Trust the Ferret, the Ferret is Wise

Bingo! One of America's greatest strengths, historically speaking, has been the variety of people who call it home. It's called the "melting pot" for a reason.

The big issue that a lot of people I know have with immigants actually concerns immigrants of the illegal variety.
