Zoe Saldaña did not hold back when asked about politicians making hard-line comments immigration that appear to target Latinos.
Speaking to Latina magazine, the Dominican-American actress said that she would say to those reluctant to accept the “Latinination of America:” “You can’t kill us. You can’t send us back."
"We are millions and millions here because it is our time to migrate," she said. "We are the youngest culture. We are doing what your people did. So shut up and just deal with it.”


Zoe Saldaña tells immigration critics to


Zoe: THAT kind of attitude will just make enemies out of more and more Americans. YOU earn respect: DON'T demand it because if you push us far enough, we WILL hit back and hit back HARD. Especially with the growing hate against the mostly Hispanic illegal aliens.



Look at how your Dominican Republic treats illegal aliens, do you want the US to start doing things the SAME way?

If she wasn't talking about illegals, why would she say "you can send us back"? We don't send back legal immigrants..

Hopefully she loses her position as the female Will Smith, and her attitude costs her a few million in future movie contracts.

I had to look her up and even after looking her up I have no idea who she is so I don't imagine her opinion holds a lot of sway.
