1. If the cops in my town want to go catch illegal immigrants, all they have to do is go downtown, which is nothing but hispanics and brazilians.
Yes it is since you are basing an assumtion off of race and you haven't the slightliest idea the percentage of illegal that reside in Downtown. I'm latino and I'm not an illegal

Quote:
2. If I had a choice between a white immigrant and a black/hispanic immigrant, I would choose the white immigrant.
Why?

Quote:
3. I'm afraid of the rising tide of hispanics because they don't seem to want to assimilate as much of previous rounds of immigrants.
You seem to forget that because of technology latinos stay intouch with what is happen in there country and with there family members in there country. I remember a stat saying that 60% 2nd generation latino (me) speak better english than spanish.

Quote:
4. Its ok to have the FBI/CIA do racial profiling of muslims more than others because terrorists tend to be muslims.
In 2003 one guy that was smuggling radiation to make bombs was Puerto Rican. I somewhat agree with your opinion but you have to realize that you can't neglate other ethicities. Iranians for example can pass for latinos or whites so what happen if a Iranian changes his name to Jay Smith?

Quote:
5. Its ok for cops to put a higher on emphasis on minority neighborhoods, as thats where the most crime is.
So what about poor white neighborhoods.

Code:
6. Blacks are poor because they have a poor work ethic.
Quote:
7. I prefer Asian immigrants to South American immigrants.
It is a very ignorant assumtion to make but I know where you are coming from. Asian immigrant unlike many latinos immigrant are from the middle class and most of them went to college in there countries. A big percentage of latinos didn't even finish high school in there country but the many South American like my father came here in as a foreign student.



Quote:
9. If I see a black man at 2AM in the city, I will be more suspicious of him that that of a white/asian man.
I know the feeling, well how the black guy feels

Quote:
10. I don't want to deal with people who only speak spanish for business.

11. English should be the official language.

12. The government should not print anything with additional spanish text.
I kinda feel da same why but not for your bigot reasons

So what do you think? I'll add others if I think of any.[/quote]
