I love the idea that Americans look back to where they came from:

It doesn't mean shit. All you will find is that immigrants were treated badly!

In the global world we have all come from somewhere......why is it that US citizens deride there origins in Europe but NEED to know where they come from?

People in the US shit upon Europeans who came to America to find a better life.

You call Europeans names that frankly you have no knowledge of.

IF the Europeans had NOT come to your country who would have?

There were indigenous citizens already in your country...........who you wiped out.

I suppose the Europeans should be blamed for this?

In many cases: The Irish famine was caused by colonialism by the British BUT in the US you treated them like 2nd class citizens. The same with the Polish people/Ukranians.

All it was about if you take time to read is MONEY

Immigrants coming into the USA NOW are worth nothing.

Capitalism is the name of the game.

I am not quite sure whom you are on about, but I was born in a pile of hay on the upper floor of a barn, and I lived much of my adult life in europe.
