No it is about the money and the race. The white Europeans are charged less than the Hispanics to get here and go through less. But they still do not get much for their dollars they work hard for but some bogus student visa that immigration approves without making sure they have finished the application process that is required by immigration to do prior to approving the visas. Immigration does not really care who is approved as long as they get money and they have no problems in the US if they could get away with giving it to Hispanics they would because they would make more money but no one questions about the white people who are here on student visas at all because most of them speak English very good because it is taught in all foreign schools of people who finish college such that they can come here for more education. It is all about the money. The who can get visas is based upon some artificial group of numbers that were put together to keep the races in the same percentages at the time it was put in effect while ignoring the fact a very large part of the population were Native American Indians and black slaves who were not considered at that time to be humans I guess. If they were counted in then it would be based also upon those percentages such that anyone who could show they were Natives of the Americas would be more eligible for visas along with Africans.

NO a thousand times NO. Americans are of any race. They have a unified culture, will defend each other if attacked. Help each other in disasters. Raise the American flag on holidays. Obey the law. ETC. The race issue is mostly brought up by La Raza and it's sympathizers who want to pit brown people against white people and use their numbers to force their own way on us. They are not "we the people" and people need to stop falling for their racist tactics.

Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration. Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely. Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.
Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he, too, is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part). If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.
It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for, well, you know.
And what a deal it is for me!! I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being an
anti-housebreaker. Oh yeah, I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.
Why can't people see how ridiculous this is? Only in America!

No. It just seems that way because 85 pecent of illegals are hispanics. And illegal immagrants now out number legal immagrants 3 to 1. If we got rid of some of the illegals then it would be easier to obtain a visa for people trying to do things the RIGHT way.

We call things racism just to get attention. We reduce complicated problems to racism, not because it is racism, but because it works." - Alfredo Gutierrez, political consultant, as quoted by Richard de Uriarte, The Phoenix Gazette, March 14, 1992 (quoted in The ProEnglish Advocate, 1st quarter, 2002)

Nope, I don't care if they're purple. What bugs me is their coming here for welfare, housing, health care and educations paid for by you and me.
Then their demanding amnesty, pulling down our flag from a Federal Building (Maywood, CA) and replacing it with the mexican flag. Their gangs, perverts, drug runners and criminals I have no use for either.
Finally their BS about having a RE-CONQUISTA of the border states and turning it into their Fantasy Land of Aztlan a sort of super-ghetto I guess.
The sooner they try, the sooner all this foolishness will be finished.

This question is too complicated for a short post, but a quickie?..here it is..
Honestly, it depends on who we're talking about. There are people against illegal immigration for 'some' legitimate reasons and not filled with anger, fear or resentment. Then there are the ignorants who are just plain dumbutts. (ie:peepeeboy- he knows who he is)

yes, its about race, when people came from Europe nobody cares, but the problem now its that there are immigrants from Americas and they are brown.

How is the immigration issue about race when I am Hispanic, immigrated from Mexico and I am against illegal immigration? That's just an excuse that pro-amnesty peeps use when they ran out of "ammo"

It's NOT a race issue. It's about fairness and the rule of law.
