You sir, have no idea what is happening in the US with illegal immigration.

PS: Btw, I take a small amount of offense at your indirect suggestion (by blithely posting that stupid video) that Americans who support the fence and border control are racist. But then again, it was your suggestion. So what does that say about your inclinations?
Mike,
Rather than dismantle any argument he was making you made personal comments to him regarding what he knows or does not know. If you think the facts are distorted, fine...tell him why and offer what you think are the correct facts. You also took the first offense, and make implications about his inclinations. And that is reading it with an open mind. If I were him then I would consider you fair game to make personal responses back (and he did).

Venamm,
Mike took the first swing at you, but you took the first swing at Scott with your comment that he must be related to Mike. That is not a good way to intruduce yourself to the forum. As for 'kind' - well - I can be quite tenacious when it comes to an argument and some do not view me as 'kind' as a result of that. I do make an effort to keep my discussions about the argument, and not make personal comments, though I will usually respond in kind if personal comments are made to me.

How about everybody knock it off and get back to illegals and fences before we get the thread shut down?

Steve
