I take it you don't know the answer to the questions I asked and you assume the founder of Operation Blockade and the people who voted for him is a white racist. You make the racist assumption that everyone who opposes skyrocket high illegal immigration is white. I voted for Keyes by the way ---since I wanted a black president and you didn't you must be a racist.

I asked a couple of posters if there were more racialist posters on FR of late. You were not addressed on the post, but you responded with an irrelevant question. Generally, such actions are undertaken by those who, in some way, feel like THEIR attitudes and beliefs are under attack. It's called "guilty conscience."

Go back and read the posts on this thread--and if you can say with a straight face that absolutely no racialists post on FR, then your problem is that you are one of them.

I won't say there aren't racists but I happen to live near a town that is 80% hispanic and the town I live closest to is 95% hispanic and I guarantee you that very many non-white/non-anglos are opposed to illegal immigration and high legal immigration. I haven't met a single black yet who thinks there should be no controls at all on immigration and I'm not sure I've met a hispanic that believes there shouldn't be either (especially the ones who went through the legal way and followed the rules). Every hispanic I knew was applauding Operation Blockade and Hold the Line because they were sick of the problems----I don't think immigration is a race issue at all ----blacks were here before most groups and I never assume a hispanic is an immigrant because many were here before the SW became the US. Even if there are racists, I've never heard or read one suggest that if countries like Sweden or Germany were dumping their welfare class on us or other leaders were demanding we take any people they didn't want, it would be fine.
