More background to this story below

Ingrid Alvarez-DiMarzo, executive director of the Hispanic Center of Greater Danbury, said the incident could raise fears the city is headed back to the days of 2007 and 2008, when relations with the immigrant community were at a low ebb.

Why are these Hispanic organizations looking after the best interest of illegal citizens over US citizens. Should that not be a conflict of interest.

How was my comment racist.

Would you quote those particular posts that supposedly display racism or ethnic prejudice? I'll wait. I certainly can point out those types of comments/views on the pro-illegal side.
