I am shocked at how many posts are just for John W Price.
Well, enough already.
This is one black man who the black community is probably embarrassed to have speaking for him anyways.
It just gave a lot of white people something to complain about if you ask me. Just another excuse to further push the racist agenda and point fingers at black people.
He is one person. One stupid person. And you are glorifying him by all this attention.
Don't make it seem like it was the entire black community who said these things.
The illegal immigration issue is complex.
It is not just people jumping across borders or rivers like some keep trying to say.
45% of all immigrants on Visa’s will allow their VISA to lapse which will then render them “illegal”.
So I ask the people who keep saying “I want to see papers on all people to see if they are legal or not”, you better start asking EVERYONE who lives in AMERICA regardless of their color. Brown is NOT the only color immigrants come in these days.
VISA’s are granted to people that are from Canada (WHITE PEOPLE), England (WHITE PEOPLE), France (WHITE PEOPLE), Ireland (WHITE PEOPLE), Scotland(WHITE PEOPLE), etc, etc.
Can you spot the illegals that are here from VISA overstays? (Thank you onyx for another view on the topic).
You can NOT just address Hispanics when you speak of illegal immigration. You MUST address ALL people or it IS racist.
So to the person who keeps saying they will check people for their papers, you better be ready to be carding each and every person who is white, brown, yellow, purple or green.
MY point is illegal immigration and race have nothing to do together and I hate it when people lump the 2 together.

The national immigration debate is driving up the number of hate groups in the country and fueling attacks against Hispanics, according to a report released today by a civil rights group.

A man holds a sign that translates, "we are not illegals", during one of several May Day marches and rallies in southern California and in at least 75 cities nationwide to press for immigrant and labor rights on May 1, 2007 in Los Angeles, California. The protest is expected to be smaller than the May 1, 2006 march that drew more than 650,000 protesters, the largest turnout in Los Angeles history when large numbers of illegal immigrants carrying the flags of both the US and their countries of origin sparked an anti-immigrant rights backlash among conservatives. Some of the anger that motivated protesters in 2006 was reportedly lessened as Congress failed to pass legislation that would have criminalized illegal immigrants and toughened US-Mexico border enforcement.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate crimes, said that the number of hate groups in the country rose last year to 888, up from 844 in 2006 and 602 in 2000.
The report "The Year in Hate" said the increase was fueled by anti-immigration rhetoric. Among the groups listed by SPLC as an organization based on hate is the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a well-known advocacy group whose leaders have testified before Congress about ending illegal immigration and restricting legal immigration.
"We've seen a remarkable growth in hate groups in the last six or seven years and it seems anecdotally clear that the growth is driven by the immigration debate in this county," said Mark Potok, the director of the center's Intelligence Project. "Virtually all the old line hate groups have turned their attention almost entirely to illegal immigration."
The center said that Hispanics are feeling the brunt of the anti-immigration anger.
According to the FBI, 819 people were victims of anti-Hispanic hate crimes in 2006, the latest year for which statistics are available, up from 763 in 2000 and 595 in 2003.
FAIR, which says it has 250,000 members, rejected the hate label.
"There is no level of hate crime that is acceptable -- period," said Bob Dane, the group's spokesman.
