"I am a black woman who grew up in rural Oklahoma"
"But when a co-worker called me a racist, I was absolutely unprepared.
The accusation was made largely because of a sticker on the back of my truck. The simple statement "Stop illegal immigration" has earned me angry looks and obscene gestures in traffic."

" I have felt the isolation of being a conservative Republican instead of the liberal Democrat I am expected to be"
Sister, I’m against it too and I’m a white “racist”.
Proud of you!
“Illegal immigrants in this country, like any other criminal, have an excuse for why they committed a crime. But if the tale is sad enough, should we forgive them for their original criminal act because they decide to behave? Should we allow them to take jobs away from law-abiding Americans and call them noble for doing so? How about we offer to pay their medical bills and send their children to college? If, in the course of providing these things, we find ourselves going broke, and we say to them, “Enough is enough, we cannot ignore your crimes any longer because it only encourages more criminals,” should we be surprised when these violators take to the streets demanding they be allowed to continue the way of life they have become accustomed to? “
To an an ILLEGAL of any stripe is to be a CRIMINAL.
ILLEGALS are CRIMINALS - they break our laws, hence a CRIMINAL.
I’m against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION TOO!
“Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”
Illegal imigration friends are simply pc.
“I am a fighter and I refuse to be bullied. I have earned, the hard way, the right to display my opinion. If my “Stop illegal immigration” sticker offends you, maybe you should focus on the one next to it that states, “My son is a United States Marine.” Then hopefully you will understand that sacrifice and fighting for country runs deep in my family. “
LOVE THIS WOMAN!!!
This is not a racist but a clear thinking American Patriot!
However ... blacks have got to stop playing the "How-dare-you-call-me-a-racist" game. Yes, it's wrong to call her a racist because she's against illegal immigration. But the fact that she is "totally unprepared" when someone calls her a racist is pitiful.
I do not know any white racists. I really don't. In college. 25 years ago, I knew one. That's it. But black racists?? I live near them, I work with them, I see them on TV. Racism is very much alive and well in the black community.
They've got to get rid of this "Don't-you-call-me-a-racist---can't-you-see-I'm-black" attitude.
Excellent!
I know plenty of white, black, and red racist's.
They come in ALL colors....
No man is above the law and no man is below it: nor do we ask any man’s permission when we ask him to obey it.
Theodore Roosevelt
Obedience of the law is demanded; not asked as a favor.
Theodore Roosevelt
There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only 100 percent. Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.
Theodore Roosevelt
Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.

Instead I’ve left the quotations and intend to disseminate it.
Let us not forget brown racists...and the Mexican KKK~La Raza...
“clear thinking American Patriot!”
You got that right! This is who the republican party should have been recruiting all along instead of sucking up to the illegals’ lobby!

“Blacks are more racist than whites.”
- Larry Elder, “The Ten Things You Can’t Say In America”
A few years (and cars) ago, my wife had a bumper sticker with a quote from George Washington about the need for a moral people to believe in God.
In that car we got chased, cut off, screamed at, and a never ending stream of gestures and obscenities. (Not all of it because of my wife's driving.)
It doesn't matter what you say. If Liberals don't agree, they will treat you like the lowest scum on the face of the Earth for it. They don't believe in polite disagreement.
Bump. Nice post.
We need more citizens like her!
