Is it a racial thing?

 

Because they are supposedly stealing Americans Jobs?

 

Or is it because of how poor most are?

 

I ask this because I just got back from College, and they were having a school back pack give away. Just bring your kids and they get a back pack with school supplies.

I am not being racist here, just stating what I saw. There were over 1,000 people. Some there as early as 3 a.m. Most were Latin American, maybe 20 percent were African American, and 5 percent were white trash type people. I am white, so do not ban me. They were poor white people I should say maybe.

They stood in line all night and day ( until 2 pm) to get a cheap back pack with 5 dollars in school supplies in them. If you were too far back in line, you got one of those cheap string bags with Pencils and notebooks in them.

Anyways. It made me think. Look at all these poor people in America willing to go through all this hassle for 15 dollars in back to school gear. They are mostly Latin Americans!

I guess that would be my main concern. I do not care about Race or stealing my jobs. Most of the jobs are ones I would not do anyways. And all you Americans know it! We are too lazy to do them.

What do you think?

thats a loaded question. it implies that if someone is anti-illegal immigration then they are anti immigrant. when in fact the vast majority of anti-illegal immagration proponents are very much pro-legal immigration.

people are anti-illegal immigration largely because that groups tends to avoid any sort of assimilation, thereby largely segragating themselves from the rest of society. Not learning the language is another part of it. 

Also illegal aliens tend to be very poor and uneducated, so its not bringing the best, or even the average skillsets and minds to the country.

Also since they dont have many working qualifactions or specific skills they take low skill jobs at even lower pay, thereby forcing the citizens out of said job, by A) taking the job and B) artificially lowering the market wage for the job and forcing legal citizens out.

Also illegals tend to commit crimes at a higher rate than legal citizens
