So it's ok to dress up like a nun and mock Catholicism in San Francisco but you can't make fun of illegal aliens. Go figure.

Sparking ire is the surest sign of a successful Halloween costume.

Illegal aliens are offensive to me. Gang culture is offensive to me. People who can’t or won’t learn or speak English in this country are offensive to me.

People who don’t assimilate into the most free, productive, generous and successful country in the world offend me.

It’s a two way street.

No if he shows up on your doorstep you are going to have to give him free health care, Section 8 housing, food stamps, free education for his kids, a motor voter registration card and a lawyer. Kind of hard to fit it in his bag.

get rid of the GREEN CARD, and Replace the ALIEN MASK with a full head OBAMA MASK... then let’s see HISSY FITS

Illegal aliens SHOULD have a stigma! If they went back home, then, *poof*, the stigma would be gone!

BTW, I was very offended by the rice and beans that someone threw up in my front yard. This really happened!
