Supposedly it's because you don't know they're foreign until they open their mouths.

So not true.

Eastern European immigrants stick out like sore thumbs; I can spot one a mile away.

When was the last time you saw an ATM machine that said press 2 for Polish? The last time I was in the ER we had a 6 hour wait. After hammering the woman at the desk for answers she finally admitted that the wait was due to the fact that they only had one interpreter on the shift. I wonder if that was a Polish interpreter......

I still don't get the implication though that they "fit in better". Most illegal immigrants are from south of our border but there are millions of Hispanic citizens in our country also. When either group opens their mouths I wouldn't know if they are of the first catagory or the second. I think we all know that this was just an attempt to pull the race card.

In any event, just like i said on the other thread, no one cares about Polish illegal immigration. They fit in better.
So illegal does not mean illegal...all the time.

You mean the illegals from South of the border - thats okay.
Now those Eastern Europeans to try the same thing is a felony.

What was the guy thinking? Obviously Poles are not a significant voting block and therefore NOT allowed to break the law like illegals from South of the Border.

Only you two are claiming that. I have yet to hear anyone state that Europeans should not be expected to abide by our nation's laws --- HOWEVER, I hear La Raza racists all the time insist that no one from a hispanic country should be expected to respect our laws. It's ONLY the La Raza types who will come right out and say there should be no limits on immigration from hispanic nations, but you never hear anyone say the same thing about immigrants from other countries.
