It's guilt by association.

Had they done their civic duty, they would've reported the illegal aliens to the proper authorities.

So the citizens should go around asking for Citizenship prrof from others?

lol yes ok.

I hope those caught in these nazi raids are on their way to sue for billions dont see why they can't as its pure rascism because they look a certain way they are arrested.

This will help stop these illegal raids

You certainly can, and many in fact do this. OR, you can be loyal to Mexico first, your ethnic group second, and America third....that's another way you could go...ON the OTHER hand, still others will choose the route of being loyal to their ethnic group first, Mexico second, and see no need for any loyalty to the US at ALL....particularly because the US itself tells them they don't "have to" be loyal...

There's all KINDS of ways you could go on this.....

Mancha recalled the words she said the immigration agents shouted during the September 2006 raid on her home. She was 15 at the time, a Mexican American, born in Texas but living in Reidsville, Ga.
"I walked around the corner from the hallway and saw a tall man reach toward his gun and look straight at me," Mancha, now 17, said in a thick Southern accent. "My heart just dropped."
Sure sounds american to me.

At the same hearing in February, Mike Graves, a U.S. citizen who has worked at a Swift meatpacking plant in Marshalltown, Iowa, for 21 years, testified that he was swept up in a 2006 raid "that felt like an attack."

An African American worker said in a hearing that he was handcuffed and detained for hours without food and water during a raid on an Iowa meatpacking plant in 2006.
At least read the story before you start making ignorant and baseless assumptions like you always do.

Whether or not you agree with it, as far as the IRS is concerned, the burden of proof is on the taxpayer . . the burden of proof, therefore, should be on the illegal aliens.

You are more than welcome to write Immigration and Customs Enforcement and ask about their affiliations with the Nazi Political Party, or why be shy . . go make a public accusation. Frankly, I find your argument as assinine as laws prohibiting TSA to only being able to search a percentage of suspicious Muslims at an airport.

By the way, racism, in English, is spelled differently.

Actually, Jesus words were "Be hot or cold, dont be lukewarm. I'll spit you out of my mouth." Kinda had a point, didn't he?

Actually . .

Matthew 12:25
And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.
Mark 3:24
And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
Mark 3:25
And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
Luke 11:17
But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.

Old school . . nothing new under the sun. Jesus didn't make it up.

Do you really believe that Jesus would condone how the undocumented
people are being treated? Where in his scriptures does he say that the Mexican people are not as good or worthy than the Americans?

If only we could put you as the face of what the pro-illegal movement is all about. We could bring millions more into the fold to fight against illegal immigrants.
