you shouldn't have to justify yourself to anyone. the internet brings about keyboard "tough guys" who become something really ugly when given the opportunity to speak anonymously. Don't give them a 2nd thought.
I've said over & over again I am not against immigration, I don't care what color people are or what they look like. All I ask is for them to respect the community. These illegals do not.---John's comment

That being said, depression does not excuse the obvious (or maybe not so obvious) racism towards hispanics.
Just to be sure I read "Johninwestbury's" post again and his comment above. I see nothing racial in wanting to stop the flow of illegal invaders into this country and watching his community deteriorate because of it. It just so happens that most of those that are invading this country are Hispanic because of a porous southern border that can be easily crossed and a government that does nothing about it. If Ireland, England or any other European country were located there and their population's consisted of poorly educated, poorly skilled impoverished people looking for a handout, stealing jobs, demanding rights and representation that they have not earned, who are invading this country. I'm sure he would be opposed to that just as well. Fortunately our border there is the Atlantic Ocean you can fly but you just can't walk or swim across it . And the problem there are people overstaying their visa's and disappearing into our society which is just as offensive. There are no rational reasons for importing tens of millions of the world's indigent population into our country without eventually destroying the quality of life for all American citizens. None! Out here in the Southwest many of our border patrol agents are Hispanic. Many of our Hispanic citizens who have immigrated here legally resent those who have chosen to invade our country while they followed the law and assimilated into our nation and culture. They do not like to be associated with these invaders because they are Hispanic. Would you?

Great post, but trying to explain that to long isle is like talking to a wall. As soon as you do something like present 'logic' or 'facts' a liberal falls back on the only thing they can: crying 'racism'.

How are you any better for hating on liberals? Maybe you should click off Fox TV and go talk to a few liberals and ask their opinions. You may be shocked to learn they're not captive in a hive-mind and capable of independent thought. You may be doubly shocked to learn that one liberal around here (me) agrees with the OP.

Ok I will concede not all liberals feel that way, but there is little doubt that the current leftist administrations policy is pretty much open borders, non enforcement, and amnesty, something the majority of democrats support.

Hahahaha....please provide one quote where I called anyone a racist. You and a couple of your buddies that love to chime in on these threads are the only ones who bring up the term.

Thank You! What those who are in favor of open borders and unchecked illegal immigration do not understand is that it will eventually have adverse affects on their lives too. I don't see how it can't. Someone, somehow, someway will have to pay for the illegal invaders food, clothing, housing, medical needs, and education. That burden will fall disproportionately on the middle class who are already struggling to make ends meet. Pushing them so far down the economic ladder that they too will require some sort of government assistance. This is the same middle class that Democrats supposedly care so much about. All they see in these illegal invaders is a method to gain absolute power and control. People that are dependent on government tend to vote Democratic. Being forever dependent on government does not lift anyone up out of poverty it only makes them a slave to government and they are condemned to a life of poverty and despair. Just look around in every major city in the United States where significant populations of people are dependent on public assistance. Which by the way are predominantly run by Democrats. There are already millions of American citizens living in abject poverty with no way out of it. Do we really need tens of millions more?
