Nothing wrong with being Lithuanian, Lazy One; Luthuanians are white, and should be welcomed in any white nation - United States included.
I agree that orientals should adopt American names, though. It should just be a minimum expectation for someone who expects to immigrate to this country and be part of American society. If they want to retain their oriental culture, then they should stay in China or Japan. No one is forcing them to immigrate to the United States.

So what's your real name?
Geronimo, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse?
I can understand being frustrated with someone who doesn't know the language. Don't do it myself, since English is hard to learn and most people who need to come here weren't in positions where they could learn it beforehand. (It's "Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free," not "Give me your educated people who come off the boat speaking English and don't make the small town white dudes too uncomfortable.")
Thinking people should change their names too? "America" was named for a fucking Italian! Should it change its name? Face it trollpants, Whitebread-Americans aren't the only people allowed to be here.
The first line gives this away; it's not about culture, or language, or immigration numbers. It's skin color. The American Asshole is just another fucking racist.
Tell you what, dickhead: If you don't like it, why don't you go back where YOU came from: Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda or thereabouts. What's that? You're not black? Tough; it's where we're all from originally. Have fun in your purity.
"Nothing wrong with being Lithuanian, Lazy One; Luthuanians are white, and should be welcomed in any white nation - United States included."
White people weren't here first.
Yes everyone should adopt American names, like Advirondacks, Apalahicola, and Chippewa. No reason we should make the real Americans try to pronounce our European names.
"I agree that orientals should adopt American names"
Like Cheney, Gonzales, Wolfowitz, Mukasey, Chavez, von Eschenbach, Khalilzad, Negroponte, Fleischer, Gottesman, Schoomaker, Alito, Raggi, Van Antwerpen, Prado, Gruender, Ikuta, Tymkovich, Gorsuch, Bernanke and Zoellick perhaps? (Hint: All nominated/appointed by G. W. Bush for cabinet posts.)
Maybe they could do so right after "Roosh Limb-owge" changes his name to Richard Lumber?
They are not "immigrating", they are either migrating or emigrating. Immigration are the people who come to YOUR country, from your point of wiew.
Lithuania, I know, but what is Luthuania? There are (or where, before WW II) lots of jews in Lithuania, are they also welcome in any "white" nation?
Is it only the orientals that should adopt "American" names? What about arabs, eskimos, slavs, aborigines, maoris, africans? And American names includes so much. Atahualpa, Hernan, Tenochtitlan, Che Guevara, Orbegoso, Fidel...
I think you'll find Lithuanian names harder to pronounce than Japanese or Vietnamese names.
That's a low blow, making fun of a man's words when he's out riding range and can't get to his computer to defend himself. FYI, the joke is on you guys. I intentionally frame my comments in a way that will get a rise out of politically correct liberals, and you guys fall for the bait every time. You might be interested to know that most Americans would agree with me on this issue; we are just not as vocal as some of the raging liberals that dominate the mainstream media.
And, Table Rock, your name is fine; there's nothing to worry about. The only problem you might encounter is that some Italian names sound like Mexican names, which might confuse some people.

I apologise, cowboy. I had no idea you were deliberately making yourself sound stupid.
Well done!
So, American Clownboy, if "most Americans agree" with you - where are they? Out on the Bigot Trail, sounds like it's just you and a very few other stray cattle. Enjoy your dream reich while it lasts. The majority of voters, not just here but nationwide, were for a guy named Barack Hussein Obama. They still are, and you're still a pathetic loser.
Lucius, apparently, you didn't see the tea parties yesterday. Most Americans are fed up with Barack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro.
Just like when you move to France you'll adopt a French name, when you move to Japan you'll adopt a Japanese name, and when you move to Kenya you'll adopt a Kenyan name. Oh, what's that? Why should you be expected to give up your identity just to accommodate the people in your new home who are too damned lazy/bigoted to even try to pronounce your name? Tell me then, why should someone who moves to the USA be expected to do just that?
AHAHAHAHAAAA!
The "tea parties?" You have got to be fucking kidding me. That's your evidence?
Here's a quick math lesson, Cowfucker: By the most generous estimates, maybe 1 million showed up to your precious tea parties. There are more than 300 million people in the United States, and about 122 million of them voted last November. At the very best, you're still about 60 MILLION PEOPLE short of a majority even among recent voters, much less the population as a whole. Public opinion polls also give Obama widespread approval. All your public tantrums managed to do was clearly demarcate the crazed fascists and bigots in this country. I'm considerably heartened to find out that's no more than one person in 300.
So have a great time teabagging each other. The real majority - black, white and everyone who's not an idiot - has a great country to run.
What's an American name? In Worcester, my neighbors were the Farrells, the Thibealts, the Bouchers, the Romanowskis, the Garcias, and in Boston I live near the Sullivans, the DeLucas, the Martinezes, the Mendeses, and the DaCostas. If you want to live here, get used to pronouncing Irish, French, Polish, Spanish, and Portuguese names, because you'll deal with them daily. You may also have some Chinese, Vietnamese, or Cambodian neighbors, depending where you live. Get used to it.
"Here's a quick math lesson, Cowfucker: By the most generous estimates, maybe 1 million showed up to your precious tea parties. "
Lucius, that is actually being overly generous.
The highest numbers I heard for the teabagging parties were 100,000 or so in around 700 locations.
It was pathetic. The teabagging parties drew numbers that President Obama has been able draw at INDIVIDUAL locations.
Most Americans support President Obama. That is average, ordinary America. I'm tired of you douchebags trying to steal that title for yourselves - you are a fringe minority and the country really would be better without you.
And another thing -
If you "real American" conservatives are so damn tough, why do you spend all of your fucking time whining?
You folks whine about the media. You whine about the public schools. You whine about the universities. You whine about the President. You whine about science. You whine about how the top 1% of the country, which make 30% of the income, have to pay higher taxes than the rest of us.
You whine about gay marriage. You whine about abortion rights. You whine about environmentalists. You whine about immigrants. You whine about minority groups. You whine about other religions. You whine about...
The list goes on and on. All you shitheads do is whine and complain about progress and how everyone thinks you are a bunch of assholes. It's so goddamned annoying. If you guys hate America so much, no one is forcing you to stay.
Those stupid little teabagging protests really summed it up for me. You're teabaggers. It really sums up your natures perfectly.
If "most Americans" are fed up with Mr Obama, then why the heck did the vote for him in the first place?
And you did not pull out anything liberal in me. Over here the liberals are as rightwing as the conservatives, sometimes even more so. Some of us are fed up with the conservative/liberal/farmer/Christian coalition that rule us now.
What was that about Italian beeing confused for Mexican. That's good isn't it. Mexico is on the American continent, so more "American" than Italian names are. And if you are at all linguistic Italian is rather different than Spanish.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
