If you are against illegal aliens, like myself, you are called a racist.
Definition:
Racism is a belief system or doctrine which states that inherent biological differences between human races determine cultural or individual achievement — with a corollary that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others
So, illegal alien must be a race or country. I'd like to know where it is! Especially in light of the fact that a multitude of races make up the collective group known as illegal aliens. (whites, blacks, asians, middle eastern etc)
I'm a loss as to how expecting someone, from amywhere, to follow the laws of a country is somehow racist. Following that logic, I must be a racist if I expect people not to shop lift or steal cars or murder and it turns out that a higher percentage of one race is represented in arrest figures. Same logic.
If anything, accusing someone of being a racist, with no facts or evidence, is actually racist on the accusers part!

for the record, I know what an illegal alien is. My point is that I say illegal alien and somehow that turns into anti mexican. In order to be a RACIST you must be against a race. Illegal alien is a legal status and you can't be racist against a legal status.
I'm just tired of people who have no explanation for their actions claiming racism. I could care less if you are irish, russian, asian, mexican, or swahilli. If you are here without the legal permission of the US Government....you are illegal and should be sent back to Europe, Asia, or, if the situation calls for it Mexico.

It's not, just a weak defense by the pro-criminals.

There is no such thing as race-unless you are counting other groups like monkeys or turtles or something. All people fall under the race of "Human". Sorry to disappoint you.
People come in ethnicities, and even that is confusing when you go back many generations.
Your comment/question doesn't make sense.
"So, illegal alien must be a race or country" Eh?
"If anything, accusing someone of being a racist, with no facts or evidence, is actually racist on the accusers part!"
What does that have to do with immigration? Illegal immigrants are any persons that are not illegal.
Some areas have problems with illegal immigrants from different countries, Washington State with illegals from Asian countries, Arizona State with many immigrants from Mexico (1/2 of the prisoners in Arizona are illegal aliens from Mexico), New Mexico has a major problem with illegal immigrants from Latin American countries and identity theft.

Well, the term doesn't have anything to do with racism. An illegal alien is someone who is in a country with no legal right to be there. If you were in Mexico without a passport, you would be an illegal alien. Same thing with any other country you went to. With out a passport and VISA, you are illegal. And you will be treated a lot worse than illegals in this country are.
So no dear, an illegal alien is not a race. And people really don't hate them, but they do hate the fact that people come into this country without becoming a citizen and start making demands. They demand social security, they demand jobs, they demand rights. So heres the thing... if they want something, let them become citizens. Let them become legal residents and then we can talk about civil rights.
I do not hate anyone, but I don't like someone coming into this country making demands trying to get things that Americans can't get. I do not believe that there is any biological difference between my or anyone else. I do not believe that my race (white) is superior to any other, nor do I believe that my race should be allowed to rule anyone.
Welcome to America.. now please become a citizen and we will welcome you with open arms.

Simply put and illegal alien is anybody that has entered the country illegally. You are crossing race and where is a person is from with being in a country illegally. Being a racist means that you do not like a person just because they are of a certain race. Not liking somebody because they are here illegally is a totally different thing.

Illegal aliens don't come with a set color of skin they can even be white.
Proud To Be White
Someone finally said it. How many are actually paying attention to this?
There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans,
Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc. And then there are just Americans.
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 Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.
If we had WET (White Entertainment Television). We'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day. You would call us racists.
If we had the White History Month. We'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to "advance" OUR lives. We'd be racists.
We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce,
and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that?
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships.
You know we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US, yet if there
were "White colleges". THAT would be a racist college.
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 racists.
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.
You rob us, car jack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer
shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from
the law and posing a threat to society. You call him a racist.
I am proud. But, you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites
can be racists?

I agree. Immigrants to this country should come in legally. You are not a "racist" for having a problem with ILLEGAL ALIENS. And 'aliens' should respect our national language: English. If I moved to France, the French people would be angry at me if I didn't try speaking French!
I get unpleasant looks from people of other races, and I feel like it's becuz I'm white, even tho I smile and say hello nicely. They're here, and they're free, and IF THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH AMERICANS THEY SHOULD GET OUT!
I get mad becuz I AM NOT A RACIST against "black" people or "Mexican" people, yet I feel they assume I am and they want to treat me like crap!

The problem is the vast majority (though not all) of illegal aliens are of Mexican origin. Twisting that fact, it's asserted that if you're anti-illegal, you are therefore anti-Mexican.
Funny, there's an awful lot of legal Mexican immigrants who resent the illegals. Does that make them self-racists?

I used to be illigal alien before the 1986 amnesty, now I'm a lawfull permanent resident, therefore illigal alien it is a status and no a race. do not blame this country because some people are racist, you can find racist people in any country in the world, our good U.S. constitution prohibits discrimination of any kind.

In my Definition:
There are two groups of people in the US, those whose parents are born here, or came here legally, they are called citizens and their children are citizens. And those whose parents broke into my country under the cover of darkness and refuse to go home, while collapsing my social safety net, close my emergency rooms (90 total for CA including the hospital I work at which is also in the process of being sold, due to uncovered non-insurable peoples, or Illegal’s) flood my schools, crowd the inner cities, and bring drug resistant disease to kill us, they are illegal aliens and their children who happen to pop out on our soil, they too are illegal aliens.

You got it all wrong. Illigal alliens are people who enter a country (USA) illigally meaning without documentation. USA has a limit of how many immigrants may enter the country legally when the number exceeds the limit it can hurt the economy thus it is illigal. Illigal immigrants could be from any country but most come from Latin America. If one is agains illigal aliens does not mean they are agains the specific group of poeple, instead they don't want any people entering their country illigally.

My "faith" tells me to love the Lord, my God, with all my coronary heart, soul and strategies, and my neighbor as myself. there is not something interior the Bible that i be responsive to of that could ward off advent on different planets, considering all the different planets are additionally component to advent. God is Sovereign and can do as He pleases. C.S. Lewis addresses this very question particularly properly in his essay, "faith and Rocketry" contained interior the series entitled, "the international's final night and different Essays." in this, he says, "Christians and their combatants many times anticipate that some new discovery will the two turn concerns of religion into concerns of wisdom otherwise decrease them to patent absurdities. even even though it has never got here approximately." What if, merely announcing, what if a guy includes me from yet another city and broadcasts there is no God? Shall i've got faith him merely simply by fact he's not from my city? What if, merely announcing, what if an alien being arrives and broadcasts to us all, "there's a God and the Christians in the international have had it appropriate all alongside!" could this variety of revelation upset the deeply ingrained faith of the atheist?
