Ive read some of your posts, and frankly most of them feel as if you're against your own countrymen.

I find it hard to believe that people are so in favor of being "Politically Correct".
PC is nothing but censorship that is phrased in a nice way.Cut the niceties and get down to the nitty-gritty so a problem can be fixed faster.
I see you are from Carolina, so not really by a border town. When I lived in Oregon, I was totally against them being there and was not very receptive of them.
When we moved to Arizona and a border town, I saw what the life is for these people. I do know a lot about what has happened to many of them when they crossed from Mexico to the US. I will not be talking about it on this forum period.
No, I'm not against my countrymen, but I have noticed that the countrymen if this forum is any example, think they are better than anyone, take delight in making someone elses life, for those I have no use for.
The pathetic thing is, that you blame all of the problems on the Illegals and not the government, which I feel is totally to blame.
I do not blame the illegals. They have not impacted my life at all,
the economy and the huge amounts of money we are spending on this god forsaken war is the biggest problem.
When you make hateful remarks against the illegals you just make them look better, and the Americans look worse than the illegals.

And my attitude against those lawbreakers (illegal immigrants) has hardened since living here in Arizona-----------especially when those insolent losers had their ill advised illegal immigrants' 'rights' marches back in May 2006.

Your arguement with us is personal. You being pro-Illegal, in favor of them breaking our laws, makes you no different than them.
Your not even worth arguing with.
