I wish I could punch every one of them so hard in their faces that they'd have to stay in the hospital for a few weeks.
[QUOTE=Hektor;20135351]The irony of that statement.
No, but let's assume for the sake of proving the point that I believe anti-semitism is inherently wrong. Protesting illegal immigration is not inherently wrong, in fact I would argue that it is not wrong in any aspect. So your comparison isn't exactly an accurate one.
But you likely would if someone accused you of just that. My point was that although he is accused many times throughout the course of the brief video of being an illegal immigrant, he never even suggests that he isn't. His argument in defense is effectively "ya but mexicans wuz hear 1st." That is, he establishes a red herring to take the spotlight off himself.

Then shouldn't he be protesting illegal immigration as well?[/QUOTE]

That was weird, while I thought it was really funny, one of the guys made a point about the BET tv station.
Like, if someone made a WET (White entertainment television), or MET (Muslim), people would be rioting about it saying its racist.
Wow...protesting for a "serious" matter and they bitch like high school kids.
It's funny because Americans like to flaunt that our nation is the best, and when the poorer nation to the south with horrible conditions, partly due to us funding anti-communist political groups in the Cold War which lead tot he corruption they'e experiencing now in many respects, decides to fight for a better life, which is still worse off than most Americans', by illegally immigrating into our country, we just tell them to back the fuck out.
Their choices are the seemingly utopian America, or starve or be shot in heir own nation. What would you do? As one of the largest, strongest nations on Earth, it is our job to aid the people of, and not the corrupt government of, our friendly neighbor, who time and time again has supported us, and now does so by accepting our businesses' unfounded, capitalist, labor (admittedly that harms our economy more than it hurts, but for the individual companies it's great, and allows you to buy those silly things at Wal-Mart for 2.50$ instead of 4.50$) and being our patsy in South/Central America (Mexico has and will continue to be our diplomatic ally when it concerns other nations to or south, specifically when dealing with matters concerning Cuba and Venezuela).
That wasn't a push you felt :smug:

Not that I'm saying it's right, it's not right.
I find Mexicans hysterial, i'm from Britain and I have a mexican friend and he's the funniest thing since sliced bread. Why would you want to get rid of Mexicans?
mexicans are funnier than bread
okay
Perhaps deport illegal immigrants (or give them a time period to become legal citizens) but if they're here legally I could care less if they're here
Its not like our infrastructure thrives on cheap and content labor or anything.
Another thing added to my "Things to do before I die list": Piss off racist protesters. Like walk into them with a sign saying "I love gay black people" or something.
What I don't understand is that lady in 2:04 speaks perfect Spanish.

Yes. Cameras cost money.
And the ability to waste time making internet videos implies either a good source of income or an exterior means of support, like rich parents. I'm sure you've always had that, so you probably take it for granted, but illegal immigrants don't. That's why they risk arrest or death crossing the border in order to work shitty jobs for less than minimum wage.
Take a break from talking, maybe your brain might start to work.

The video clearly isn't even filmed on an expensive camera, that's what's funny. It appears to either be a very, very cheap ($30-40 range) camera, or a cell phone camera. YouTube costs absolutely nothing, as you can probably conclude from 99% of the videos hosted on it.

As you can see our "infrastructure" is really thriving atm. With hundreds of thousands of legal American citizens desperate for a job.
[QUOTE=Tosti;20137004]Hmn, define this one. It left me confused.[/QUOTE]
It's somewhat simple -- nations are established by war. When Europeans came to what is now the United States of America, they fought a war for the territory, which ended by diplomatic means. Exactly like any other war. So if Americans are "illegal immigrants" than so are the paleo-Indians who they fought against when they came here; so are Turks, Germans, et cetera.
[QUOTE=Detective P;20136671]Their choices are the seemingly utopian America, or starve or be shot in heir own nation. What would you do?[/quote]
Um, since when are those their only two choices? Why can they not migrate South instead of North? You complain that Mexicans live in a shit society, yet it was Mexicans who created that society, so by supporting illegal immigration of Mexicans all you can hope to achieve is for that "cultural influence" in your nation.
[quote]As one of the largest, strongest nations on Earth, it is our job to aid the people of, and not the corrupt government of, our friendly neighbor...[/QUOTE]
Right, but what does that have to do with illegal immigration? Mexicans are allowed into the country... legally. What they are not allowed to do is sneak into the country illegally, entering and leaving as they please without authorisation, while legal citizens themselves can't.
I remember where I've seen that "DONT POOSH MEH BRO" guy before.

A: You do not know what the word infrastructure means.
B: Hundreds of thousands of citizens are desperate for high-wage jobs. Low-wage jobs like construction rely heavily on minimum wage (or below) labor because we spend a LOT of money on designs and materials and not very much on the actual labor costs. If we were to forgo cheap labor then we could not create new jobs such as positions in manufacturing, power and refineries.
C: Millions of legal American citizens such as yourself have no idea what it's like to be in such a position that you are willing to risk life and limb for a better life for yourself and your family. Anyone who is determined enough to take that many risks just because they want to live and love in this country? They're more American than you or I will ever be.
