"But calls for vigilantism, using epithets, wholesale condemnation of certain peoples, etc. are never in order. On any board."

I agree. Can't say that I've ever seen any of that on FreeRepublic. What I HAVE seen is those on the open-borders side of the issue playing the race card at every opportunity. Apparently I'm not the only one that has noticed it.

THAT is too true. And then they disingnuously merge legal and illegal immigrants, use stupid non-sequiters like "no person is illegal."

I see and hear it all the time. And it disgusts me.
