'Tacky'? I would use the word 'effective'.

For all their statements about it being racist, it is interesting that the Latinos associate illegal aliens with Latinos.

I agree with you. Although I would characterize the tactic as 'innovative'.

[WindOracle]

That IS a good point.. why is it the Latinos ASSUMED it was in reference to THEM particularly?

There is nothing racist about wanting a closed border policy. I would not give a damn if the illegals entering the country were black, white, red, yellow, or purple. It is our governments job to look after the interest of AMERICANS FIRST. Neither American, nor Mexican are races, they are NATIONALITIES.

Bingo!

My observation too. I'm willing to bet they no more speak for the Latino community than Jesse Jagoff does for the blacks.

Besides, there are no black-americans, latino-americans, irish-americans, russian-americans, etc, etc, etc. Only Americans.

Yours is the only point worth discussing, since, in fact, the Latinos looked at what I presume were "white" Americans with nearly translucent skin, pretending to be illegals, and said "Lo, look, Hispanics"!

The bias and prejudice is in the eye of the beholder for sure.

Around here we have 80,000 plus Korean immigrants (and their children). There are another 50,000 Korean illegal alien immigrants estimated to be here as well.

Not to discuss Koreans, in general, but their presence proves the Latino protestors at that school are so woefully ignorant of what's going on they probably should not have been admitted to college.

Good analysis, I am assuming the people were caucasian predominately, so how would the latinos assume they were mocking them?

Bingo! Give the man some candy.
