Illegals come from all races and nationalities we oppose ALL of them? A person of ANY race who immigrates here LEGALLY is welcome!!

Ever hear of a term called "deflection"?
It's when you are guilty of some wrongdoing yourself,
but you want to take the heat away from you so you
wrongfully accuse someone of an offense to throw them
off balance.
This is what happens when people play the race card.
Unfortunately, Illegal meaning against the law, is not a racial issue. It's a PATRIOTIC one. American CITIZENS FIRST.

Okay, so if Congress and the President change the law tomorrow removing all barriers to immigration, you'd support it, right? Are you sure your only problem with illegal immigration is that it's against the law? Because the government could very easily change the law. You'd have to come up with a different argument, then. Being anti-immigration or anti-illegal immigration isn't intrinsically racist. Of course not. That's inflammatory and silly. You shouldn't take that criticism seriously. However, I think some people use the "law" as a guise to mask their real feelings on the matter. In a few cases, I know racism plays a part. If not racism, then xenophobia and nativism. Neither is a good trait for a human being to have. Without knowing your real reasons, I couldn't possibly say why you're so opposed to illegal immigration. I do know that the law is irrelevant since the law isn't a static force. The law should reflect what's right and wrong. So, when you reveal why you think the law is right, rather than resorting to supporting the law for the law's sake, then I'll be able to render a decision. As for me, I disagree with the laws on the books. I disagree with a lot of laws on the books. And for those laws that I do like, I don't try to justify their existence by saying that they exist. That's circular reasoning.

The only illegal immigrants I hear people talk about are the people here from Mexico.

When you can't argue the facts you call people names. Combine that with the racist nature of mexicans and you get these kind of bigoted attacks.
