Court House - Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address memorialized a battlefield “consecrated” by the blood of the soldiers who fought there. At the time, roughly 25% of the Union Army were immigrants, some 543,000 out of 2 million and another 18% had at least one foreign-born parent. Immigrants and the sons of immigrants made up 43% of the U.S. armed forces. I'm a conservative, I love our country and I'm not for open borders. However, it's clear our president is a racist or he's stirring the pot of racism. I don't want a return to Jim Crow.
