You go on the street and you see a brown person in work clothes.
First thought is "illegal"

You see a French person on the street...oh wait. You can't really identify a French...or German...or Irish guy on the street. Oh...and chances are they speak english.

Throughout our history, it is those who looked different that generated the most butthurting among the majority.

There were no laws against Irish or Italian immigrants but there damn sure laws against asian and african countries.

Its natural. If they look different then they are bad.
It is subliminal.


In other words you little example against the french is not applicable.
There wouldn't be as much deep seated hate running around if their wasn't brown involved.

As Americans, we love our boogeymen. It keeps us occupied and allows us to produce simplistic explanations for all our problems.
We prefer our boogeyman to not look anything like us.

As citizens that is their right. For the anchor babies of illegals, as citizens, it will be their right too. That doesn't make it the right of the illegals themselves.

Concerning the looking different thing, I'm sure that is why some people have a problem with it. That doesn't mean that is why all people have a problem with it. According to DHS estimates 57% of illegals in country came from Mexico. The next largest countries of origin are El Salvador and Guatemala at 4% each. The fact is if you are looking at an illegal immigrant odds are they are from Mexico. I think we should go after illegal immigrants regardless of their country of origin. Don't be surprised though when the majority of those captured are from the country that sends us the majority of our illegal immigrants.

If every Mexican crossing the border did so legit and were completely legal, I have a feeling that instead of calling for better border controls folks would be calling for strict quotas on Mexican immigrants. I guess its some thing that happens when you mix Mexican culture with the culture of you southern states that creates a big bowl of turd.....
I don't think it's Mexicans per say moreso than the quantity of Mexicans. You may have Koreans, Salvadorians, Haitians etc, but they are not flooding in by the thousands every month.

However, even the child regardless of their race picks the white doll. I'm just sayin.

That can be partially due to our media shaped culture (the white doll).

As for the quantity, would you prefer us returning to a "country of origin" quota system vs the country agnostic type system we have now?

We need to let in the people who are going to do the U.S. the most good. It's that simple. A doctor regardless of color or religon should be in line before someone who has no education being only a drain on the system. This is why Europeans fly in here easily while Hispanics are last on the list. Call if what you wish...but I call it smart.

Paul, around the turn of the last century it was Irish who were looked down upon. Then it was Italians. These people you imply aren't readily recognizable in a public setting were, in fact, readily recognizable.

Name an instance where disgust towards Irish or Italians generate laws,significant quota changes or changes in immigration policy.

Its all nice to post photos but without any context what value are they again?

Privately made signs against the Irish holds what value? (Side note: I love it how almost every damn group in this country try to play some sort of oppressed card. Not one group can say. "Yeah we always had it pretty good here.")

Do I need to school you on 19th century United States?

Show me where any of the laws currently being discussed explicitly single out 1) anyone, regardless of immigration status or 2) illegal Mexicans. I'd really like to see the law, quota, or immigration policy that so onerously discriminates against legal immigration from Mexico, non white person countries, or even developing countries in general.

In 2008 the largest single group of naturalized US citizens came from Mexico (22.2% of total), followed by India (6.3%), and the Philippines (5.6%) while China, Cuba, and Vietnam each made up 3.8% of the total. Do those really sound like the places where we are getting all the white people who look like Americans we supposedly so desperately want? Somebody at INS must have fucked up.

Listen...I called BS on the Irish\Italian "Weez just like them other oppressed people" card. Nothing more.

You telling me that I'm not allowed to nitpick?
Go f'n f yerself.
Well actually don't because thats kinda nasty and I don't need that imagery in my head.
