Look, I'm neither racist nor xenophobic.... believe what you will, I truly don't care. My stance is simple.... you come into this country illegally, you have shown no respect for our laws and you are a criminal and need to be treated as such.
No ifs, no ands, no buts.
If I were to go to any Central American country or even Canada illegally, I would be a criminal and I would expect to be treated as such. Very, very few countries would say, "you broke our laws, but that's ok.... here let's change our language for you, here let's make sure you are comfortable. You came here illegally, but that's ok.... we can choose and pick what laws we want to follow and enforce."
You don't like the immigration laws and how one has to go about getting into this country, change the laws, vote for congressional leaders and presidents that will change the laws....until then, however, illegals are illegals and thus they are criminals who have no respect for our laws or our country.
Millions of people work hard and sacrifice every year (sometimes for years) to become legal citizens and it is a slap in their faces when we say "it's ok come over illegally.... fuck the laws."
I don't care who comes over legally. I am secure in who I am to not care about one's race, ethnicity etc..... but you come over illegally... yes, I will stereotype you, yes, I will treat you less than and yes, I will hold no respect for you, becuase you showed my country and all that I believe and hold dear to mean nothing to you.
You come illegally, you prove you have no respect for our laws and customs and in essence this country.
You come illegally, you can say I'm racist, you can say I xenophobic, that I am a skinheaded, neo Nazistic, KKK member, I don't fucking care.... because basically you showed me you are nothing but a criminal and labelling me because I am calling you on your shit is solely done to make you feel better.
When you look at it from the outside the people calling the names and doing the labelling of law abiding citizens are those that are ok with people who break the law.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
