the word citizen or immigrant appears in the Bill of Rights? If it doesn't maybe you should think before you act like a fascist.

On the issue of fascism, let me clarify. In its movement phase I think of it as a form of palengenetic ultranationalist populism. A drive to remake society in a manner at odds with process of liberal democracy and in lines with often racialized forms of nationalism. Clearly, when you look at anti-immigrant groups like FAIR, the California Coalition for Immigration Control, and the like, they endorse various forms of white nationalism and, in calling for the repeal of parts of the 14th Amendment, following in a long line of organizations dating back to the post-Reconstruction Ku Klux Klan. Many of the response here and to my other question also evidence racialized ways of thinking. And, I find also fascistic the calls for mass deportation -- without one of you stopping to articulate what this means in terms of due process rights and property rights embodied in the Bill of Rights. Again, what in the Bill of Rights indicates that it only applies to citizens?

For those attacking my character without addressing the substance of my question, does your resort to ad hominem attack simply indicate the weakness of your own argument?

UUHHHH........immigrants and illegal aliens are 2 different things...I think you are confused.
As far as how many times...have you even read it? Does it support breaking the law? It has nothing to do with this topic.

added: you are really trying hard to use big words and all.... but you still don't understand the difference..... AND who said there would be no "due process"? Where do you get this stuff you claim is fact?

I think you are a confused person. Very few Americans are opposed to immigrants who enter the country legally, it is the scumbags that enter the country the illegally and then sponge off of our tax dollars that most tax-paying educated Americans want to see run off. I have nothing at all against immigrants who follow the laws of the United States.

What about the rights of people who want to come here legally? Aren't THEIR rights being trampled on by your beloved illegals?

I don't think the word "rapist" is in the Bill of Rights, either - so am I a fascist for not wanting rapists running around?

Who the hell said anything about immigrants? We say those ILLEGAL MEXICANS, who just cross the border w/out any type of legal documentation. They break the law, they should all be sent back. ILLEGAL DO NOT HAVE ANY RIGHTS, ONLY CITIZENS AND IMMIGRANTS W/ PAPERS!

If you have actually read the Bill of Rights, perhaps you could enlighten us where it says that illegal immigrants have to be treated with respect. Nobody I know of is attacking legal immigrants.

I have no problem with immigrants...my sister in law is from Kiev. The illegals should all be deported and their property confiscated the same as a drug dealer's is though.

No one is attacking or violating the rights of immigrants. Legal, law abiding immigrants. The issue is ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.

Are other criminals in this country mentioned in the Bill Of Rights? I'm sure you don't think they deserve the same rights as you. Can you say hypocrite? Make no mistake they are criminals by every way shape or form a criminal takes.
