Why is it that when one of us is against illegal immigration, we are often called racists? There are illegal aliens in the U.S.A. from all countries. There are illegal aliens here from all races and ethnicities...including white. I do not want a single illegal alien in my country. Yes, this includes the white ones, the black ones the Mexican ones the German ones etc.
If a person of any race color or ethnicity migrates here legaly, I welcome them with open arms.
I merely do not like law breakers.
So..please explain how this is racist....are you trying to say that all illegal aliens belong to only one race? My god! What a racist thing to imply!

1. It is imperative that all aliens to the USA go through the Immigration and Naturalization Services.
2. Why? Illegals brings in illnesses from their countries. One form of TB a particular country (will not name, so that anyone take offense. The country is an arbitrary factor; the disease is not).
3. Aliens need to file papers, like everyone else in line. They need to be acclimated to the laws of the US.
4. Illegals that put up portable food stands are not going through the FDA. Example: Ice cream sold to children, was shut down. The ice was tested and found to contain soap and skin scum along with hair. Bathtub ice cream. Also, E. coli, that was found in cheese made in old toilets. Won't name the illegals who did it. The fact is: they cause serious health risks because they don't follow laws.
5. Illegals upset the economy of the country. I don't think I need to explain this one. It's self evident.
6. Illegals do not speak the language, do not have marketable skills, and may commit crimes to survive.
7. The rules are there so everyone has a fair shot the legal way. Who is a bad sport that they want an unfair advantage over people who have waited years? Now there's a question.
Good luck and warm regards. I agree with you wholeheartedly.

I welcome any Legal Immigrant to this country. I hate and am against illegal immigration..i am racist against the illegal Mexicans who think that they can change America and what it stands for..and how they treat the citizens of the USA..I'm not racist against the illegals who are German Irish or any other race due to the fact that they don't stand in the streets of America screaming i want rights they don't want attention brought on them. they want to stay in hiding..but these illegal Mexicans are rude and obnoxious..they disrespect Americans and they need to leave

Bravo !! Well said!!
And yes I know that "illegal alien" is not a race, an illegal alien can be any race. For some people on here they just want to put words in your mouth...see above.
It's not racist to want your gov. to uphold/ enforce the immigration laws that already exist, why some on here believe that it's racist is beyond me.
And to be honest just proves to me that's all they got as a come back ...."The (big bad) Race Card".

The vast majority of illegal aliens are from Mexico and other latino/hispanic origins. So, naturally, instead of dealing with the issue, people jump to calling each other racist. On the flip side, there are also those who ARE racist on this topic.

Not being racist - please read...
White Pride...
You call me "Cracker", "Honkey", "Whitey" and you think it's OK.
But when I call you Kike, Towelhead, WOP, Sand-******, Camel Jockey, ****, ****** or Chink you call me a racist.
You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?
You have the United ***** College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.
If we had WET(white entertainment television) ...we'd be racist.
If we had a White Pride Day... you would call us racist.
If we had white history month... we'd be racist.
If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives... we'd be racist.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships...you know we'd be racist.
In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights...you would call us racist.
Did you know that some high school students decided to make a club for only the white students because the other ethnicities had them... they all got sent to court for being racist but the african-american, latino, and asia clubs were not even questioned.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.
I am white.
I am proud.
But, you call me a racist.
Why is it that only whites can be racists?

I completely agree.
I believe the problem stems from people assuming all illegal aliens are from Mexico. So, when we say we don't want illegal aliens here, they think Mexicans only, so they think it's racist.

I agree with you but, unfortunately, your question will probably get deleted and you may receive a violation from Yahoo! Answers because you said 'illegal alien.' Apparently that word (alien) is not allowed here.

I agree; legal immigration is OK - they can work and pay taxes like the rest of us, but the illegals need to go home and clean up their own country if they aren't satisfied there

It is racist to tell people where they are allowed to live and work based on where they come from. Therefore you are defending a racist law.
We all live on the same planet. What gives you the right to tell people what part of the planet they can live.
Racism as defined in the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and adopted in 1966:
...any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, color, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life..

They have been trying this bullshit ploy for awhile now. Evertime someone is against illegal immigration they try to pull the race card and say that person is a racist.
