I have seen few, if any, person "bashing Hispanics" on this thread -

The fact that one opposes Illegal Immigration does not equate to "bashing Hispanics"

I am anti illegal immigration-------regardless of race/ethnicity.

Better a Mexican Mayan husband and wife coming here legally vs. a Nordic White Swede who did not come here legally.

Trust me: I do on an 'as needed' basis.
He called out iBarrio out of nowhere. Instead of contributing to the discussion, he decided to come in and make an unrelated accusation.
I didn't report, but instead tried to appeal to him myself. I told him we don't need random accusations and arguments like that.

I'm trying to intimidate? That was a problem you guys had, and I reported it.
I reported the bullying that was going on on this forum by some of you, and Yac responded appropriately, which I appreciate.

So maybe we should stick to the subject matter?

That is simply not true. I have seen very few posters actually bashing Hispanics or Latinos. Most oppose illegal aliens of any race/ethnicity. The truth is, the vast majority of illegal aliens in this country are Mexican or from some so-called Hispanic nation. There are also Hispanic members of this forum who are anti-illegal, as well as, many other members with Hispanic spouses, children, or relatives.

Maybe it's a few posters doing it repeatedly. Most of the time, people are unwilling to stand up against those on "their side" and say something about it. Many go along with it.
