(14,077 posts)Those people believe this is and always has been their land. I wouldn't be surprised to find that some of them never even heard of native Americans or Indian Wars.

(9,126 posts)And their European ancestors were hassled as they came into this country. Discrimination against Irish, Italians, Jews, Poles, you name it. I guess their irony meter is quite low.
Why do these fucking people have so much time to harass and hate? Seriously. I don't have time to do any of those things. Who are these people and why do they care so much? Could they be astroturf or organized by a church, hmmmm? I thought churches and Kristians fed the poor and helped the needy, but frankly, I rarely see born agains doing any of that.

And if they are economically disadvantaged and someone says, the immigrants took your job, then they go nuts. They don't see it's the corporate owner that took their job. That's why tptb love it when we fight each other. So gross.

The border wars continue on Fox News as the network repeatedly portrays the immigration issue in partisan terms and likens the influx of immigrants to an invasion or a conspiracy by President Obama to mint new Democratic voters.
In another new escalation of their radical rhetoric, Fox News is now heralding the participation of right-wing militia organizations who say that they will take it upon themselves to patrol the southern borders (funny that they are never concerned with any other border), an activity for which they have no legal authority.
The Fox Nation website is currently featuring an article that promotes a positive impression of violent and racist extra-legal militias that they describe as defenders of the U.S. border saying that

They think they're "defending" something as they destroy it.

(9,126 posts)I also bet they have an undocumented worker do their gardening, clean their houses, cook & wash dishes at their fast food restaurants, grow and pick their food, watch their children and on and on. I also bet most of them aren't born in California, so there's that too.
