> As the song says, “This land is my land, this land is (not) your land.” You want to come over here and move in and just rewrite our history? This was our place, our home, our way of life, for millennia. Not millennia, but centuries. Okay, decades. Years. A few years. The point is it’s ours and it’s not yours. Sure, it used to be someone else’s, and probably someone else’s before them, but now it’s mine, so I’m going to plant my flag and dig in. Let me put it bluntly: “CHANGE AND NEW THINGS SCARE ME.”
