See that would be that ism again. Immediately accusing someone of racism without considering any other motives. Like.... hmmm is entering the US (or most any country) without going through the proper channels legal? Well what-do-ya know... it's not! Imagine that. That could be a reason right there.

What do people shout at me when I say I always speed? GO THE SPEED LIMIT! IT'S THE LAW!!!

As for being terrified that "their America" is disappearing, perhaps we should add this to our law books:
*Foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country's internal politics;
*Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets "the equilibrium of the national demographics," when foreigners are deemed detrimental to "economic or national interests," when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken US laws, and when "they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy."

Those laws are good enough for Mexico, shouldn't it be good enough for the Mexicans that come here?

And no, I'm not seriously advocating laws like this. Just enforce the laws we do have.
