The Pollocks I knew before were the most racist people I've ever met. Their hatred wasn't limited to people of different color, oh no. They hated anyone who wasn't a '....ski' But in the end I and a few others got the last laugh. They are still there, sitting on their porches, picking their noses, drinking strohs beer, and not knowing what to do with themselves.

Yup, I think I can safely say I got the last laugh. But, it sounds like you have something. So lets hear it. Thrill us with your intellect.

You too Davdah? Just wanted to add and 150 years later they still live here illegally in their enclaves, too stupid to learn English.

Have a great day wherever and whatever hole you crawled out from.

I cannot tell you how disappointed that I am in your racial comment to Beverly. This is the first time on this board that I have seen any member hurl a derogatory racial name at another.

and then comback and say how do you like it????

undocumented illegals is not a racial matter. and trying to mix these issues will not work.

This is really bad

deleted. I'm outtta here

to that racist iperson...EET = Eastern European "hole in the hedge" (a British term, look it up)

Every person should get on their knees in front of their computer screens and bow to the perfect Beverly. The one person in the whole world that GOD made absolutely perfect. She has never made a mistake. No one in her family has ever made a mistake. They are absolutely perfect.

You have to be the rudest, self-centered, self-important person that I have ever run across.

What kind of life do you have? You sound pathetic.
I walk into places and hear these older people talking about Mexicans. At least that is what they call all Spanish speaking people. I use Mexican but they use illegals. It amazes me how many people talk about something they don't have a clue about. They put their own spin on things and take that as the gospel.

As far as khanndice's post about people knowing more than one language and American's not speaking good English, she is absolutely right. Davdah, you can't blame that on illegals. It truly depends on which part of the country you live in. Different parts speak English in different ways. The south uses the words like ain't and ya'll. The north uses words like pop and soda. Most of them don't even know what grits are. In some parts, blacks have their own type of English they speak. I have had a lot of Spanish speaking people tell me that they can understands people from the north, better than from the south. The English most of them use is the correct and proper form. I will not attack someone on the race, but Beverly you can't keep throwing your remarks around and not expect someone to attack back. After all you are attacking anyone who speaks different than you. I don't take anything said in these post personally, but I can't believe how much hatred as festered in this country. Beverly, you can blame the illegals, but those illegals didn't vote the politicians in office. In fact, if you are older, you have voted more times than most people. So, you and others like you are responsible for the shape of this country. After all those of us new to this voting arena, haven't voted for all of these jackasses. So take you share of the responsibility. As far as traveling to other parts of the world to see how they live, it is very small minded of you to talk about and condemn people from other places without knowing anything about them.

Language, language. Well, it just so happens that if you take someone from northern Mexico and have them talk to someone from the deep south of Mexico you will have some misunderstandings too. Beside making fun of each other's dialects it goes to show the changing of language over distance. Who blaimed illegals for the southern draw? Ain't ain't a word, is it?

If someone wants to use the word ain't, I guess it is a word. It is in the dictionary. If you are on AOL, click edit, dictionary, and type ain't. I don't recall the people in the U.S. complaining about the different types of Spanish, Mexicans use. They just complain about the fact they use Spanish at all. Most complain because they were to lazy to take a second language when they had the chance.

I think any person who can speak more than one language ought to be applauded. Especially people who have learned our language as their second language. I find it commendable that they would take the time to learn. After listening to some people on this site and others, I am beginning to ask myself why does this country still consider itself a great country.
If this country does not stand together, then it will fall. That includes every person (legal or illegal) with their feet firmly planted in this country. This path that people are pursuing is dividing this nation. The problem with that is we are creating enemies. Not just enemies abroad, but enemies right here. In the years to come those citizen babies will be adults. Most of the people pissing and moaning right now will be dead. That leaves the rest of us to clean up the mess and deal with the hate that has been festering. Those children, that will be left, will remember what is being done to them. They will never forget how their country turned on them. They will not forget how people in this country hated them. It is hate. A child never ask to be born. God handles that. So, when you spew your venom, remember that is one of God's children and you will have to answer for what you have done.

I understand the need most people feel about protecting this country. If anyone really wanted to protect and build this country, they would work for real, positive solutions. Taking into consideration the future of our children and grandchildren. Those children will be living in a country were these children of illegals are adults. The roles will be reversed. Is that what you wish for the children of this country?

Most times its out of necessity. There are any number of 'Americans' who are living in foreign countries and they learn the lingo too.

During war our soldiers would learn some of the native language during the various campaigns.

There are some people who have lived here for over 20 years and can't carry a conversation. More often than not its due to choice.

For anyone who wants to get ahead in any country you have to speak the language of the country. This country's economic and financial language is English. I think that should apply to protesters too. If they want their message heard, speaka the language. Preaching to the choir is useless.
