Codewords of Hate for Stacy Burdett spot

Surprisingly, many people use these terms and do not know they are being racist, or they know they are racist but try not to appear that way. The above video is short and it speaks the truth.

Notice: The ADL makes absolutely little to NO distinction between legal immigrants and illegal aliens. Why is that?

Invaders? Because encouragement from the Mexican government to migrate illegally and intentionally providing support to illegal Mexicans in the US via Mexican consulates should not be considered an a invasion? What about all the poll in which 58% of those Mexicans polled believed that the Southwest is still part of Mexico?

Dehumanization? Again, notice that the ADL makes NO distinction between legal immigrants and illegal aliens. Of course any criticism of flows of poorly educated illegals will not be tolerated by them and thus it's hate speech.

Conspiracy theory? Yeah the Mexican schools don't teach their students that the US belongs to Mexico and they certainly don't provide their illegal citizens in the US will all kinds of support.

The ADL hates criticism of illegal migration and free speech.

Nice try again. Stop trying to blur the lines between legal immigrants and illegal aliens. You and the ADL know the differences between them yet you both refuse to acknowledge the differences for your own pro-illegal and selfish reason(s).

Thank you . Hopefully people will watch this video and at least be like "Hey, I didn't know I was being racist/xenophobic..." People really don't notice they are using the same tactics the KKK uses, and their favorite... fear.

Let me guess - 'illegal' is now considered hatespeech?

Legal immigrants are great - those that overstay their visa or pay a coyote to sneak into the US are not. They are criminals....oh, is that hatespeech too?

Isn't that the same thing that the illegals and their supporters have tried to do? Use the fear of being called racists/xenophobic to shut up Americans that don't agree with their agenda? I think it is.

Apparently so.

Yep, and playing the race card and refusing to distinguish legals from illegals is certainly no better.

Face it, you and your pro-illegal cronies don't like criticism of illegal immigration and so YOU resort to accusations of racism and xenophobia to silence any opposition to illegal immigration.

One continuously used tactic is to group legals and illegals into the same group and make no distinction whatsoever.

Nice try but it gets old after a while. Your politically correct, pro-illegal & anti-free speech accusations are pathetic and people are waking up to your shameful lies.

What's the next move? People who can't get their weed and snort smuggled in will call people what for standing up against it? As far as I am concerned the lines are very slim between the backers of illegal workers and backers of illegal drugs. We are a sovereign Nation that needs to stay within the rules of what made us great.

If you are a complete burden on our Society you should not be allowed into our great Country. We cannot feed the entire planet.

Immigrants don't bring disease? That's not what the Journal of the American Medical Association says.

People who legally emigrate to the US are screened for TB. Add it up any way you like.

Quote:
Trends in Tuberculosis—United States, 2008

Foreign-born persons and racial/ethnic minorities continued to bear a disproportionate burden of TB disease in the United States. In 2008, the TB rate in foreign-born persons in the United States was 10 times higher than in U.S.-born persons. TB rates among Hispanics and blacks were nearly eight times higher than among non-Hispanic whites, and rates among Asians were nearly 23 times higher than among non-Hispanic whites. In 2008, among persons with TB whose country of origin was known, approximately 95% of Asians, 76% of Hispanics, 32% of blacks, and 18% of whites were foreign born. Among U.S.-born racial and ethnic groups, the greatest racial disparity in TB rates was for U.S.-born blacks, whose rate was seven times higher than the rate for U.S.-born whites. Intensified efforts are needed to address the slowing decline in TB incidence and the persistent disparities that exist between U.S.-born and foreign-born persons and between whites and minorities in the United States.

<snip>

Four states (California, Florida, New York, and Texas) reported more than 500 cases each for 2008,
Now why do you suppose that might be?

Quote:
The proportion of TB cases contributed by foreign-born persons has increased each year since 1993. This is a reflection of high rates of TB in countries of origin for U.S. immigrants.

<snip>

The proportion of TB cases that are multidrug resistant has remained approximately 1% of culture-positive cases since 1997; however, MDR TB has continued to disproportionately affect foreign-born persons in the United States.
JAMA -- Trends in Tuberculosis--United States, 2008, May 13, 2009, 301 (18): 1869

And how much does it cost to treat MDR-TB?

Quote:
The costs of MDR TB are much greater, but depend on whether or not hospitalization is required. The drugs for MDR TB cost >$10,000, as opposed to about $1000 or less for non-MDR TB. If prolonged hospitalization is needed, costs can reach $>100,000.
HIV Guide:: How much does TB treatment cost in the US? (http://www.hopkins-hivguide.org/q_a/patient/miscellaneous_questions/how_much_does_tb_treatment_cost_in_the_us_.html?co ntentInstanceId=385043&siteId=7151 - broken link)

This was back in 2001. God only knows what it costs now.
