    anti-illegal-immigrants being simply anti-non-whites

    [youtube]5LCL2IqgjSc[/youtube]

    This isn't a reflection of all persons against illegal immigration, of course, but undoubtedly many are. If you think of it this way, every racist is going to be against immigration (even the legal kind, as seen in this video). Knowing their passion resides in illogical hate kinda deteriorates their argument (well, it entirely deteriorates their fallacious arguments, which are the only ones they're making). For example, not one legitimate political argument was stated anywhere in that video - just random insults ("you're a coward for not fixing your own country"). Only one man even attempted to justify his belief with a random incoherent thought about social security, blissfully unaware that the legal immigrant (very likely not even an immigrant) to whom he was speaking had nothing to do with it. It was almost a valid statement.

    Sounds like a typical hyperbolic sessions between the PF's Left and Right Wing extremists.

    Agreed, but since that won't work, the next best thing is to have the more intelligent and cooler-headed middle push to improve the levels of education, tolerance and decorum in our national discussions. While people like Beck, Limbaugh and Olbermann have every right to spew their venom, we, as a society, should be shunning such behavior, not making them rich.

    "you're a coward for not fixing your own country" doesn't sound hyperbolic to me. It sounds retarded.

    Also, extremism is always the flavor of the month. It's apparently an innate human feature.

    Yet the argument of "I'm a native of the continent"........

    Absolute BS. The continent is what it is because of European arrivals. Mexico is what it is because of the Spanish and America is what it is because of not only Europeans but also Africans, Asians. Just because some is "indigenous" doesn't mean a thing.

    The Law is the law. Just as an America walking the border cannot live legally in Mexico, a Mexican can't live the in the US legally.

    All countries in the world has immigration laws and ethnicity has absolute nothing to do with it

    Pointing out the inherent racist tone of anti-immigrants. None are protesting the high number of Canadians strolling around our streets, taking our jobs and slowly taking over the comedy industry.
