No I'd call it American. We need cities and states across our country to do what Washington will not. If Washington will not take control of this illegal immigration problem, we the people of the U S A will. We need to tell the nuts in Washington, No amnesty, or nothing that evens sounds like amnesty, and Deport all illegal immigrants in this country. And I hope the ACLU, gos broke, And please take the A out of ACLU, cus the A is America, and they are for anything but America.

HERES The Racism-\nALL The RACISM You Want\n\n\nMexico's President Fox has been unrelenting in his brazen demands on the United States, starting with open borders even before he was elected. He has called for the border to be “a joining line.” His visits to the U.S. have been filled with endless requirements for Mexican citizens illegally in this country — free healthcare, taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition for illegals at state colleges and universities, guestworker programs and amnesty for all. \n\n                                                             **************************\n\nMexican American Legal Defense Fund founder Mario Obledo stated, “California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn't like it should leave. Every constitutional office in California is going to be held by Hispanics in the next 20 years.  People who don't like such demographic changes “should go back to Europe.” (Incidentally,  Senor  Obledo was also the California Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Gov. Jerry Brown.) \n\n\nObledo Is A Member Of "MEChA" And "LA RAZA"\n\n                                                 ********************\n\nThe newly "ELECTED"mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, joined the lawbreakers and proclaimed "this bill in Congress is wrong". Señor Villaraigosa said "The only thing illegal is making 11 million illegal aliens felons." Yeah, he Actually said that. People should make no mistake about it: Villaraigosa was "ELECTED" by ILLEGALs VOTING, and HIS Allegiance, along with the rest of these "ELECTED" public officials in California of Mexican ancestry is to Mexico, not California or these United States of America. Villaraigosa has spent a lifetime opposing U.S. immigration laws.\n\nVillaraigosa is A Member Of  "MEChA"  and  " LA RAZA"\n\n                                               *********************\n\nMEChA and the La Raza movement teach that Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington State make up an area known as "AZTLAN" -- a fictional ancestral homeland of the Aztecs before Europeans arrived in North America. As such, it belongs to the followers of MEChA. These are all areas America should surrender to "La Raza" once enough immigrants, legal or illegal, enter to claim a majority, as in Los Angeles. The current borders of the United States will  be extinguished.\n\n The Council of La Raza succeeded in having itself added to congressional hearings by Republican House and Senate leaders. And an anonymous senator even gave the Council of La Raza an extra $4 million in earmarked taxpayer money, supposedly for "housing reform," while La Raza continues to lobby the Senate for virtual open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens. \n\nhttp://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=13863\n\n"We have an aging white America ...

Has somthin' to do with things like - \n\nTyson Foods was indicted on 36 charges of conspiracy to recruit and transport undocumented workers from Mexico to 15 of its 57 plants across the country. \n\nTyson continues to hold U.S. government contracts worth more than $200 million a year.\n\nTyson don't want Bushies little plans, see how insignificant you and the other racists who are against immigration rights are?  Even your buddies don't listen to you people.  \n\nCorporate rule is here to stay, go away bigots, go away!

Ethnocentric racism by the GOP. They're trying to pander to the extreme right-wing of the GOP, and in the mean time ignoring the middle of the road conservatives who are Republicans. \n\nAs a Democrat, I miss the old GOP. This new breed of proto-fascists is scary. At least the old GOP respected democracy and the institutions that made America great.\n\nIt is inherenltly racist. Why don't they suggest putting a fence between the US and Canada? Don't they think illegal immigrants come from there too?\n\nRacist pigs. \n\nBe sure to get involved with local political groups and vote.

This is news to me, is there a growing anti-farm movement brewing that I don't know about? Is this an early indicator I should make myself aware of? \n\nI happen to be big fan of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as lots of other products that need farms to exist like jeans and t-shirts(cotton), coffee, beer and almonds(what could be better than almonds?). So, even though I've been a city kid all my life, hooray for farms!

Amen sista! It isn't just blacks anymore that Uncle Sam takes from. It's all of us and It's not fair!\n\nYou should be ashamed to call your a redneck Mydog! You give us rednecks a bad name with your racist bullsht! I'm a redneck but not racist, becuase being a redneck is about keeping the good country values like church and family and stuff! I even have black cousins, a mexican brother, and I'm a quarter Native American...You need to let it go man (Yes you! Just let it go man, it won't bother anymore if you just let it go.) I think its all the motes in your eyes that are making you blind to the truth. Do you think Jesus acted this way? Shame on you!

I am puzzled by that myself.  I use to dabble in Communism and went to a lot of meetings set by various parties after experiencing alot of racism against me most of my life for being white as well as being lower middle class I though Communism could end racism and poverty.  Communists have alot of hate in there hearts, they certainly have an "us vs them" mentality.  They would say race does not exist, but then say "blacks need to preserve there identity"  It seemed like the white communist were self hating and wished to god they were born another race.  There is one communist group in USA that says whites cannot be proletarian, no matter how poor or homeless they are, this is not racism?\n\nThey can be pretty violent, whenever there is a protest against racism or globalization, you see them out there attacking police and those who do not agree with them, as well as graffiti, smashing windows, setting things on fire, throwing garbage everywhere, smoking weed in public.  How many BNP people do you see doing that?

TRUE.  I am a member of the minuteman and not a racist at all.  I just want to protect the laws that govern this country.  I have to live by the laws established in this country, why should others get away with breaking them?  I'll pay an extra $.10 for a head of lettuce from california any day to eliminate the illegals.  Look how much americans still pay for gas and still buying V6 and V8 cars.  They can afford to spend a little extra.  Send the spics back.....

Mr. Chavez was opposed to illegal immigration as many of us are today.  He will never be labled a racist; but we will because it suits the political opposition and they rally thousands to their cause by saying so.  Sadly Mr. Chavez was quite a racist individual when it came to young white men, which I was when I met him.  He didn't like me and I didn't care for him, but his workers we're among the hardest working my father employed.

that is so true!!! i hate it.What are we suppose to say? even if you say dark skin or something close the say its racist.I agree with yew!

I agree, but I think you have suffered more from Americans, both Racist and non-Racist alike! It wasn't the "illegals" who stole your land and murdered your people, those good old white Christians did that!!\n\nRacist do scream a lot though and make themselves look like the fools that they are!!\n\nOh and what makes you racist one asked. It isn't the enforcement of a law that people are screaming about, it's the new law!!\n\nIf you want to enforce a law start with those who illegally hire them. Many illegals are white and went to our colleges and never went home. But you don't have to make racist remarks in doing so!\n\nWhat jerks my chain is that we stole the land from the Mexicans that we call them illegal in! No one wants to hear that!!

I am sorry finding a better paying job is so difficult for you...I am surprised you wanted to see everybodies opinion on this as I am sure you will get a lot of negative results....I love working with the hispanics I work with...they are all very nice and pleasant to be around....plus they always have really good food and are almost always willing to share....as far as their help where I work at....I don't think we would have a shift to run without them....but don't expect to many white people to say that they can relate to you...remember there are a load of redneck racists out there and well...they took/stole the land from the indians almost wiping out a whole race in the process....and then they enslaved the africans because they were to damn lazy to do their own work....sorry I wish things were different....I really do

My father farmed cotton in S. Texas in the 1950's. There wasn't the problems back then with people coming across the Rio Bravo to work. We had a family that came up from San Luis Potosi to chop or pick when needed. I worked right along side of them as a teen. Then in '54 came the big crack down and the BP came in force and using aircraft would dive on workers to get them to jump up and run. My father was a victim of one such incident just being missed by an aircraft.\n\nOne of our workers after being caught was pistol whipped by a BPman because he wanted to get his shoes. He asked several times if he could go and even if a BP would go with him. He told them they were new shoes and started to go get them. Our man was pistol whipped and thrown into the back of a truck. When they got him to Harlingen someone noticed how bad the man had been injured and took him to the hospital where he remained for several days.\n\nThen came the Bracerro Act which allowed men only to cross and work in the fields. It worked fairly well but at a huge expence to the farm owner. \n\nToday herbacides are used and planting is different so much hoeing and chopping are not needed. then machines are now used in much of the harvesting. A few of the crops such as onions, cabbage, and the like are hand picked. Much less hand labor is required today. True in the Rio Grand Valley there is enough laborers to do the work but in some areas there isn't. Because those from across the river will work for less pay the farmer or even the contractor will hire them to save money.\n\nToday you are dealing with a govenrment that is out of control and paranoid about everyone, including Americans. True there are those hell bent on drug trafficing etc over the border and that is causing a lot of the problems. Then also the US govenment thinks everyone is a terrorist and sends their gestapo after everyone.\n\nCanada welcomes the Mexican workers especially in SW Ontario where much farming goes on.\n\nAll this is a total "catch 22" no one wins and no one looses and nothing works as it should.\n\nIs there an easy answer to your question? No, not as long as governments of all countries are corrupt. I am a US citizen but the govenment here is an embarrasment to me.

It's only racist if you chosse to make it racist. \n\nUnfounded racial hatred is deplorable, but the looney left have reclassified perfectly innocent phrases as racism.

Bucky, I look back at your history of questions, and while I admire people who passionately stand up for their ideals, plenty of your question headlines themselves are downright racist.\n\nIf you want to be an outspoken proponent for increased law enforcement in the arena of illegal immigration, I've got your back. If you want to make stereotypical representations of everyone who lives south of the border, count me out.

I've noticed that here, too.  You don't have to mention anything about any particular race of human beings; just say you are against all illegal immigration in the USA, and you are jumped on and called a racist.  I do know that it is because they cannot reasonably and logically justify the presence of illegal immigrants and so they resort to name calling because of their lack of anything to back up their stance.  Usually, too, I have found that most of those who back illegal immigrants are either in a romantic relationship with an illegal, have close friends who are illegals, have family members who are illegal, sometimes are illegal themselves, or own a business in which they prosper by hiring illegals and benefiting from their slave labour by paying cheap wages without having to pay the employers share of taxes, etc. (thereby cheating legal immigrants and American citizens), or like to also pay cheap by hiring illegals to do their housework, yardwork, childcare, etc. (again, benefiting personally from illegals).

Hell yeah it is! You white racist pig! Anyone should be allowed to come to this country and do whatever, whenever they want. Since I have no logical argument to back this up, you are a racist!\n\nWOW! Breathe Lizzie! I must have to remind you because you are obviously to stupid to breathe.... OK, for Lizzie and the rest of the hopelessly stupid, THIS WAS A JOKE!!!! I am officially ashamed that you are the same species as I am....
