You know what? Not so very strange.
Read sometime about racial sensitivity exercises that some college freshmen have to go through.
Notice that poor Juanita had never actually HAD those insults leveled at her. She was just practicing a little pre-emptive self-pity. You know ... all those gringos being such a bunch of bigots and all ... Good to get a jump on the victimology.
I guess a "You must be this tall to vote" sign would really frost his drawers.
ping for later
IMHO, doubleplusungood.
Well, here we go!
Can't find Louisiana, North America or Europe on a map? Can't do basic arithmetic without a calculator?
But by gawd, you'll be sensitive!
Our fault again.
Well, I guess we could just go with "criminals."
Difference...A person did not choose their ethnicity, so racism is wrong. A person DOES however CHOOSE their legal status. There is a big difference there, IMHO.
The language makes me ill.
Then why did you make it up? Binge at lunch?
If we are 'gringos' there, then they are 'gringos' here.
I heard one of the May 1 organizers try to rip Lou dobbs apart for calling them 'illegal aliens'. In comparison, the man let out a string of racial slurs like you wouldn't believe, including the "n" word in prime time live time. I was surprised Dobbs continued the conversation.
As far as Im concerned, feigning outrage over the what they truly are is nothing more than yet another attempt to intimidate us into letting them have it their way.
Not happening here.
Thanks.
The first element?
Islam, a Religion of Peace®? ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Pic, and scroll backwards:
The other, somewhat interlocking element is this one:
"Thunder on the Border," click the picture:
What is happening under the radar is that the alien lobby, certain elements of radical Islam, and some on the Left share common goals, tactics, and exploitations of our system and society.
See "ANSWER" in the poster?
Work backwards on my links to see all the shady left-wing and terrorist-enabling organizations backing this nonsense.
Well, if Juanita is in fact an illegal, perhaps her parents should have chosen to stay in their home country.
Liberal pieties are always bad, and so is Liberalism in general, but this piece fits nicely into a special category I call "Wet Liberalism". The kind of rancid black/white, no-irony kind of reading of every situation as if it held the key to understanding the "horrid" heritage of racist America. The kind of thing that has a perennial appeal to wide eyed, quivery-lipped adolescents who just KNOW they have discovered "social injustice" before everyone else has.
That's my take as well. I agree with Hugh on some matters and disagree with him rather stridently on others.
I don't like the word illegals either. I prefer the phrase illegal invaders.

Not true, but the inmates are running the asylum.
