ShaniFaye, let me explain my read on what you say, and you can point out where I am misreading you.
I know you add after the fact that you only object to illegal Hispanic immigrants. But I don't see anything based on fact in your stance that it's just the illegal ones having this negative impact on your area. I know you think it's only the illegals who "move a ton of guys into a house and ruin it because they just don't care." I just don't see any actual basis for that.

To you and others who use the "I only object to illegal immigrants" defense, I ask you to answer honestly: Do you know who's illegal and who's not? It seems to me it's an easy way to deflect accusations of bigotry. You object to all people who are here illegally! It's just a coincidence you only talk about Hispanic immigrants. Talking about illegal immigration is code for attacking Hispanics. I think some people are honestly afraid a brown wave is going to drown white America. I think other people are racist. I think yet others are just easily manipulated, and yet more are just people who look for someone to blame.

Here near Philadelphia, there's a very clear dividing line where Philadelphia county ends, at Cheltenham Avenue. One one side is a slum, on another is a rapidly improving area. It has a great deal to do with the fact that the counties spend different amounts of money and make different efforts to improve, but it's also not a coincidence that there is a very large Korean immigrant population in the nicer neighborhood. They moved in and worked hard to improve the area. They don't embrace US culture: the signs are in Korean and it's an insular community. But they aren't trying to take over America; they're just trying to get their piece of the American dream.
