Yup, shame tactics and words.
it's like a girl calling a guy creepy, so he is shamed and goes away. same principle. call people racist and deflect from the issue
I hate when people try to play that race card. I have never been a racist and do not hate Spanish people or any other race. I do dislike illegal immigration, because of the many negative issues that are a part of it.
I wish I had a magical wand so i could turn everyone the same race, that way the attempted shame tactics used by pro-illegals would disappear.
Even that would not work: there was horrific prejudice against 'Irish' people as late as 50-60 years ago-----------never mind that they are the same ethnicity as most English/Scottish/Welsh/Castilian Spanish, etc. folks as determined by DNA testing.
People will always subdivide by ever more subtle nuances if the physical differences are factored out.
And of course: that does not absolve Mestizo Spanish speakers or any other race/ethnicity for being here illegally in the first place.

Anymore: my comeback against the 'race card' as used by putative Hispanics is I am extremely prejudiced against illegal aliens irrespective of their lineage whereas legal immigrants; Mestizo or not-----------I welcome to my nation.
I find it funny when the Pro-Illegals use the "race" card as their argument as the idea of allowing Illegal Aliens to have more rights than LEGAL U.S. citizens and LEGAL Immigrants is racist in itself as it is allowing ONE particular group to take priority over ALL others..

Then how come you called Cubans(who are not illegal immigrants) and other Hispanics trashy in that other thread? Making ugly generalizations like that feeds into the notion that you just don't have a problem with illegal immigration.

And guess what: those self centered illegal alien losers (most of whom happen to be Spanish speaking Mestizos) have all but ruined the reputation of those folks from Mexico, etc. here legally.
If the former had an ounce of class-----------they would self deport in droves.
