Amazing! Your spittle-flecks are actually oozing out of my monitor’s screen! :eek:
Lynn Bondoni happened to have said 99.99% of "Mexican " legal immigrants opposed illegal immigration to which I responded. Then you actually quoted my response which included the term “Mexican immigrants” and went on to post some more of your nonsense which included speaking for those same “Mexican legal immigrants” . Now you want to change the debate to ALL legal immigrants. What an idiot.
yeah i gotta call bullshit on the 99.9 thing too. most are not for or against. Like Eva Luna says most know, especially if they are from Mexico the difficulty in emmigrating legally. the only ones who seem to harbor some of that sentiment that I have encountered here in Texas are 3 or 4 th generation Mexican Americans. Cuz hey they got theirs and ironically some of their grandparents and or parents were here illegally. but hey, that’s different:rolleyes:
This is in Texas experience may vary
There certainly is a difference. There is also a DIFFERENCE between being AGAINST something and being indifferent to it.

ALL CAPS is just tacky. However, do capitalize the “M” in Mexican.
(Let me guess: You’re an advocate of “English Only!”)
Yeah. But I took it as an obvious bit of hyperbole. Kinda like “CBEscapee is a billion times dumber than a cactus. And a thousand times more racist than David Duke.” I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if those statements were off somewhat, even to a largish degree.
Which would make me a billion times smarter than magellan and a thousand times less racist too. Those might be somewhat exaggerated, but not by much.
I see you came back after running away. So nice to see you again?
Tell me, are you simply pathetically unoriginal? Or is it a Mexican thing, like not respecting borders?
Respecting borders? I know you are too stupid to recognize irony but that is so laughable coming from a citizen of a country that has several hunred thousand armed troops in Iraq.
Brilliant! Those those two things are perfectly analogous. Individuals sneaking across a border, seeking to remain invisible and a country involved in a military action are soooo similar. :rolleyes:
After this latest imbecility from you, I fear that my respect for the cactus’s mental ability has just skyrocketed.
It justs shows what a heaping pile of hypocrisy you are. Your bigoted little pea brain freaks out because a person from a race you consider inferior crosses some imaginary line in the sand but you can send your young men half way around the world to kill other inferior people.
Wow, they let anyone join these boards lately I guess.
I feel soiled just reading this garbage. I need a shower…
:eek:
Dude, I know this is the Pit and all, but hell, that even offended ME.
Where did you get this idea? If another country agrees to accept the person, then the stateless person certainly can be deported.
Yes, he counts. I’d never heard of him before, but I admitted that there could be Hispanics of Asian descent. And he proves my point…Hispanic is not a race, it’s a culture, a heritage. Hispanics in general, and Mexicans in particular, are not any one race. Just like a US citizen might be of any color or heritage. Some colors and heritages are more common, that’s all. If I hear a Hispanic last name, I don’t think “brown person”.
Actually, of the Mexican/Hispanic immigrants and their descendants that I talk to, if they came to America and stayed legally, ALL of them are against illegal immigration. ALL of them. Their feeling is that they or their parents followed the rules, and it’s unfair that some people DON’T follow the rules. Many of my friends and neighbors are Hispanic or Hispanic descent. Since they ARE my friends and neighbors, I talk to them.
Also, Lebanon is NOT in Asia. It’s in the Middle East. I’d say that YOUR ignorance is showing.
Wait a minute. He is right. They ARE the same. Therefore, all the illegal mexicans in America are INVADERS. Therefore they have no rights nor do their children who are born here! Children of foreign invaders, even if they are born here, are NOT considered natural born US Citizens.
Question, Lynn: What was the typical waiting period for your legal-immigrant neighbors to come here legally? I’m not being partisan on this – best evidence I have is that it was substantially easier in the past than today to be a legal immigrant from Mexico, and I’d love to see what they have to say in terms of numbers. (Another question: I don’t know Fort Worth history well. Was there any significant Hispanic presence there prior to the creation of the whole quota system for immigrants. That could be really relevant to applying your anecdotal evidence to good policy making.)
U.S. Fish and Wildlife have declared an 80 mile stretch of border off-limits to US citizens.
I really hate to agree with some of these folks, but that area really does need a permanent military presence, with very liberal Rules of Engagement.
Uh, call me crazy, but I do believe that the majority of the Middle East is in Asia. Including Lebanon.

*The Middle East (or West Asia) sits where Africa, Asia and Europe meet. The countries of the Middle East are all part of Asia, but for clarity reasons we geographically show them here as a separate landmass. *
I have no idea what the typical waiting period was. However, my friends didn’t all come over in one time period.
I’ve lived in Fort Worth most of my life, I was born here, and spent most of my childhood here. I’ve lived elsewhere for about 14 or 15 years of my life (it’s been broken up some), but I’ve lived most of my life here. At any rate, there’s always been a significant Hispanic presence here, though Fort Worth, Dallas, and the rest of the area (called the Metroplex) are becoming more Hispanic, as are many Texas cities.
