I just found the whole thread funny b/c people that post this stuff want to suggest that a whack job like that lady somehow represents a large swath of the Latino community.

I mean I COULD post racist garbage that is heard at Tea Party rallies. But that does NOT mean that one nut job person represents the entire Tea Party movement (or even the average non-hispanic white view).

By the way, that lady is WHITE.....
Difference is that most Hispanics and opponents of SB1070 don't defend this whack job, if she indeed is for real. Most teabaggers will defend the racist within their ranks.

Perhaps the “brown beret” and uniform gave them a clue. If you saw someone sitting in a car wearing a white KKK hood and robe, would you actually have to wait until they approached you to know what they represent?

Someone wearing a brown beret in a car is just as identifiable as someone wearing a White hood and a robe? LOL. I've worn black berets, what does that represent? I've also worn black skull caps, what does that represent?

The Tan Klan has a distinguishing uniform just as the KKK. Don’t play games.

Uniform? LOL, you mean a short sleeve tan shirt. Jesus, Sheriffs wear shirts almost identical to theirs, I have a shirt like that. I guess they and I are members.

I have to say - you're good - Deflect any discussion to arguing over small details so the main thrust of the OP is lost in the shuffle. It's a VERY common and deceitful way of conducting an "argument" imho

Looks like you've had a lot of practice at it too.
