Didn't the Chinese Americans also basically build the railways?

How can americans, of all people from all nations on this planet, be so against immigration? They do realise that their country is like 5 minutes old right?

Don't know if you saw the video of that native American guy berating some anti-immigration protestors a while back. Basically told them they were all immigrants themselves and they all slunk off pretty sheepishly. Sometimes the hypocrisy is just too blatant to ignore, I guess!

I'm sure if you went to some BNP or other far right leaning belief supporters twitter accounts you'd quickly discover this isn't just limited to Americans, but idiots all over with access to the internet.

This wasn't designed to turn into a USA vs ROW debate.

DH is quite right, I'm sure there is just as much right wing rhetoric taking place in British affiliated Twitter accounts, however for this specific example (Cinco De Mayo), this isn't something that the UK celebrates.

It was going to happen, though. I'm staying out of it now.

Tbh, and nothing against you, but why expose people to this? Not arguing here man, just want to know why you wanna show people racist tweets to get upset about?

I don't care about it, I'm not bothered by racism anymore. Only institutionalized racism. Casual racism is just stupidity and stupidity should be ignored. You can't argue against racism and stupidity, just let it be. Racism will die out sooner or later.

Racists to me are like classic rock. Cheesy, played out, so a thing of the past. Where you can't believe that people are still into it.

The irony being esp. that most Americans think it's the Mexican Day of Independence, when in fact it's when Mexican forces defeated the French who were trying to set up a supply line to the Confederates during the American Civil War.
