Latino immigrant "babies can join a gang, latino babies grow up."

Don't let this absurdity drive immigration reform!
Jim Gilchrist, MINUTEMEN

Latino immigrants "are bottomless feeders."

Don't let this racism drive immigration reform!
Harry Hughes, NEO-NAZIS

Latino immigrants are "disposable, throw-away people."

Don't let this hate drive immigration reform!
Scott Powelson, CCIR

Latino "immigrants are criminals and are importing corruption."

Don't let this fear-mongering drive immigration reform!
Rush Limbaugh

"A full 75% of voting hispanics believe prosperity is the job of the government."

Don't let these lies drive immigration reform!
Ann Coulter

"Immigrants who come to this country instantly have illegitimate children."

Don't let this racism drive immigration reform."
Bill O'Reilly

"If we legalize immigrants who are here they get more on the welfare entitlement train."

Don't let this fear-mongering drive immigration reform!
Neil Cavuto

"Releasing immigrants from detention is dumb."


Don't let this absurdity drive immigration reform!

Don’t let anti-immigrant rhetoric drive the immigration debate. Nativist, racist and fear-mongering hate groups are working hard to drive their narrative on immigration. For years now, anti-immigrant groups have successfully infused their message into the national immigration debate. Influencing local politicians and national figures - with the same talking points: "More punishment", "Militarize the border", "Massive deportations", "More Enforcement." This has resulted in dangerous policies that have led to flagrant violation of human rights.

It is time we put basic immigrant, human rights back in the forefront of our national values and priorities! Let Congress and the President know that to reform immigration they must prioritize "Immigrant rights before enforcement."Add your name and message - make sure your voice is heard!

    I lived in California for 27 years, and I’ve heard all this half-assed

    horseshit there is. These idiots never get any smarter over the

    years, and they always lose. This is exactly what they want, because

    they sell every loss as yet more evidence that they are being

    “suppressed” by people who “can’t see the real truth” that only

    the True Believer in their brand of neo-naziism can really comprehend.

    Keeps the idiots going to think that they’re on a holy mission,

    fighting the forces of ignorance and evil, when they themselves

    are those forces. But then, that’s me talking: I had many

    Latino friends, but no racist or nazi chums. So I’m living proof

    of the deep liberal bias the holy warriors eternally battle against.

    It is so sad to see such fear of the ‘other’. I will pray for these older ‘caucasian’ people like myself. Some of us have human compassion.

    The immigrant debate cannot be solved by people who are ignorant racist, and hateful. We must solve this issue with reason and compassion.

    There is one race ~ the human race. These people in these videos are frightened and uninformed. I am pretty sure their main means of information is Fox News, which likes to fear monger, polarize opinions and keep their viewers ignorant. The Native American is only non-alien in this country.

    First, let me be clear: I’m lilly white, French on my father’s side, Scottish on my mother’s. I simply could not BE more white. My brown-skinned Filipino Mary-Anne jokes that I sometimes glow.


    I’m also a fairly-far-left-leaning liberal/progressive, both socio-politically and theologically. And I live in a place, Napa, California, where you can’t throw a rock without hitting a Mexican… especially during the grape harvest and the crush… but also during pretty much the rest of the year, too. Nearly every one of Mary-Anne’s employees in her restaurant are Latino… some of them barely able to speak English.


    Since me, and pretty much just one or two of the homeless guys living under the bridge, are almost the only Democrats around here (Napa, California is decidedly Republican), needless to say there’s no small amount of racism and other godawful crap aimed at the Hispanics in this town. And it’s shameful. Outrageous. Of course, it’s not as bad as Arizona, but, still.


    Racist whites, though, should read the population statistical predictions for the next 50 to 100 years: We whites will become the minority, and mostly Hispanics will become the majority. Mark my words. Hispanics need only be patient for a couple of generations, and they’ll have whatever they want. And from my observation, all they want are the same things that whites have ever wanted… or blacks… or Asians, or anyone else. We’re all just people, struggling to make it in the world. It matters not, the color of anyone’s skin.


    The only thing that Hispanics need to be careful about during the next century, is not to allow whatever bad that socialism brought them in their home country to swing them too far to the right, as we see in, for example, Miami, with the Cuban population there. Republicans, I’m sorry, are enemies of the poor, and people of color, and the LGBT community, and government programs that really and truly help people… and I could go on and on. Hispanics, as they acquire wealth, need to not become selfish and self-interested to the detriment of others less fortunate than themselves, like so many whites, who then became Republicans, have done in this nation’s history.


    Do not become a people of hatred and oppression. Remember philosopher George Santayana’s words about people who don’t know their history being doomed to repeat it. Never forget the Republicans in, for example, Arizona who, if they had their way, would escort every illegal (and even some legal, if they had their way) Hispanic immgrant to the border, never to return. They don’t care whose lives the turn inside out, or whom they manifestly harm. Do not, America’s Hispanics, forget that history. Do not, over the course of the rest of this century, become members of the oppressive Right wing. The left, in America, is NOTHING like socialism in your home country. There is no danger of anything like what you’ve seen there ever happening here. Stay on the Left. Be humane.


    And welcome to America!

    This kind of rabble-rousing dis-information and disregard for those less fortunate than we breaks my heart and makes me angry. I work with the children of low-income Latino families, and I can tell you that child for child, they are just as smart as any other children, and have as much to offer when they graduate as any other children, given half a chance.

    Yes, because there are people like these working from a huge fear base and spreading so many lies and hate about those they know nothing about, you must address the rights of immigrants so that there is protection in place.
