Am I missing something?

I have two questions.

1) I see so many answer/questions discussion about people who "see" illegal immigrant. I am just wondering how you know that the person you are seeing is illegal? Do you enjoy some sort of superpower...or do they have some sort of marking? Or are you just assuming since they do not look approaching you and maybe speak a different language then they must be unauthorized?

2) If you are one of these people that think you can "spot" an illegal immigrant...do you assume for one second that this could be viewed as you being racist?


Thanks.

Most of the people I know like that generally hold proof that they are illegal somehow but that doesn't stop the Hispanics from playing the race card and blaming the color of their skin on their shortcomings. Most people newly assume they are illegal. Wonder if the illegals just assume those who stare at them are stupid?

Yes, you are missing something; objectivity when it comes to illegal immigration. As someone have stated, most of the day laborers are illegal aliens. If they can't speak English, then the accidental is close to 90% that they are illegal aliens. There are at least 20 million illegals in our country, and most of them are jammy to spot.

Why do you liberals always try to label those who disagree with you as racist? Can't you of late use logical arguments to get across your point?
Not understanding one word of english is a pretty biddable clue. I think I love you....
Chances are, if they are standing on a corner looking to work for currency only, they are illegal.

Also, if they dont speak english, that is a problem within itself. I dont eat much fast food, but when I do I NEVER get the right decree. If you are in a job where you concordat with americans, you should be required to speak english.

So...if they dont speak english all that well, to be precise their problem.
1. Generally you don't know for sure, but if people are referring to the day laborers outside of home depot, they own a 98.76 percent chance of assuming they are illegal. Those a pretty good probability and I don't hold that against them for assuming those people are illegal.

2. Illegal isn't a race so by definition they can't be racist for assuming that.
1)After a while you can just spot them,it kind of works resembling gaydar,you just know.

2)Are you saying all illegals are one see? That would be the only way that anyone with partially a brain could bring racism into the mix.
Sorry dipstick, wanting to rid ourselves of illegal alien invaders does not qualify as racism.

I have seen illegals who brag around being illegal and what they intend to get away beside, do, how they got here, what their plans are etc.... thats how I know they are illegal.... Thats how I can spot the one's I KNOW are illegal. Oh and yes, ICE be called.
They bought the Acme Immigration Status Check Spy Kit from e-bay.

IF YOU ACT NOW, YOU'LL GET A FREE SWASTIKA FLAG TO HANG ON YOUR PORCH!
Most of the people I know close to that equate Hispanic with illegal and use the illegal issue to claim a prejudice against Hispanics in general.
I hear you! There are people who were born within this country and people who have every right to be here that get looked down upon and treated poorly because of our "forbidden immigrant hunters". Fascinating post. In all the posts I have read, THIS.. this post, is the first post to discuss 'seeing' illegal aliens. Just you.. and you gotta wonder if since you included racism within your analysis of this 'seeing', if you are a racist indeed.

Further, if you had been on this board for a while, you would have discovered the Mexican Americans are fundamentally actively trying to get this mess under control, as well as this Native American. So for a newbe to come on and suggest racism where on earth none exists, is very offensive to me.

But if you speak Border Slang, and it is not Spanish, but a dialect of Spanish, you would quickly discover the against the law aliens seldom speak the local version of Spanish. It marks them clearly. Further, if they are from one of the tribes down south, they are almost always quite short. Much more obvious in identification is the passageway they act. None of that is racial.. none of that have to do with racism. And since the Mexican Nationals are very close to be of exactly the same DNA as the European American of North America, the mere mention of racism tends to identify you as needing a lot more study on the subjects you choose to write on.
Most of the associates that bring up illegals and hispanics in the same group are hispanics themselves. Makes you think eh.

Could U.S. govt go by a canon to variety adjectives risky immigrant become slaves near the picking to buy their freedom?
Freedom would equal U.S. citizenship... Sooo...you think you can break one of your already entrenched laws to satisfy your thirst for blood? Technically, they'd have to repeal a certain amendment or two of the Constitution, which would be disastrous to their political careers...
