So going off how Evan was making references to dumb republicans, or maybe he's advocating them, but I found out, or heard something dumb today ( Read more... )

i would hope you know me well enough to realize i was being facetious

i think the right-wing stance on immigration is abhorrent, especially coming from some of the Republican candidates (Tancredo is all but declaring a White vs. Everyone Else race war and his speeches sound like he does nothing but watch Apocalypto in his spare time, Ron Paul wants to get the national guard to round up every illegal and bus them all back across the border... because every other forced racial relocation in the history of the world has gone SO WELL, etc.).

essentially the point i was trying to get across is the only influence illegal mexican immigrants really did to affect anyone's life is offer a second language option... something a lot of LEGAL IMMIGRANTS would probably appreciate.

every other argument i've heard is inherently flawed, my favorite being the "illegal immigrant drunk driver situation." drunk drivers suck, but if they're illegal immigrants and/or mexican in heritage it has no impact on their driving ability or blood alcohol content, it's an incidental status without any correlation. the laws are unnecessarily paranoid, borderline racist, and supported by not-so-borderline racists under the justification that LAW IS EVERYTHING IF IT IS ILLEGAL IT IS AGAINST THE BIBLE BLAH BLAH BLAH I STILL SPEED IN SCHOOL ZONES BUT THOSE DAMN ILLEGALS CAN GET OUTTA MAH COUNTREH

obviously i feel strongly on the topic

i just think dumb assholes should get used to pressing 1 for english if they somehow weren't already and move on with forcing morality down the throats of some other minority group

I was researching Mexico on wikipedia last night. IT was interesting to see what they've overcome in their own country. we may make assumptions (even I made a generalization yesterday about how they don't take care of their phone contracts as much as we do, but that was bad of me and my boyfriend verbally corrected me), but man they're fucking on the ball. Granted they had to progress in the 1900s through dictatorship and murder, but they are more liberal than us. they provide written documents in others languages for the different people.

Oh and a mexican invented the contraceptive pill.

Bitches.

I don't know ... I learned an awful lot from dating a guy who lived in Mexico City ... like their car registration system ... which is nonexistent ... one of the most fucked up things I've ever heard of ... bunches of stolen cars floating around everywhere ... corrupt government ... like what government isn't corrupt, right? But still ...
I'd say stay away from Wikipedia to conduct research!
But you're saying being extremely liberal is a good thing?
Maybe I just don't know what you guys are talking about ...
