Mr Wayne 2012/04/30 22:12:13NO, AN ILLEGAL IS AN "ILLEGAL," I CALL THEM AS THEY ARE!





















THE WORD. Kismaes!
The term illegal aliens used today point directly at the Mexican people escaping their country to attempt to find a better life, much as our ancestors did. So yes it is now very racist, and hypocritical, in the truest sense of the word.
The question in this topic asks if it is racist to call an illegal immigrant, illegal. How anyone can turn that phrase into a racist argument is beyond me. But if you want to try and carry this back through history, claiming all but American Indians are illegal
aliens, then my question stands. How far back in history should we go? There's proof of people being here before the American Indian. And what about the ways of the world at the time? Not jus one or two countries, all of them. And what good does it do to go back that far in history when it's certain beyond doubt that some country would have taken North America from whoever was here?
The point is, that was the way of th world back then. Fortunately, we have become more civilized since those times and do more to get along today than we ever have before. But we still have our laws and our laws concerning immigrants are to protect the citizens of the land. You cannot just open borders to anyone who wants to come here and is not prepared to take care of themselves and their family without taxpayer assistance. Just as we can't be the police of the world, we can't be the welfare board of the world either.
Bring it!
Then again, if you count yourself among the slack-jawed, moon-eyed drooling throng that worshpped at the feet of an acknowledeged perjurer who offered "...that depends on what the meaning of 'is' is..." as an excuse for his duplicity, maybe English IS that difficult for you...
It is a disgrace to all people who came into this country legally to allow illegals the same rights and privileges.
