Well, every human being migrated from somewhere, at some
time.

Nope.
I was born in the US, I am native.

Earliest humanoid remains have been found in Africa, therefore,
you're
African.

Nope.
I have never been to Africa.
I was born in the US, I am a native.

Take us back to the first generation of your ancestors who touched
this
soil. Where were THEIR grandparents from?

How is that relevent to, well, anything at all?
They are all dead.
I, however, was born here in the US and am a native.
Aren't you?

It's relevant to me, and nobody needs to know why.

Lemme get this straight, you ask me a question, then I ask you for the
relevency and you tell me I don't need to know why?

Relative to this
question, you are behaving like Dave Hall, refusing to answer a question

Well, if refusing to answer a question makes one like Dave Hall, then you
might consider yourself like him as you haven't answered my question about
relevency.

which may erode your stance in this discussion. That's a Very Bad Thing.

sigh
Doug, my grandparents were born in the US, Pennsylvania.
So was my mom and dad and myself and brothers and sisters.
I do not know where any relatives before my grandparents were from, nor do
I
really care.

But, you DO know that it's relevant to this discussion about diversity. The
word, as you're using it, clearly means "people from someplace else". Based
purely on population numbers, it's a virtual certainty that you have
ancestors who were not native Americans. If you have a problem with
diversity, your reasons are probably general enough that they would've
applied to your ancestors, too.
