You do know the poem was written long after the Statue was made correct? "The New Colossus was written by The Jewish American poet Emma Lazarus saw the statue as a beacon to the world. A poem she wrote to help raise money for the pedestal, and which is carved on that pedestal, captured what the statue came to mean to the millions who migrated to the United States seeking freedom, and who have continued to come unto this day. It was added later but was not part of the original statue in any way.

Do you understand sarcasm and how it can be used to make a point regardless of the true facts involved?
Just take it as that and deal with it.

Most people don't know the history of it. But thanks for getting triggered. I was only stating a fact. Sorry if it offended your sensitive nature. Golf Foxtrot Yankee.

maradr only referenced the statue itself and said nothing about the poem.

If the statue was for freedom and independence then why would we not need it any longer if the poem was not the incorrect meaning behind that statement we no longer need it. It is the statue of Liberty not the statue of Immigration. But it is just a crappy f**king meme.

What is the name. Not triggered. It is a simple answer. Statue of Liberty or Statue of Immigration. Now make a better meme or eat a shit sammich and hold the bread.

Yup. The statue was in respect for America being a shining beacon to the world, nothing to do with open borders and immigration. The poem was a guilt trip due to the pogroms in Russia.

WOW... I don't need or wish to explain the context of the meme to you, it is nunyaf**kenbusiness so ...no, i will not make another just to please you, If you do not like it or think it is stupid, that is your opinion and your right as an American, As it is also mine to express myself in any way i see fit. I understand it is hard for some to grasp the concept of satire and sarcasm, I wont hold this against you. Have a good day.
