Having considered some friends… through this process I’ve learned that when they emerge from the shadows they look nothing like us. They are: a conglomeration of overly educated whiners looking at un-checked illegal immigration as a way of ‘punishing’ America; genetically linked Hispanics so intensely looking out for their own that the word RACIST could have been coined for them; and a scattered cadre of Social Service providers whose paychecks depend on a continued flow of tax leaches.<BR/><BR/>Looking in their mirrors (if they dare) they're no different than the scum they describe.

They will still refuse to learn the language and will instead demand that labels, documents, signs, and managers be bilingual. They will still send millions upon millions of Dollars back to Mexico, El Salavador, Guatamala, Ukraine, China, Thailand, Haiti, and elsewhere thereby removing those dollars from the U.S. Economy. They will refuse to assimilate and will openly denegrate the country they worked so hard to get into illegally, and have gained so much by doing so, and will Praise their country of origin.<BR/><BR/>Wait and see.

Talk-show host Larson, for example, frequently refers to his producer as a resident ALIEN.

"Illegal aliens..."Illegal immigrants" I can handle. "Illegal aliens" is an incendiary hot-button phrase intended to denigrate, insult and dehumanize people. They're not people ... they're "aliens." It attempts to instill fear in otherwise rational people ... "We're being invaded by <I>aliens!</I> The <I>aliens</I> are taking over!" "Aliens" has become the new "nigger" in the language of bigotry. <BR/><BR/>Our immigration laws are out of date. The requirements of global capitalism -- of which the USA is the single biggest component -- requires, and in fact FORCES -- a level of immigration into this country that is beyond what current laws and quotas allow. SO CHANGE THE FUCKING LAW and quit bitching! In any other historical period, you guys would have been the ones insisting that only men should vote, that our economy depends on slave labor, and that liquor ought to be illegal -- totally insane, immoral and unworkable positions. <BR/><BR/>But you guys would have been on the front lines, I'm sure, with your silly signs: "I will not rest until women are barred from the polls and put back in the kitchen and bedroom where they belong!"<BR/><BR/>Join the 21st century, folks. It's sort of fucked up at the moment, but the "aliens" in this country are not the problem. They are, fundamentally, like you and I ... although I dare say that most of them are probably more sophisticated than you dinosaurs are.<BR/><BR/>I will now wait for one of you to do a Google search and find an illegal immigrant who was arrested for committing some horrific, violent crime, and you -- in all your sophistication -- can present that as evidence that "they" are really NOT like you or I at all, but that "they" are barbarians.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11266150.post-47000093430838730782007-06-09T08:52:00.000-07:002007-06-09T08:52:00.000-07:00What a shock.

What would be nice is if in addition to typing out the definition of NATIVISM, he could read it as well.<BR/><BR/>No one is arguing against immigrants. The argument here is against illegal aliens An illegal alien is not an immigrant and thus the word does not apply.<BR/><BR/>Its a favourite tactic of those who don't have an argument, use extreme words to imply extreme positions to insult and bully your opponent. <BR/><BR/>It really is a very simple proposition: <BR/><BR/>a) What is bigoted and nativist about wanting to enforce the law?<BR/><BR/>b) What is bigoted and nativist about not wanting to change the law in a way that repeats the mistakes of the 1986 amnesty? Is learning from past mistakes nativist? <BR/><BR/>c) If its impractical to enforce the law because the law breaking is so widespread, then please explain to me why my people should be paying any taxes at all? Tax evasion is widespread. My people have deep cultural roots against high taxes and excessive government. Why are you being so bigoted in enforcing this law against my people?<BR/><BR/>If you cant answer those questions, and all you can do is hurl KKK, Bigoted, Racist, Nativist, Xenophobe then please, go take your dictionary and sit down and masturbate with it. That would be a far more productive endevour than trying to pretend you have an argument.

Answering real complex questions disturbs most politicians. That said, the SPLC like most successful advocacy groups start out with good intentions and morph into nothing but a money grubbing power hungry mockery of itself. Much like the constant fear mongering coming out of the White House, the SPLC peddles fear in order to convince the left that we need to surrender more of our civil rights in order to be protected. They work hand in hand with the right.
