I've never seen it mentioned... where are you originally from?

 

[cap811]

Congrats!!
To many times many Americans forget what it would be like to not have the freedoms we enjoy here.

It's great to be free!!! Lets keep it that way.

 

[roo_ster]

Congrats, welcome, and may you have many more.

Congratulations! If even half the people who were actually born here understood the American ideal of freedom half as well as you do, the country would be a different place.

Congratulations. It's good that you know what your freedom is worth, unlike a lot of Americans who take it for granted. Thank you for being a positive contribution to our society.

[Dravur]

Isn't it traditional to...

Give presents of handguns to everyone you know on the 18th anniversary of someone emigrating to the US?

No? I could have sworn that was the case.

Well, anyway, Glad to have you here.

Thank You for all you have done and continue to do, your work here has touched countless other peoples lives for good.

Please keep up the good fight and continue to share and build the high road for us all to use and enjoy.

Glad to have you here a big welcome to you sir, You make the world a much better place for us all.

FWIW half my family are still living in the old country I'm a first generation American the part of the world my mom and her family comes from is still under Russian control.
They left everything behind during WW II and started over with only what they could carry.

Freedom is priceless many people live and die never having known its blessings.
