No, I think we can't win if we continuously make gratuitous insults to Hispanics. ie; "Hispanics are destroying our neighborhood, ruining our culture, lowering our education levels, etc... Inserting the word "illegal" doesn't fool anyone.

The word "illegal" is inserted because that's who we're referring to, Einstein, ILLEGAL ALIENS. Thanks anyway for injecting the illegal immigration lobby's spin into this thread. But guess what? You aren't fooling anyone.

No you're not. When y'all post pictures of Hispanic looking men standing on a street corner you don't know whether they are native born Americans, naturalized citizens, legal immigrants or illegal aliens. All you know is that they look Hispanic.

When you say you've seen emergency rooms filled with illegals, everyone knows you really mean you've seen them filled with Hispanic looking people. You don't know anything about their citizenship or immigration status.

When you complain of hearing illegals speaking Spanish everyone knows you really mean you are complaining about Hispanics because you don't know their immigration status.

When you talk about an "invasion" in California of illegals, everyone knows that you are talking about the increased percentage of the population that is Hispanic due to births and legal immigration, because the per cent of illegals has not increased in a number of years.

I wouldn't care at all about how much animosity you generate from Hispanics if it weren't for the fact that they think you are Republicans or conservatives.
