Every article that is presented is screened to make sure the author is Hispanic, and if it is a common response is, "What do you expect" Why does that person's surname or ethnicity matter? As if being Hispanic means you don't have any credibility.

Blacks too.
Not just Hispanics.

I think that this forum allows people to vent their wacky and racist views w/o the threat of having their views (and possible noses) rearranged.
Which IS freedom of speech.

I get nasty comments because I am Latino. It is racism plain and simple.

Oh please! Is it not possible that people can get nasty responses because they are nasty to begin with? That seems pretty cut and dry to me, or as you put it, plain and simple. I'm frankly tired of some people blaming everything wrong with their lives on some silly notion that it is based solely on others' perception of them because of their race.

Most discussions about immigration are bound to attract the Ku Klux Klan faction, I see this in virtually every blog, even newspaper blogs.
