Harrier doesn't know why they made those tweets, but he can surmise that they just weren't very well informed and didn't bother to do basic research before making their comments, which would tend to peg them as liberals.
Ha! Nice try.
I think we all know that the uninformed twits tweeting racist **** - were anything but liberal. The may have come directly from stormfront - you know, that bastion of liberal well wishes.
Because we have so many illegals here that are welcomed by our government that every Hispanic person is seen as a "foreigner".
If we had control of our borders we wouldn't have 20 million here and if our government actually upheld the law people wouldn't be suspect of every Hispanic person.
We did this to ourselves.
So, conservative you is saying that these people couldn't have bothered to take the initiative and gone out to get to know some Hispanic Americans on their own?
If you can't do that in this day and age, you choose to be a racist. It's really that simple.
I highly doubt that any of the same posters would be upset with latinos like Cristina Aguilera or Linda Ronstadt or even Selena Gomez or Julio Iglesias singing the anthem.
It's more the promotion of Latin America and it's culture that is resented. Not race at all.
Not that Pr's rep America to the fullest. They do it when it's convenient. They love to exhibit their pride...and WANT independence but not at the expense of giving up the sweet benefits that come with being a commonwealth.
Marc Antony is a commonwealth...or are you going off on yet another "them people aren't...." rant. Oh My Lord, please think Mark is a commonwealth.

Uh; "Hispanic" ain't a race. Hell; it's not real safe for dark skin people like LatAm Hispanics in Hispanic Spain tho La Raza tries to claim the white Spaniards.
MOST "Hispanics" in the US are at least quarter Indian like Aztec, Mayan, Mexican Apache and so on.
Welcome to 2013: prejudice is getting worse because of the illegal alien problem and possible "amnesty". Anthony sees a "Hispanic" in the mirror and lives up or down to that culture IMHO and other people pick up on it.
Who exactly is that onus on? Prejudice predates illegal aliens, "Amnesty" or Marc Anthony.

Tell me, how do you tell the difference between a Latina/o who was born here or is legal, and one who is here illegally? How do you separate the two and then decide how you are going to treat each one?
I can't and I never said that I could. Where are you going with this? If I knew a person was here illegally they certainly wouldn't warrant my respect, however.
