There have been many waves of illegal immigrants to this continent, but one of the most notorious arrived
Not speaking the language,
Carrying many contagious diseases,
Having few of the skills needed for the existing society, and
Quickly established a criminal record.
Who were these invaders who would not score many points as proposed in the current immigration bill? Why, the Pilgrims.
They did not speak Algonquian, the language of the Nauset whose land they occupied.
Over half of them had died from various diseases,
They knew very little about farming,
They stole grain stores from the local people, and
Eventually they murdered many of the locals.
I guess I can't complain too much about them; both my wife and son-in-law are descended from them.
