Well, at least you are consistent and I can agree with a total shutdown rather than one simply targeted at Hispanics. Hispanics probably vote more like 65%-35% Deonrat but substantially for two reasons. First Democrats welcome them and Republicans do not. People like people who welcome them better than people who don't welcome them. Second there is a really regrettable group on the conservative side who leave no stone unturned in their never-ending quest to insult Hispanics.

The mere fact that you gave the decidedly non-hysterical and probably minimalist 60% number for Hispanics voting Democrat PROVES that you are not one of the offenders in this second respect. You may not be comfortable with the volume of immigration much less the volume of illegal immigration but you don't torture the truth to make a point. I can respect that and even agree that we have all too many immigrants right now and need to shut it down generally. My great grandfather was a member of the Canadian Parliament for 17 years encompassing the WW I era. My grandfather (his son) apparently left Canada despite his father's wealth because he had a bellyful of his father and of Canada. His father's mansion is now the town museum. My grandfather died in the Spanish Influenza in 1918 and my great grandfather died a year or two before I was born. I have never felt the need to communicate with those long alienated Canadian relatives who survive.

BTW, I assume that you share the belief that importing J. Random Muslim from such blood bowls as Syria, Iraq, Sudan, etc. retires the trophy for stupidity and the Demonrats are the permanent winners entitled to full "credit" at the funeral of each American victim of Islamofascist terrorism.

On issues Hispanics are mostly liberal. Hoping that their Catholic faith will make them socially conservative is like hoping that Pope Francis is, deep down, really a conservative. It just doesn't pan out. Immigrants generally reflect the culture of their country of origin. The United States has a unique culture of liberty, especially when it comes to freedom of religion, speech and self defense. We could limit immigration to hardcore anti-communists from Russia, Cuba and Eastern Europe, but that's a pipe dream.
