Op here. One of the favorite places I lived was a 95% dominican neighborhood in NYC. I am not scared of Spanish, I guess? [/quote]

Way to go to belittle the experience the poster reports.  If only he were more enlightened! If only he wasn't scared of Spanish! Then his property values wouldn't tank and his kids' school wouldn't have gone to shits.  It's all about fear you see.  Not the trash, not the dilapidation, not the overwhelmed schools, not the wave of poor uneducated folks in his neighborhood.  It's all about fear of Spanish. [/quote]

THIS.  Thank you, PP.  OP is a moron and I think I'll just stop responding to OP's posts.  Maybe this asinine thread will die a well-deserved death.[/quote]

It's dying because you have proven, definitively, that Trump supporter's anti-immigrant stance is based on ignorance, gullibility, and racism. You ignore research from across the political spectrum (Brookings, Cato, WSJ, and more) and have nothing to fall back on but slogans and incorrect conventional wisdom.  I think you literally can't understand that other people don't viscerally hate "illegals" as much as you. I've given you an honest chance at coming up with well-supported arguments -- ya got nothing.

I'm not dumb enough to think that elections are won on good policies and facts, and I have no doubt that Bannon & Miller have done a great job turning this into an issue to solify their white base.

But, I have satisfied myself that the DCUM Trumpers have no substance or capability. [/quote]

I think you *literally* can't understand that people have experiences other than you, and make positions based on these experiences.  Why would anyone care what the *research* says when their property values and schools are in tatters?

No one *hates* illegals, I mean I was sort of illegal once. But I never kidded myself that my presence or employment was good for the country.  It was mainly just good for me. I didn't care what it did to the people who were here already.

I don't vote.  But I delight at people like you who prefer to call their opponents names rather than accept that people's experiences are qualitatively different. [/quote]
