People wont admit it, because they dont want to think of themselves as bad people. But people find ways of feeling okay about themselves while they oppress. Most nazis felt good with themselves while doing what they were doing. It's not hard for us to try to rationalize and deny that we are looking down on a group of people because of our stereotypical image of them. Is our government's description of the term illegal/legal enough to suppress millions?
When we go to see our God, I hope he does not hold this against us. That we have kept a group of his people down. Suppressed them and not let them be equal with the rest of God's creations. And that we have felt justified and good with this.
This is a giant sin that we may have to account for someday/time.

And I know that people will say "but this against the law, their breaking the law". But are all laws good for everyone? Havent there been time in history where a governments laws have been used to oppress and even kill certain people? (example: the nazi party)

To beerman: Yes religions have been used to suppress people, but the belief in a creator does not suppress people. (It's the new popular thing to bash religion without knowing what the word means)

Alright, if we leave God out of this (I wasn't aware that there was a "God Card" that we cant pull out. I think these cards are made so people can still attack things that are not socialy acceptable to attack) Either way were still going against humanity. We save people from oppression in another country but oppress people in our own?

OK you are obviously not a Dr, and if you are it would be interesting to know a Dr. of what - your little rant here is completely ridiculous, uneducated, and has no bearing on what is actually going on
Illegal immigrants is based on ALL illegal immigrants that means anyone sneaking into this country that is not from this country - that is not a racial issue it is a nationality issue - race is White, African American, Hispanic, etc... Heritage is English, Australian, American, Mexican, etc...This is not really about either, this is about what is legal and what is not legal. It is not legal in any country to sneak in without going through the proper channels, no matter where you live.
I won't even talk about you comparing this issue to the Nazi's - that shows your ignorance by itself.
Thanks for showing me the educational level of where ever you are from -I hope it's not the US because I'm going to have to start writing the school systems

What does God have to do with this issue? Religion is a milksop for definitive issues? I don't think so. It is not about humanity, it is not about racism (it is becoming so because of the media), and it is not about saving a persecuted people. It is simply a violation of our own laws. It doesn't matter how they fled to the US to improve their lives. If they were upright people determined to improve...let them improve their own country...make it better by themselves. Wolves are howling at our very doors and you want to save a mouse. Look at the foreign investments slowly taking over our country...100% of the commercial real estate in Honolulu is owned by Japan...our mass media is controlled by...you got it...Japan!, we spend a billion dollars a day in Japan...Now, let Mexico do their own thing...we have enough other things in the fire to deal with besides the ceaseless war in Iraq....and there are no Mexicans joining the war or doing anything for the welfare of America. Be realistic! If you want to enjoy the freedoms of a country, you have to do a little more than pick fruit.

America is a diverse multi-culture of many religions with many different beliefs and many different Gods.
I don't know which God you are talking about ... but...
The United States of America is a Nation of Laws. They allow Freedom of Speech and Freedom of religion.
"Some people God uses, and some people use God"
You sound like the latter of the two!
It is not racist to obey the laws of the land and expect everyone else to also obey the laws. No one is above the law.
It is not racist to protect your own country.
The U.S. is more lenient than the Mexican government, when it comes to treatment illegal aliens.

because of the fact no longer everybody that opposes unlawful immigration and dislikes the assumption of a individual taking their activity for a miles decrease earnings is racist; some in basic terms think of every person that unjustly got here into this united states and ought to probably harm others (no longer inevitably bodily) in basic terms would not belong. some racists decide for to cover in the back of this concept because of the fact, truly, the phobia of no longer being waiting to assist your loved ones impacts some people ordinary and isn't any longer "undesirable" like racism itself.

The biggest problem with your statement is the use of the word "god". It completely invalidates anything you just said. If you want to make an intellectual point, feel free. If you want to "testify" under your religious beliefs, find a religious forum in which to do so.

I dont think this is anything like the Nazi's. So why compare that situtation to this one. We have no plans on exterminating them, we just want them out of our country and back into thiers. If they want to come over here legally then I appauld them if not then go back to where ya come from.

I don't hate them nor do I blame them even though I am anti - illegal.
I do hate the fact that our government is the main cause of all of this with their failure to enforce our laws. I also hate seeing all these keyboad commando's posting so much hatred on a Q&A board just to make a point.

I hate it when people use the race card or god card! These people only do what they have be allowed to do. I don't blame them for wanting to better their lives I just think they should follow the rules.I don't hate anyone.

The left wing liberals only use "Racism" when it suits there needs, as a way of attacking conservatives.
