What has always astonished me is why the Black Congressional Caucus has stayed silent on this. First, the illegals are taking jobs that would otherwise be those that used to be filled by their constituencies. When people talk about unemployment of more than 25% among black men, why don't the BCC scream to shut down the borders?
Second, as this country transforms into just another Latin or South American country, the sort of racism and nastiness towards blacks that we see in Brazil, Mexico and the rest will happen here. If Blacks think that the segregation of the South was awful, as they get displaced in more and more places (look at LA), there will be little left for them, and they will be at the very bottom of the social strata.
For politicians of either party, Black support for shutting down the border would be hugely important, for the simple reason that the opposition couldn't then play the racism card.
Where are you Jesse or Kwaze(sp?) or Julian?
They can thank their leaders like Jesse for that when it happens --- and it will happen. They were stupid when they believed only whites could be racist --- in this region, we're seeing some ugly race riots in the schools --- and they don't involve whites at all --- the immigrants don't think the black kids from the military families stationed here belong in "their" schools.
