I am surprised that on a board as conservative as Free Republic, so many people are so quick to throw down the Racist label for someone that simply advocates following the law.

This tells me that you know you are wrong and you have no other argument.

I am surprised that on a board as conservative as Free Republic, so many people are so quick to throw down the Racist label for someone that simply advocates following the law.

We learned back in 1998-1999 that "the law" is a very subjective thing.

For example, did you know that you can perjure yourself in front of a federal judge and not serve any jail time (ESPECIALLY if you're a Democrat president)...?

I've had a difficult time with snickering when someone brings up "following the law" ever since.

And then there's that whole "Undocumented Americans" thingee, too. I've had a difficult time finding out what the legal penalties for that are, but I must confess that I have little Internet research experience or aptitude with which to illuminate the facts of the matter.

Or not - I always forget which one it is...
