I'm just saying, theres a lot of illegals who don't fit that look, and theres a lot of legal workers that do fit that look(not so say theyre "dirty", but dirty from working, possibly).

To say you can tell a legal from an illegal, and acting on that assumption doesn't seem productive.

If you see mestizos in Altoona, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to guess they are illegal. Even in NJ you can tell (riding bicycles is a dead giveaway). Ending birthright citizenship should be our first priority right now, then mandatory e-verify, followed by entry-exit system.

Face it:

When those insolent pro illegal immigrant losers held their rallies in May 2006---------that did a lot of PR damage to 'all' self identified Hispanics be the latter pro illegal or not.

I am not saying it is right: it just is.

The one thing that concerns me is innocent people of any race/ethnicity who look stereotypically Mestizo being caught in the crossfire.

so its ok to stereotype and profile, because i mean after all, black people do commit a disproportionate amount of crime in this country.

its funny you would justify this posters actions instead of tryin to show them how misguided they are. instead of proving them wrong, you justify their stance. after all those people were marching in droves.

interesting. and very telling.

The point is that the US is fed up with people, who have ZERO respect for the US and all the blood that was shed to make it, making demands to change our way of life for their comfort. Their will be to pay for making all these demands and the increased ICE raids are ONLY the beginning.

AzBear isn't condoning stereotypes; he's simply stating a fact. Illegal aliens have sullied the image of legal Hispanics in this country. Is it fair? Absolutely not! Is it fair that 10% of the black population have managed to perpetuate negative stereotypes ascribed to the remaining 90%? Absolutely not! However, it is a fact of life
