I think is is a dominant genetic trait that is passed down through the generations. (sarcasm off)

Second. I will no longer tolerate subtle personal attacks, calling or inferring racism, talk of killing people for being here illegally, subtle hints to either, and much more.

Is that the guy who told the hispanics at some march that "we're going to have babies, and the white people won't, so we're going to overtake them"??

How can an internet comment made, basically, by an anonymous person, about someone you've probably never met, be hurtful? I'm really curious.

No, no.......I think it was Professor Jose Angel Gutierrez of the Univerisity of Texas who made that observation. (It is terribly difficult to keep them all straight isn't it? So many people expressing their love for America!)

Antonio Villaraigosa is the rabidly pro-illegal Mayor of LA who told us that

Quote:
“Today we say to America: We’ve come here to work: We clean your toilets. We clean your hotels. We build your houses. We take care of your children. We want you to help us take care of our children as well.”
which prompted thousands of irate Americans who clean their own toilets to send Tony a toilet brush. This campaign resulted in his office being buried under a deluge of packages containing toilet brushes.

I don't understand, if people don't like where they live why don't they move? They just sit there and complain making their lives miserable.
