Yes, I get it. YOU stand on principle...your stand against illegal immigration is NOT based on ethnicity or race.

Yet, you make blanket statements that any Latino who voices oppopsition to the AZ law is AUTOMATICALLY ethnocentric or a racist. You really want to have your cake and eat it too. The "other" side can't possibly be acting on principle...only ethnocentrism.

You mistakenly ASSUMED I was LATINO in another thread merely because I had issues with the AZ law. Please stop painting with such a broad bush!

My blanket statements are not based on my opinion but the facts. Everyone knows why most Latinos support illegal immigration so let's stop the game playing here. They even openly admit that it is about "their people". It is racist to put one's race above the rule of law especially when there is an ulterior motive.

What principle would they be acting on as American citizens first? I don't recall assuming you were Latino. Perhaps it was more of a question or a guess than a mere assumption. The bleeding heart non-Latinos are just as bad.

The pro-illegals are just as guilty of painting with a broad brush. Anyone who opposes their amnesty agenda and wants our immigration laws enforced is viewed as a racist by them.

Did you seriously post this? That is the most childish and unintelligent "news" clip I have seen in quite some time. I guess I should say, did they seriously put this on the air?

Even though she does bring up good points... she's beating around the issue at hand here. All she is doing is throwing mud as an attempt to discredit the nature of the bill which was passed in AZ.

The only opposition to this bill seems to only take into account hypothetical cases. In any which event, it should be dealt with appropriately, even though illegal immigrants really don't have any "rights" to begin with.

1) I am always weary of anyone who claims he has all the "facts" on his side.

2) Yes, you did....it was a while ago in another thread.

3) Guess or Assumption: same thing. Webster's "Guess" is to assume, presume, or assert (a fact) without sufficient information.

4) Yes, just as guilty as YOU are at painting with a broad brush. Again, just b/c I am opposed to the AZ law does NOT make me pro-illegal, a bleeding heart, or anti-american. Stop waving the flag...

I love how you "tell" or "rat" on people for personal attacks, etc. Very weak. You'd make a good KGB agent.

Didn't your mother teach you that sticks and stones might break your bones but names will never hurt you?

Which one, LARAZA aka,the race ,,the Black Panthers, CAIR or NOI ? Are these all racist groups too ?

The whole plan from the insiders and the outsiders is to divide and conquor . They support the minority hate groups so the white nut will get stirred up and protest in defense mostly . Very few whites are in these groups, where the minority hate groups have members by the billions if you count the worldwde involvements of most of them .

Only an illegal, a employer of one or one who will gain is against this bill . If i had my way all states would follow and most would be taken 500 miles down the gulf and dropped off like Ike did along with their anchor kids . I'm sick of what they are doing to this nation, not just mexcians either but all illegals, irish, cuban , russian, muslims, african ,korean all of them .

As I recall, he apologized for it and said he didn't know he was forwarding something from a bunch of racists. So it's inconclusive as to whether he really is a racist.

Doesn't change the validity of the OP. He has ties to White Power groups. Why is he exchanging emails with KKK members in the first place.
