    Wrong as usual. The chief beneficiaries of Affirmative action are caucasian females and African American Females.Affirmative action hasn't done anything for African American males in years.

    You're putting words in my mouth. Nowhere in that quote you quoted did I ever mention "males".

    Blah!! Let's get on with applying solutions to the problems, and stop playing the insipid blame game.

    Obama has been doing things right in my view. And surely, the GOP could have done more good themselves... but they wouldn't. The record is clear.

    What you said (the meaning of what you said and even how you phrased it), was quite racist.

    I'm not buying your BS.

    Of course. You express your views, as one who can't bring themselves to understand that Blacks struggle for reasons which stem from this nation's history and heritage.

    White Americans are HISTORICALLY (not of the ancient type) complicit in shaping the circumstances we know exist. Not that YOU are to blame per se... but that what America BECAME (even by design), has been less than fair and equitable to those that are descendants of chattel slavery; that is, slavery has actually ended slowly, incrementally over the course of many hundreds of years. And clearly, some people WISH they could be rid of Blacks TODAY... though the thought of that is now as un-American as cursing our Constitution.

    So what. Legal immigration is something we've had here, since we began. People come, they work and they contribute to society. There is nothing WRONG with that.

    Let me get this straight: in your mind, complaining about blacks not having jobs must mean you must logically be in favor of blacks getting jobs without earning them or else you are a hypocrite?

    Please straighten out your logic.

    Funny how all the non-whites on this planet seem to be going to where the whites are.

    I don't see anyone immigrating en masse to Africa.

    But then again in my line of work most of the non-whites are very good at one thing, outbreeding everyone else.

    Illegals are cutting line in front of folks doing it the right way. Where is your moral compass?

    While true, it is mostly irrelevant. We have a great many illegals living in the country from previous years of net immigration, so the problem of illegal immigration is still very real, not to mention all of the legal immigration.

    Here's a chart showing immigrants as a percentage of the population:

    http://www.migrationpolicy.org/programs/data-hub/charts/immigrant-population-over-time

    This shows that immigrants as a percentage of the population is very substantial, and is not going down.

    So, you've got at least 11 million illegals, and the number is much higher than that by some estimates, and then another 30 or 40 million legal immigrants.

    The icing on the cake is that you are pushing for amnesty, which will net you millions of new voters who lean democrat.

    Your graphs are clearly wrong as in 1860 practically 100% of the population were immigrants

    No it isn't irrelevant, when talking about open borders we do not have them, and our border security is tighter now than at any other point in out history. On top of this in more recent years more illegal immigrants have been leaving the country than coming in. That 11 million you mentioned was over 12 million not long ago

    I meant irrelevant to the larger issue of illegal immigration, in terms of how many are already here.

    Also, I'd point out that it is difficult to figure out what that number currently is (net illegal immigration), because the economy has improved since the period you are mentioning.Legal immigration is now positive again, which means there's a decent chance the number of illegals has also gone up. Even if it hasn't gone up, there are still at least 11 million illegals in the country, which is a huge number, not to mention the fact that there is credible evidence to suggest the number is much higher.

    http://www.steinreport.com/BearStearnsStudy.pdf

    This study, while conducted in 2005, is still relevant as it places the estimated starting number of illegals at potentially twice what Pew and the Census did. I urge you to read the report if you are interested.

    I don't know how secure the border is in absolute terms, but you are correct in suggesting that it is more secure than it was in previous years.

    Says the guy who routinely blames guns for what a vanishingly small number of people do with them. Never-the-less, blame is secondary to uncovering the problem and fixing it. Some of which is assessing what works and what doesn't and the motives of people who continue to espouse solutions that either don't work or are the moral equivalent of burning down the barn to get rid of rats. We now have the lowest worker participation rate since the Great Depression and your allies keep telling me how great this economy is. And yet more and more people are working two and three part time jobs in order to make what one full time job used to pay and all the left talks about is making it worse. Sadly trmp isn't much better.

    For them, economic performance is based on who they are arguing with. If they're feeling particularly altruistic and sympathetic, they'll criticize the economy and talk about how poor people are, but when they argue with right-wingers, all of those comments miraculously disappear lol.

    So going by "your" definition, children born in the US to illegal or legal immigrants are not immigrants contrary to what many of "you" have been saying. I'm glad that's been cleared up. Bye!.

    You are putting words in my mouth. Yes, if you were born here, you are not an immigrant. I have my issues with birthright citizenship, but up to the point at which that changes (if it ever does), anyone born here is NOT technically an immigrant. The stats all use that definition, so don't get yourself too confused.

    LMAO.

    Man, we don't agree on much of anything, least of all racial issues, but you are easily one of the funniest posters on here!

    Seems like a distinction without a difference. Personally I don't support illegal immigration and recognize it as a problem. You can't have a stable country where people are pouring in unchecked. If we are overrun by immigrants that would bankrupt the country. I don't support illegal immigration on principle because illegals are breaking the law. However we've got to find a sensible solution to this problem. I don't think Trump's policies are going to help. I also recognize that there is a racist element to opposition to illegal immigrants. There is a fixation on brown-skinned Hispanics coming here illegally even though a lot of Europeans are overstaying their visas and here illegally. Finding a solution that does not involve racist discrimination is important.

    Where is your sense of historical perspective?

    This is a nation of immigrants. What?! Are you un-American?

    That's foolishness.

    Guns are fine; the manner in which they are 'integrated' into this society, isn't so good at all.

    Can't you see it's time to reform that aspect?
