I'm not for more la migra laws either, enforce what already exists. They can quit cutting the social funding that forces states to take a hardliner approach and is pissing off the Hispanics too.

well this could actually happen, have you seen those protests? "whites get off our continent" "go back to europe" and calling texas and california "aztlan" their ancestral homeland. Things could very quickly reach a boiling point. Also it was estimated were those counties along the border another state, they would rank the lowest in education and healthcare services. (all of which can be obtained free by illegal immigrants)

I have not problem with peaceful demonstrations but I will be a very upset Latino woman if violence and riots start.
I believe is a problem with the open borders, but this is not limited to our south border but also the north, we have incredible problems with the smuggling of Chinese and slavery, people have not idea how bad the Chinese immigration is about

If you come here legally because you want to contribute, because you are willing to work hard to provide a better life for your family, I don't think anyone could argue with that, including myself. I think that is admirable. But when you illegally enter the country, abuse the public systems, defraud our tax payers and then expect to be treated with dignity & equality, it ain't gonna happen. I think that all of the border jumping illegals are a disgrace and cast shame upon the good people who go through the process, learn the language and work hard to become a citizen the right way.
It's not just illegal immigrants you guys have a problem with it's immigrants in general. You may not want to admit it but when you get down to it thats the root issue. You don't like foreigners and you want to control the flow of foreigners so that only those you deem suitably nonforeign gain access. Call a spade a spade.

From what I understand there's also quite a lot of tension between African-American communities and Latino communities in some areas due to socio-economic differences and the resentment this creates. Maybe this could also be a source of future civil unrest?

Funny the three leaders are going to get together in Cancun, to discuss the norther alliance and immigration.
I wonder what else is in the agenda.
The merger has been in quiet development for some time, without due democratic process.
