When this is your only argument, you have lost the argument, and we all see it as plain as day.
But thanks for your replies anyway, because each reply means that 15 more lurkers will read the article as it is bumped to the top.
Don't guess you've ever heard of these folks?

"In an extraordinary political move, President Vicente Fox has announced the formation of a cabinet level agency to govern, protect and provide services to over 20 million Mexicans now living in Aztlan, a territory encompassing most of the southwest part of the USA. President Fox declared yesterday that he will personally lead the new agency he named "Consejo Nacional para las Comunidades Mexicanas en el Exterior" (National Council for Mexican Communities Abroad). The "Council" will consist of the president, most of the cabinet secretaries and a, as of yet unnamed, representative from Aztlan. This is a bold move that essentially extends the arm of the Mexican government into the territories it previously lost during the Mexican-American War of 1848."
~ Reported in "La Voz de Aztlan", August 7, 2002.
"We have Nicaragua, soon we will have El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Mexico. One day, tomorrow or five years or fifteen years from now, we're going to take 5 to 10 million Mexicans and they are going into Dallas, into El Paso, into Houston, into New Mexico, into San Diego, and each one will have embedded in his mind the idea of killing ten Americans."
~Thomas Borge, Nicaragua Interior Minister as quoted in the Washington Times, March 27, 1985
Forgive me for disagreeing, but I believe you would cry racist regardless. I see youve been a member of this forum since 2001. What have you been reading?
Are you trying to tell us that you dont see any problems among the recent millions of Mexican, mostly illegal or amnestied migrants? Any massive migration, especially illegal entry ALWAYS has serious problems. Show us one time in history it didnt. Look at this nation in its beginning. Wasnt too kind to the inhabitants was it? It does not MATTER what color their skin is. Only a fool judges people by the color of their skin. Good Mexican Americans dont like this mess anymore than we whities do. Are they racist?
Go search some articles, if you care to know, which I doubt. There are plenty about the burning of American Flags, with pictures, by the way. There are numerous accounts and photos of the many vicious attacks on property and persons, some old ladies. Too many of these new arrivals wave only the Mexican Flag. They shout in Mexico at our sports teams, OSAMA! OSAMA!. They smuggle Arabs, Chinese, Koreans, ANY one that wants across that border. ANY one.
Read about the conversion of thousands of Hispanics to Islam. 13 mosques and schools in Mexico. More in the US. They march in our streets, demanding their rights. 95% of the outstanding murder warrants in LA are for Illegals. MS-13 is considered the MOST dangerous and largest membered gang in this country. US citizens property and safety is being destroyed daily by these entrants. Many of them here on this forum.
Many of these immigrants are innocents, being used by any one who would exploit them and make a profit off them, usually one of their own color. They are trapped in the culture of organized crime that exists within the Mexican Immigrant community.
And if you dont know about these things, please educate yourself before you call a good man like Krikorian a racist.
