My cultural heritage is supposed to be a “Chinoy,” meaning I am Filipino who looks Chinese! However, I was born and raised American.
Just as we were about to leave the McD restaurant off Brokaw, we overheard the regular homeless guy complaining loudly about being kicked out of a grocery store.
This was after I was describing (aloud) how wonderful it would be to design a grocery bag with rhinestone and a monogram with “MOM” emblazoned on the front.
The tall Chinese guy (who seemed to be also a regular) hollered back at the deeply, tanned white guy (with a narrow face and thick bottled-eyeglasses): “Go sue them”.
The homeless guy hollered back: “I am American! I don’t sue anybody.”
There you go, folks. I too am American and won’t sue anyone. Perhaps, “the Donald” needs to do something about FOREIGNERS!

“when exactly did someone sit down and consider the alternatives?”
Let’s see. As of yet, the boy has not returned my text message about their third wedding anniversary gifts of a dozen pink roses by Maw and a greeting card signed by Paw yesterday. I can tell the boy is a henpeck and refuses to tell the twit how she has hurt the feelings of her mother-in-law and disrepected the traditions of her father-in-law.
“How can a person define their own identity? Is it good to do this? Why or why not?”
A person can define their own identity by how clueless they are in a multicultural society. Those “traditionalist” who continue to practice their heritage will never adapt/adjust to the progressive movement of change, which is supposed to be good for everyone. If these FOREIGNERS live in America and wanted to leave their oppressive countries, WTF are they still complaining?
