You are the ignorant one because you have no clue what this sort of thing is doing to communities and families. And people are right. I never said ALL mexicans are bad, or illegal. However, the ones that come come here to get into the drug trafficing and smuggling, the ones that come to get a free ride, and the ones that work under the radar of the taxpaying community need to be sent back. The borders need to be closed. For the purpose of weeding out the good from the bad. Thats really what this is all about anyway.
So get off your high horse, and give the words 'bigot' and 'racist' a break. Unless you know what you are talking about.[/QUOTE]
My father has worked with refugees all MY life. I have been involved since I was a kid. I've seen what people who are labelled 'bad seeds', 'freeriders' and other nasty terms go through and have heard their stories. The west is racist. No better than the Romans were. And you are one of them.
