Cultural attitudes
The News Junkie found this interesting little piece
The Economist reports on a Harvard study that confirms what common sense would suggest: Immigrants bring with them the cultural attitudes of their home countries, and those attitudes persist in their children
Set aside the immigrant thang for just moment: it seems entirely logical that children are highly likely to inherit genetic abnormalities, unpaid credit card bills, as well as their parents' cultural attitudes. This is possibly why your humble correspondent’s seven year old daughter uses the word gay as a pejorative term.
Hold on....whats that? I think I can hear Social Services hammering at the front door.......

The nut doesn't fall too far from the tree?

duh. And they wonder why things are in a mess.
Refusal to assimilate and the whiny self-seeking imposition of their culture on their new home. Well, uh, what was so da** bad about their old home that they had to leave it for greener shores in the first place?
Don't let the border hit 'em in the backside on the way back to their own miserable 'turd world' country. Improve their lot there instead of imposing misery on the rest of the free world.
