Let's go back to your original statement, shall we?
"Sounds like you really dislike Hispanics. I thought the issue wasn't about ethnicity, guess i was wrong".
The poster you were addressing was referring to the illegal kind not Hispanics in general but you chose to turn it into a dislike for all Hispanics. It is called race baiting.
Let's go back to the original quote, shall we?

Yes, let's do that. Just because he didn't put the word illegal in front of the word Hispanics, I think anyone with half a brain knows that is who he was referring to. Besides, what is wrong with mentioning facts without being accused of some "irrational" dislike of the whole group? Why not address those facts that were mentioned instead?

I could be mistaken, but I do believe the majority of Hispanics on welfare are living in this country illegally. I know lots of Hispanics, and none are on welfare. In fact, most are professionals, and give birth to the number of children they can afford to support. On the other hand, Hispanic illegal aliens, by and large, are uneducated, low wage-earners, who irresponsibly give birth and expect taxpayers to support them.
Yes, a link was posted in here awhile back to confirm that. Many of these Hispanics are here illegally and are collecting welfare through their anchor babies and that is just a fact.
Why do you get all bent out of shape when those facts are mentioned about Hispanics (especially the illegal kind) and yet you say nothing when someone in here recently went on the attack of white people and not based on fact? Do you at least report them to the moderators? I doubt it.
As the illegal immigration debate heats up, an anti-hispanic tone has been strongly associated to it. Instead of keeping the argument about legal immigration many radicals curse the use of spanish, or spanish culture per se, as if illegal immigration and spanish culture are the same thing, the direct effect has been that the hispanic population has united more than ever before, in a common front against discrimination, and with hispanic-americans numbering over 50 million, the implicit is obvious, hispanic americans have the power to sway elections one way or the other, and since the gop has been so loud, they will pay the political price, with the added insult that hispanic-americans are the fastest growing ethnicity, and this change will have short and long term consequences....
If you read many of the posts here, it's not that hard to see the connection between the anti-immigrant movement and barely concealed racism.
Immigration needs a LOT of reform, but most of the reasoning behind it is less than disgusting.

You're right: I don't want illegal aliens here. Mexico is more racist against Guatemalans since they treat the illegal ones real bad, much WORSE than how we treat illegal Mexicans.

Quite true,
If we had the same immigration policy as Mexico we would not have the Illegal Alien problem we have today. Mexico thinks they can bad mouth the US when their policy is far more Anti Illegal then anything we could ever have: "Pot meet Kettle"
