Question Details:
I Could Understand The Claims Of Racism
If US Citizens Were Demanding The Removal
Of All Hispanics / Latinos
But This Is Not The Case
There Are More Than 40 Million Hispanic - Americans In The USA
They Have Been Living And Working Among Us For Generations
They Have Taken The Necessary Steps
To Adhere To The US Immigration Laws
On The Other Hand,
There Are More Than 20 Million ILLEGAL ALIENS In The USA
They Have Come Here From Many Different Nations
Most Of Them (90 Percent) Are From Mexico And Points South
This ^ Is A FACT, It Is Not Racism
They Did NOT Take The Pains To Adhere To The Law
US Citizens Are Demanding
The Removal Of 20 Million Non-Taxpaying Non-Citizens
That Have NO RIGHT To Be In Our Nation
We Do Not Wish To Remove Hispanic-Americans
We DEMAND The Deportation Of ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS
How Can That Possibly Equate To Racism ??

You are 100% right, JD! There is nothing racist about what you have posted here and those who will say there is, are closing their eyes and ears to reality. There is absolutely no reason why this question should be deleted from this forum because it does NOT violate any of the YA community guidelines.
Keep on keeping on with the fight! And the logic. You are a true patriotic American and I support you completely in your stance regarding illegal immigration. Don't EVER back down! Thank you!

You are correct. It is not racism to insist that existing US federal and state laws be enforced against any sort of criminal, and illegally entering the United States is a crime. It is proper for criminals to be punished severely enough to deter a repetition of their crimes. If the present level of punishment isn't deterring a particular crime, then it is reasonable to increase the severity of the punishment until deterrence is achieved. Note that this may include the death penalty, and, in cases for which the national security is endangered by an invasion, executions may be carried out in a summary manner, according to the rules of war.
All of this is quite reasonable, and none of it is racism. Anyone who confuses this with racism is... well, confused. Anyone who deliberately conflates your opinion with racism is being a malicious leftist deceiver who, under the disguise of humanitarianism, is working to subvert your country.
Having said all that, however, I'd like to ask why it is you think that racism is bad. It isn't. It's part of the natural human condition, so deeply engrained in our primate brains that not even a century of misinformation and brainwashing by leftists who are expert in such things has managed to eradicate it.
To the extent that people are NOT racists, they have succumbed to a mental illness, induced by fear, shame, and guilt tactics, which can be described as a form of Stockholm syndrome.
Some other answerer is bound to say that illegal Mexicans do jobs that Americans don't want to do. But don't illegal Mexicans have about three or four times the per capita crime rate that Americans have (on the average)? And therefore wouldn't it be a better thing if homeless Americans were given those jobs at the same wages that the Mexicans accept?
Or, for that matter, US prison inmates with US citizenship, working for nothing on a chain gang, would be a better alternative than importing yet more criminals into your country, would it not?
And if absolutely no Americans can be found to do those "dirty" jobs, whatever they are, then let them go undone... for a while. Let the consequences of leaving them undone make your countrymen increasingly uncomfortable. The time will arrive, sooner or later, when the discomfort will induce some of your mates to get off their backsides and clean the streets, or whatever. The discomfort will raise the demand for labor in whatever the job is, and that demand will cause wages to rise. This is a natural market process that you ought not to circumvent by any means, and certainly not by employing foreign criminals in preference to your own citizens.
Certainly, it's true that capitalists want cheap labor. But what they are doing by employing illegals is itself illegal. Most people, if they see other people cheating and getting away with it, will begin to cheat as well. To stop the capitalists from cheating their fellow citizens, put them into prison. Make examples of a hundred of them. The rest, perhaps, will get the message.

Some of them haven't had to personally face the effects of illegal immagration as many of us have. Wait till it catches up with the higher paying jobs, and their wages are driven down. An illegal replaces their job they might finally GET IT.
For instance Construction- Used to pay great. Now illegals have taken over and driven down the wages for that occupation.
Edit: Garth G. That is where the problem is. What you said is Pure propaganda. WHAT HAPPENS IS illegals take over jobs because they will accept less pay. What happens then is the wages are driven so low LEGAL Americans can't possibly make a decent living so they have to try for another job. That is a flat out lie. Americans WOULD do these jobs if Illegals did not drive the wages down for those jobs. I have seen an entire field with whites ...why? Because they paid FAIR wages, and people needed the job!
Edit: I agree completley JenaB

I think at this point, ANY objection to illegal immigration will be deliberately 'interpreted' as being racist, as the race card seems to be the most convenient weapon-at-hand in the pro-illegal arsenal. Nonetheless, the facts, and voters' opinions are going to keep hitting these people about the head and face, and their little social engineering scheme is going to get exposed for what it is.
Be sure to thank your would-be globalists next visit to the polls...
take your state legislature to task on this, make em stand up to public account on immigration enforcement negligence, keep the letters pouring in, keep the pressure on in your community, too.
Illegal immigration is something that transcends money, it gets into basic principles etc. Moreover, it gets directly at the issue of citizenship, your rights, affects public safety, and so forth.
The law is the law, and I don't care how much money's being made, the string of people that've been basically thrown out of public office on account of lining their pockets is still growing,
and fraud and corruption have manifested themselves more than once in the issue of people obtaining citizenship and the border.
You would have thought that there would have been somebody minding the store on this one, but apparently not....

You are correct! I can guarantee that over 100 nationalities are apprehended by the Border Patrol in the El Paso Sector alone annually. This is not about getting out the "Mexicans of Latinos" as La Raza would have most believe. This is about securing our borders and securing our nation. Most of us do not want another 9/11.

In response to the others, seeing how it is a proven statistic, that "minorities" (i only say that because i live in Cali and there are more "Minorities" than white people) tend to have higher crime rates. Is it racist or stereotypical to classify one race as causing major problems in society? Just curious. Good question though. I wish i could respond, however i am interested as well.

Legal immigrants deserve respect. Illegal aliens are law breakers who do not deserve jobs, amnesty, educational subsidies, driver's licenses, and other benefits at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. Illegal aliens first should be encouraged to Go Home voluntarily and then humanely deported as the law requires. Once the public recognizes that jobs and benefits equal encouragement the public will truly press for the flow to cease. Amnesties for illegal aliens have clearly made the problem worse and should be vigorously opposed.
Unfortunately many Americans do not honestly debate immigration policy because they are woefully ignorant of the facts, especially on the negative effects of mass migration. There are upwards of 20 million illegal aliens in the U.S. today. Immigration today is almost quadruple the traditional level. Immigration has accounted for over 70% of U.S. population growth since 1970.Immigration has contributed significantly to school overcrowding, traffic congestion, the health care crisis, environmental degradation, social tension, and other negative impacts on our country. Yet pro-mass migration forces, including the politically correct media, cheap labor advocates and ethnic pandering politicians, rarely acknowledge the down-side of mass migration. School Overcrowding. How often is our health care crisis attibuted to mass migration? Rarely if ever. Because the costs of mass migration have long been ignored by the media and politicians a huge dose of honest debate on the negative impacts of mass migration is long overdue.
Myths about immigration abound. Often those favoring immigration reduction are called racist or anti-immigrant Americans need to stand above the name calling and speak the truth. For example, is America being true to its values by creating and encouraging the illegal alien underclass at the expense of our own working poor? Is America really addressing national security by promoting a virtually open border?No its not racism its reality.I refuse to allow the use of racist by pro supporters to stop me from voicing my views because I am right .Call me anything that you wish,but that doesnt change the facts of reality.They are illegal and they need to be deported back to thier own countrys.Not racism REALITY .

I'm all for border control and all but there are some points you're missing.
1. Illegals do the jobs we don't want to do
2. In a capitalist society companies will always want the to pay the lowest wage possible.
3. Most often than not, the illegals are the one willing to do a job we wont for less money. Not to mention the fact that they work hard for less money.
4. Much of unaccounted money in the US come from those 20 million illegals who don't get social security or insurance. Watch " A day without a mexican".
