Did you have to ask? LOL sure.

Ok, let me try, one last time, to spell it out for everyone. We all know that there are not just Spanish illegals in America. There is also a failr large contingent of Slovaks..(Russian, Polish, Chez, etc). A fairly large contingent of Canadians, Koreans, Japanese, etc.

The post was designed and worded in such a way as to inflame anger towards illegals living in this Country. But not just any illegals. Now, ask yourself... when you read the post, did you feel anger towards Canadians? No?, ok then, how about Koreans? No?, ok then, how about Slovaks? Still no? Hmmm... did you just feel anger towards Spanish illegals? Yes? Ok then.. now we're making progress. That singling out of one particular race is what makes the post racist. It is designed and worded, in such a way as to make you angry strictly and solely towards Spanish illegals. That's racism 101 folks. If you don't agree, well, like the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. I can point out to you why it's racist, but if you don't want to accept it, well, again, I can't force you. I agree with almost everything in the original post, I just do not like it being racial towards one particular ethnicity, no matter if they have the largest or smallest percentage of illegals in the Country.

I guess I'm an exception as teh jose reference did not cause me to single out just spanish illegals. One could argue that using billy bob could be racist, or somebody with a name with no vowels. It's all in the perception of teh person reading it, and I didn't find it racist in any way.

By the same logic, saying "Joe" legal.....implies all Americans obey the law?

[phatdaddy]

the only one i was upset about was jose,

in your other analogy, were you the water or the horse?

Neither, I was the one LEADING the horse. (although I'm thinking that it's more like a donkey than a horse)

Actually, you're sort of correct. In my second post on this subject I said

Joe is our normal American hero worker/father

Jose is our normal Spanish illegal worker/father

The implication was that American Joe was a good guy and Spanish Jose wasn't.

Ferm, if, when you read the original post, you didn't think that Jose was Spanish then that's great, cause that's the way it should be.. the post should be against ALL illegal trash that are destroying our Country, not just the Spanish ones.
