It is the internet forum and that is why you need to be able to handle someone calling you out on that stuff.
Do you live in AZ?

Especailly since she assumes you are white - silly assumption isn't it?

But common - some people think that only white Americans are against unlimited illegal immigration - they never consider that blacks or hispanics believe that a legal orderly process for immigration is needed and that certain "races" or people of certain countries don't have unlimited rights to come here and in unlimited numbers.

Because many illegals are from Mexico and Central America, we must simply consider their so-called "race" and allow them to break our laws and not only break the laws but provide them welfare handouts, no questions asked.

Again, straightforward question, do you live in AZ? If not, you can't possibly know of what I refer to.

And, for the record, I wanted to marry an Hispanic. And, yes, I am caucasian. And unless you live in AZ, you just don't get it and I'll refer you back to your post #4.

Get over your sensitivity. This IS an internet forum. And don't you dare tell me what to do or not do. It's not your place.
So you are saying that people from Mexico because they are Mexican are not required to abide by the immigration laws of this country or any other law that inconveniences them such as liability insurance laws?

If the only people in this world that were having kids were the ones that felt like they could financially have them, they'd probably be no children born.

The almighty dollar takes precedence once again. Imagine that.

You're so all over the place that you think you asked this person a question that you actually asked me.

Get over yourself, seriously. No one has to live in Arizona right now or ever before to know what they are talking about. You call it "Home of SB 1070," is that your little way of coining your state to give you some sort of credentials to talk about this?

So marry a hispanic. Being caucasian doesn't mean you cannot.

If he's a US citizen - and surprise surprise, US citizens can be hispanic - there is no problem at all (unless he's married already or something).

If he's not a US citizen then you can sponsor him to come here legally. Or love doesn't just have to happen in the USA, you can move to his country. No problem. Marry him - hispanic US citizen, or hispanic other country-citizen. Who cares?

Just curious if anyone in this thread knows what 'usually' means?

He is a US citizen and very much against "undocumented workers," as we call them here (and to be PC).

Again, this thread is not about race. It's about why people have children when they can't afford them.

What applies to all races? Are you saying that everyone from every country has an unlimited right to come here and that immigration laws apply to no one? That ALL the people of Haiti, ALL the people of Nigeria, ALL the people of China - and so on can simply pack up and come here whenever they please? No limitations at all on immigration?
