[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1878111, member: 1132"] Did you mean xenophobic as opposed to racist? America is the one nation on earth that embodies that whole "melting pot" thing. I fail to see how being opposed to unregulated entry into the United States automatically means one is racist. Is that theory along the same lines that you can't be racist if you're black? Since you're specifically targeting Republicans as racist, does that mean Democrats can't be racist because they support illegal immigration? I'll take it a step further. When Mexicans in southern Mexico oppose the unregulated immigration of fellow hispanics from central and South America, does that mean they're racist against their own race? Is it possible to be "self-racist"? That's the problem with throwing down the race card. You have to be careful that someone doesn't call you on it with a logic bomb. :) [/QUOTE]
