At this point in the illegal immigration debate, racist means someone who wants the laws enforced. So please call me racist. Do you have any other arguments pro-illegals?

Yes thank you for also pointing this out. I already told them that racist has lost all it's meaning since they just threw it at every one like that. Now why should we even care who is racist?

I am definately not pro-illegal but racist does not nor has it ever meant wanting the laws enforced. The term racist, when used to describe someone who supports racism, has been a pejorative term since at least the 1940s, and the identification of a group or person as racist is nearly always controversial.

Well, especially in this forum that word has lost all meaning. It's thrown around and over used. I don't give a damn who calls me a racist. I just want illegal freeloading sh it out of my country.

Yes I am white. But I worked where I was the minority. I was the outcast. I was told by my black coworkers that she was going to go to the boss and tell something on me to get me into trouble. Daily for 40 years I heard, "slavery time is over with, its pay back time. I was the one who got into trouble if I did not do my work and whatever the black person did not chose to do and left for me. I can tell you for sure, I was the person mistreated. There are plenty black racist out there and they do everything they can to hurt white people.

Racist is judging a group of people by the few you have met or heard about. I don't support the illegality of immigration, but I recognize that people from the US typically don't like getting their hands dirty. We have had slave classes since 1607. First African-Americans, then Irish, then Asian, and now the illegal Mexicans. I actually talked to a supervisor out at Swift and Co, after the raid, he told me that he is STILL not getting applicants from US citizens. The jobs are there, why aren't we going for them? Does the thought of all that back-breaking hard work still scare the whoops out of our gringo skins?
Maybe we are the problem for creating a need for illegal immigrants. We demand the products, but only want cushy jobs.

The meaning for that word has in fact dissappeared off the chart due to overuse by people who have no idea what it means ! It is now a common name for discontents that like to whine

Racist means you are persecuted for wanting clean cities, crime free shcols and communities. We can't even tell it like it is without being called racist.

No, that is not racism. You become racist once you single out a group, like for example, Mexicans.

Not unless you have a problem with other races besides inforcing the immagration laws.
