To Imback-
wow. Mexicans started racism by burning the flag. UHUH SURE BUDDY! First of all, before I even heard of a Mexican burning the U.S. flag, I had seen numerous times the Mexican flag being burned by Caucasian people and I'm SURE racism isn't only between Caucasians and Mexicans.Isn't this about immigration?? What do they have to do with one another? And ughm wasn't there such a thing as slavery and segregation? Wow...wonder who started that. Racism was not started by Mexicans or illegal immigrants and you cannot completely blame it on a group of people. Since when Mexican and illegal become the epitomy of one another??
And wow, give them the death penalty for trying to do better with their lives by trying to go to a country that calls itself the land of freedom, liberty, and justice...and which I THINK was based on immigrants. But hey...maybe you're right...NOT.
To answer the question...because many people aren't really anti-illegals, they just don't want certain groups of people to be here and hide it. Ignorant, am I right?

THey come in waves. I was wondering where all the racist are. I thought they were violated out. I guess they got a new name and started there thing again. I'm a little mad they violated all the neo-nazis and KKK out. I like to know what they are thinking. Its like reading Mein Kampf before world war 2. As for the racist illegal immigrants, I have to tie myself from reporting them in. I know they were banned several times. As for going back to talking about illegal immigration, I think its too polarized to get an intelligent conversation 90% of the time. I did learn a lot about illegal immigrants and the banking system though.

Hola Mendi, I dont recal rasism being a problem till mexicans burned the American flag?The jokes come from both sides,illegal is still illegal.ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS NOT A VICTIMLESS CRIME
Apologists for illegal immigration like to paint it as a victimless crime. But in fact, illegal immigration causes substantial harm to American citizens and legal immigrants, particularly those in the most vulnerable sectors of our population--the poor, minorities, and children.
Illegal immigration causes an enormous drain on public funds. The seminal study of the costs of immigration by the National Academy of Sciences found that the taxes paid by immigrants do not cover the cost of services received by them. We cannot provide high quality education, health care, and retirement security for our own people if we continue to bring in endless numbers of poor, unskilled immigrants.
Additionally, job competition by waves of illegal immigrants willing to work at substandard wages and working conditions depresses the wages of American workers, hitting hardest at minority workers and those without high school degrees. Ã
Illegal immigration also contributes to the dramatic population growth overwhelming communities across America--crowding school classrooms, consuming already limited affordable housing, and straining precious natural resources like water, energy, and forestland.

I think pure whites defecation is pretty weak. When whites are confronted about how europeans were assisted by the U.S. when they came in boats poor, starving, penniless, and hopeless the whites become sheepish, and flustered. I think we all need to read our U.S. history. Today, we have many groups of people who would rather keep their own culture alive and well than assimilate to the American culture, I think that's the only difference. Not to mention all the other benefits that weren't available back them.

Probably, I think people are just blowing off steam from a long hard week. Things get a little too serious sometimes and we need to be goofy. This probably isn't the right forum for it but it is what it is.

Laughter is good for the soul. It doesn't hurt to lighten up now and then. This category gets pretty heavy sometimes.
