It is very naive to pretend that the hispanic community is a block that acts as one, that is the stereotypical anglo wishful thinking mentality, thanks god most anglos are educated or progressive. Remeber it is not all white or all black, we keep trying to profile people without success...
Yep.
Many of us DONT want illegal aliens here an will call La Migra.

So who is enabing these illegals when they arrive? Who is facilitating them?
Do you mean to say they simply arrive here in the middle of the nite, go apartment hunting, get a job and settle in just like that?
Who is being naive? At the very least the hispanic community as a whole is tolerant of the illegals. They as whole dont like to painted with the broad brush and I dont blame them. But at the same time you cant have it both ways.
Im not illegal, its my cousins husband who is illegal. I dont support illegal immigration but demand an amnesty. Which is it?
I dont support illegal immigration but favor the dream act.
I dont support illegal immigration but some of my friends are illegals.
cant have it both ways.
I am white and live in the country. I dont like to be stereotyped as a redneck.
I also dont have 4 junk cars parked in my yard 8 dogs tied to trees and beer cans littering my yard.
Now if I had the above then i would deserve to be stereotyped for acting and living like a redneck.
If I am hispanic and I don't like being stereo typed as an illegal then I wouldnt be putting up with illegals, wouldnt be demanding special rights for illegals, wouldnt be making excuses for illegals and wouldnt be facilitating illegals. In short I would be very vocal about illegals.
Yes their are illegals from just about every country and every race here.
The difference is we don't see thousands of russians marching in protest because illegals are being deported.
We dont see thousands of asians marching because illegals are being held accountable.
Who do we see doing these things????
lol, so your stereotyping is ok if a whole bunch of Hispanics are doing it? MAKES SENSE.
Your first point holds that you don't want to be a redneck, so you avoid doing things that rednecks do. But that's not what we're talking about. What we're talking about is people who argue for the increased rights of illegals being stereotyped as illegal immigrants themselves. And this is your defense of it. Horrible.

Exactly! There is no denying that it is mostly the Hispanic community who is advocating for these illegal aliens because most of them are ethnically like themselves. Yet we are the racist ones?
Why they make this an anglo racism issue is beyond me. There are several posters in this forum alone that are black and even Hispanic and they also object to this illegal invasion from mostly south of our border.
There were only 10-11 million Hispanic Americans who voted in the last election. I doubt with the coming election that it would be more than a couple million more than that. There are 260 million non-Hispanics in this country. Apparently someone has failed math in asserting that the Hispanic vote will sway any election.
Have you checked the margin on presidential elections??, usually a couple of million, even with minimal hispanic participation in 2012, lets say 12 to 15 million, that would be way more than enough to sway the vote, and if you take the almost as large african american ethnic population of the usa, which are almost monolitically democarat, it would be fair to say that the radical right is in trouble .....

If Obama DONT sign amnesty for ILLEGAL aliens; the amnesty people will cry cause the Dems dont care
Exactly! Why are Hispanic-Americans defending illegal aliens anyway?
Why is ANYBODY defending illegal aliens? Just by the use of the term, they aren't supposed to be here in the first place. I wonder how many other countries in the world would tolerate a situation like this for as long as the United States has. (Most countries don't even consider illegals born within their borders as citizens, for that matter).

In that case, you must be very naive, because that is precisely what you’ve assumed in post after post. But, I agree, Hispanics are not a monolith. You have your opinion of illegal immigration, and there are many Hispanics who disagree. Although you had to contradict yourself in the process, I’m glad you finally admit you do NOT speak for all Hispanics.

It is true that most black Americans vote Democrat. But, every black person I know is totally disgusted with illegal immigration. Not to mention, many black men have been displaced by Hispanic illegal aliens, and the unemployment rate is staggering. Sorry, but there is very little support for illegal aliens. Don’t be fooled by opportunists like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. They do NOT speak for most black Americans. In fact, I know black people who consider illegal immigration a greater threat than Jim Crow, and will not vote for Obama in 2012 due to his pandering. They will simply stay home. So, you would be wise not to count your chickens.
