The following statement is eccentric at the least:  "They moved inside the Empire and did not leave their native country for a foreign land, so they are not considered 'immigrants' any more than a person who moves from Florida to Alaska today". Again it sounds like one person's personal opinion, so that it's reasonable to ask for a source from a reputable historian. North America, was colonized by foreign immigrants. It is a fact, not false news or a liberal lie. CP's point of view is, I presume, that illegal immigration should end, but it surely also believes that the past history of immigration has to be based on facts not personal opinion–and that the dictionary definition of immigration is important.

:The statement that you have a problem with is a matter of logic and definitions -- I don't think we need to cite a PhD historian to cite that it's not immigration if we have a clear definition of immigration (which we do) and a situation where people remain inside territory controlled by the same empire. Using logic, there's nothing wrong with the sentence.
