You're not!! Because it's such a strong word people use it for an excuse for their illegal behavior.

You're not a racist unless you start being like some people on the immigration forum. When you get to th point where you're saying "those damn Mexicans" or something, then you're a racist. If your issues are more with following the laws rather than the race issue, then it's alright.

You are a racist because there is no logical reason why you are wrong. It’s a term that can be thrown out as a red-herring so that rather than debating the topic-at-hand we can debate whether you are a racist or not.
Not all Hispanics are illegal but almost all illegals are Hispanic.

If you are racist, you are racist. That has nothing to do with being against illegal immigration.
"Illegal" is not a race.

Anti illegal is not racist nor is pro illegal racist. Racist is a term that is loosely thrown around now-a-days.

Because "racist" is becoming a term meaning nothing other than "you hold an opinion I dislike, and there's some vague connection with race here". Your best bet is to stop expecting these things to make any sense at all.

We are all racists. It's very hard not to be. Everyone is just being politically correct.
Being against illegal aliens is not being against any race, it being for America.

Stick around and hang on to your seat, new friend. You ain't seen nothing yet. Don't let them get to you. Uphold the law and your beliefs. You'll be alright, we got your back. You're not a racist, your an American defending your freedom. You'll get called a racist every chance they get. Pathetic but true.

You are not a racist just because you are anti illegal. You are like thousands of us who want them to be legal. If we break the law we pay the price, when they break it , it is overlooked. And by bieng illegal they are breaking the law.
