Nancy Pelosi: 'Race Has Something To Do With' Delay On Immigration Reform

[Leatherneck 693]

What is your game plan to overcome this particular scenario ? You mention 'now' but I note it's been prevalent since 1987, at least in Texas.

Even longer in California.

[Leatherneck 693]

The whole amnesty thing brings up another issue. What about the folks here still going through the process to get their loved ones here? There's only so many USCIS resources. Even though my wife is a citizen and we're done with all that, I still stand strong with my brothers and sisters still going through the legal immigration process.

Your brothers and sisters still in the immigration struggle appreciate your support.

Nope, I don't ignore illegal immigration with regards to any group. My point was to shed a little light on the slant

"We know the Republicans does not like anything darker than a piece of paper."

As well show how folks in some cities in Southern Cali are suffering as a result of unchecked illegal immigration from south of the border. I didn't know illegal Russians, Irish, or Asians engaged in the same.

Please show me the Republicans complaining about non-brown-black people and I will retract my statement.

They are, perhaps not in your neighborhood. The immigration issue is not exclusive of one single group, however Mexicans have become the scapegoat for all things immigration. Take a look at crime in other parts of California as a result of other ethnic group.

The pitfall here is to assign race or ethnicity to any one single group of individuals. The abusers come on foot across the border and by plane across oceans.

This people come here because they have a guaranteed job in America's exploitative, employment system.

Some of these companies probably have recruiters on the grounds in Mexico telling them where to meet the traffickers.

The Republicans don't want to lose their greatest allies, companies and corporations that employ illegals, by reforming.

Then these illegals who are working on these Strawberry plantations could demand more than $400 a month if they became legal.

They wouldn't come if they knew they wouldn't get a job.

Do you even know anybody here illegally or where they work?

With regard to what I pointed out, there was no scapegoating -- the facts are the facts. The issue is really with those from south of the border that engage in trying to rid entire cities/neighborhoods of folks that are darker than a piece of paper.

You have any links to news stories of illegal Russians, Irish, and Asian street gangs engaging in the same ethnic cleansing of blacks from cities?

Me, show you what?

You made the statement "We know the Republicans does not like anything darker than a piece of paper." You prove your point, if you can't -- then you take back your statement.

I was not pointing out you (personally) was scapegoating, so much as 'you' (generic case) tend to do so...

What's up with calling them illegal gang members? Does that add some extra menace to the word?

Me, show you what?

Actually, that points been proven time and time again here. If you like I can post links.

You must be new here. We have talked about this before. You should go through and read some of our old posts with articles and videos. I can't reiterate my points every time a new person joins.

Sorry

Illegal alien Russian, illegal alien Irish, and illegal alien Asian gangs -- to clarify for you.

Really, it's been proven that "We know the Republicans does not like anything darker than a piece of paper.?"

Actually, a gang member is a gang member, if he's illegal or not, he's still a gang member. If he was legal, he'd still be a gang member.

Take a good look at the links I've posted. When the GOP makes the same comments about white, heterosexual, male, rural community, then I'll recant my statement.

New here, hardly. Guess I missed that class.

You got any of examples of that long history of the Democratic party not liking folks darker than a piece of paper? Shouldn't be too hard for you to find.

You're a smart guy, you know "illegal" as used refers to immigrantion status -- not gang membership.
