[QUOTE="HiredHand, post: 4215880, member: 2469"] You don’t know what you’re talking about. Those traditional “rational” characteristics like barring people from the Asiatic zone, creating a quota system that set limits to the number of immigrants allowed in to 3% of the foreign born population from each nationality, that were living in the US with exceptions for the Western hemisphere, and literacy. They codified into law the racism that existed in that time period. These laws were meant to preserve the majority white population. Later there were some changes, but no doubt in anyone’s mind that many of these “rational” characteristics still remain or at least the intentions to this day. You can all go on calling for “limited immigration”, calling “illegals” crossing the “open” border “invaders”, talk about “preserving [your] culture”; but all of that only makes other rational people see that you have a hatred towards other human beings. Because all of that rhetoric is used to dehumanize the people who are trying to immigrate into this country or people that are coming here to work. [/QUOTE]
