Why, do you hate Mexicans?
Or better yet, do you like anyone who hates America?
A simple yes or no will do.
Is that some sort of debating tactic, saying "a yes or no will do"?
No, I do not like anyone who hates America. I also don't think that the behavior of a bunch of football fan troublemakers should be used to apply collective judgement to all Mexicans. With the immigration debate going on, a lot of people have been trying to stir up emotional reactions to Mexico instead of dispassionately focusing on the important issue, which is enforcement of the law. To the degree that people on FR are using that tactic, it damages the credibility of the rest of us and the argument we're trying to make.
