    And if the Mexican guy didn't say anything to you about his nationality - then you'd ask him, right? :twisted:

    I proved to his GF that he wasn't Mexican..because he left the table all pissed off. She stayed with me at the table and talked to me about the ideologies. I convinced her to talk to her BF and tell him that he was wrong. I won the argument there hummingbird. I told her to take him to a therapist and look into who he really is. The problems with Mexicans here in california is that they have no identity, and that doesn't happen with blacks. Do you see a black guy telling you he's african? NO! they say they are American. Its not his choice, he's american not mexican.

    In life you have to make a commitment hummingbird, you have to choose who you are. You are either white or black, you are either German or American, you are either republican or democrat. You can't be both. It's time for Mexican-Americans here in california to choose to be americans, starting by speaking english and giving up the old crap about california being Mexico.

    I won.

    His people are already legal here. They're called legal immigrants. Also known as Americans. What you and the Democrats are trying to do is legalize criminals. Please stop acting as if the two are the same thing so you can point the finger at conservatives and call them racist simply for wanting people to follow the law.

    Thank you.

    The only thing that the democrats are trying to do is get votes at any cost.

    I read your psychobabble and all I can do is shake my head and thank the Lord above that you're not a neighbor of mine........

    You go to a wedding that's supposed to be a happy occasion for everyone and what do you do? Zero in on a stranger who was speaking Spanish to others, not YOU! and you poke your nose into his life, telling this person you don't even KNOW how he should think, feel, act and speak about his own heritage!

    If I had been his GF, I would have left w/him, after verbally knocking you down a few notches......

    No, you didn't win anything, except the "Prick of the Year" award.....:twisted:

    well it is the republican racism that makes these guys think they are mexican..

    if the democrats legalized his whole family he wouldn't feel as if he is a foreign national.

    Did your mother drink while she was pregnant? Tell the truth... do you suffer from "autism" or something? You strike me as a high functioning autism "victim".

    I am not trying to insult you... and as a liberal you should not take these terms as offensive especially.

    Your voice should be heard... I just keep hearing "derpa derpa derp."' If you suffer from a condition, I want to know... not because I want to make fun of you... but because I wish to avoid it.


    Can I hear from the liberals for whom liberalminority speaks?

    I am actually really trying hard not to lump you in. Someone please address me.

    Zero in? lol. what am I an eagle now? Look, your an activist woman right? all liberal and all? I didn't zero in, they sat next to me and we just started talking thats all. If I lived in your neighborhood i'd go around to all the mexican homes and give them a copy of the constitution, bill of rights and an american flag. And I'd advice them to take their kids to an all english school and stop with the BS. They are in american, time to put the past behind. Once you come to america, you become an american.


    Edit Hummingbird, I gave you a rep point because you make some good points..still..

    Don't be so hard on liberalminority. about half of his posts get quite the laugh out of me. The ones that make conservatives apopleptic, doubly so.

    Great word. Breath of fresh air in this place.

    If indeed she faiths her posts, would you find your characterization demeaning? Or, like me, is it hard for you to believe that someone is so... misguided? They must be just trying to get a rise out of people... and do you believe that this supports your position or hurts it?

    I thought for a while she was a sock puppet. I go back and forth thinking she is just trying to raise conservatives blood pressure. If so she is very good at it... and that prompted my question. Someone clever enough to stay in character must realize that they are not helping... which brings me back to sock puppet. Conservative sock puppet... or special liberal.

    I try to figure things out... it is like a tick.

    Yes, I agree. It does occur to me that they want their babies born here to accept American citizenship and receive all the benefits of being American, but without the loyalties to this country. Oh course, I am not speaking for everyone. I'm sure some love this country like their own. But, I would say the majority would wave the flag of mexico above the American.

    If you are more proud to be from another country, than you should live there.

    I do agree w/you about those who do not show allegiance to this country - like those who stormed in here and hoisted their Mexican flag above ours, making their demands about their 'rights', etc etc.... and the politically correct allows them to do it........:twisted:



    But in this case, JM was wrong and doesn't seem to have any social skills at all. You don't go to a wedding or any social event and criticize a total stranger, even to the point of telling his GF that she should get him into therapy b/c he's proud of his heritage..... talk about having more nerve than brains!

    would agree but that is because many americans especially on the right are not welcoming to mexicans so their loyalties will more likely lie in mexico...

    if americans want mexicans to be patriots here they need to treat them like neighbors instead of guests.

    Those ILLEGALS are NOT GUESTS HERE and need to go back to Mexico and try again by becoming US citizens the LEGAL WAY! Just like out ancestors did!! Why do you have a problem w/abiding by the law?

    One thing you bleeding heart liberals keep forgetting about or for some strange reason, known only to you, you don't think this is important- when they sneak in here illegally, they are coming here WITHOUT A HEALTH CHECK!:twisted:

    I'm sure it's really no problem at all for Americans. As long as you follow the law upon getting here. I know many Mexican CITIZENS, and they tend to be very hard working decent people, who understand and appreciate what America is and what it has offered them. When you start out in this country a criminal, there will be none of that...they have already stated that they don't even appreciate that we have laws for a reason, and that they must be adhered to just like in any other country...including their own.

    the law is unreasonable and unjust, an open border will allow undocumented workers to be classified as Americans and not criminals...

    So, an ILLEGAL UNDOCUMENTED worker...should be classified as an AMERICAN? But, you agree they should not fly their flag over the American flag....and you think that would put a stop to it, right?? LOL.

    if they felt as if they were Americans and not illegal immigrants yes they would be loyal to the US over Mexico because its a better country than where they came from.

    Mexicans have conquered America. Now they are colonizing the country. They aren't guests and they aren't neighbors. They are the replacement population. I look at Mexicans the same way Crazy Horse viewed Custer.
