but it is ok to sneak into the county for citizenship. With a whole world full of people wanting to be American why do the ones that come here illegally get the breaks?

Stop discussing/arguing about the Indians/Natives people...

The headline and claim of the OP and source articles is:

Megyn Kelly, a prominent Fox News anchor, said recently that Native Americans are illegal immigrants, essentially

Megyn Kelly Did not say this.

Source





Someone else on her program during a clip said, "The pilgrims were illegal immigrants" during a sensitivity session. There is no discussion as this article and the source are lying/misrepresenting the facts.

Thank you.

I want to see this video too in context. I do not believe she would say such a thing - she's too smart for that and i do not think she believes American Indians are illegal immigrants.

Find the video or throw this in the HOAX bin.

BIN has 'stories' written by essentially bloggers that push fantastically sensationalized fables.

the 'writer's' 'source' is greenreview.blogspot.com.

greenreview.blogspot.com is Green Living Review, and is an environmental blog.

Green Living Review is supposedly focused on gardening, but probably is a low level front for the "Green" flat-heads.

I think Megyn Kelly made some choice comments lately about "Green" stuff.

That is probably why she is being targeted by the weenie-greenie blogs.

Those guys are a touchy bunch and get brain-frosted easily.

Its what we call family.
What else can you call it when you adopt a whole group of people as your own, forced or unforced. Choice or no choice. Move or be moved. Get along to go along. How many ways can we put it?

American is a great term, it refers to the large location of land in which a group of people co-exist peacefully with shared ambitions of freedom and liberty.

O.o

This thread should be deleted on the fact that this "idea" is asinine.

Anyone that believes this is obviously uneducated and without a doubt a huge moron.

nevermind

So why is this thread in the hoax section?

Never mind, I see why it is there now.

Excuse me? The thread is about a FOX reporter making this statement, the thread is not promoting the statement itself.

Exactly, and she (among anyone else that thinks this way) are morons.

As previously stated.

I dislike Fox News with a passion but I do not find ANYTHING anywhere that supports any truth to this meme. I wrote an email to the author of that Green Living blog letting them know the deal and suggesting they might post verification if they know of any.
