I believe I can explain this. jonholoi, Bad Ass Outcast, and Worry for GC, are most likely trying to represent themselves as something they are not. I believe they would like to create an image here of anti-illegal immigrant activists, that is quite false.
Several weeks back, a link was posted on this site to vote on an Alipac thread. The ones who posted this link here were from a group opposing us.
The Alipac thread actually contained another link to get to the actual vote.
Our site was overrun with opposition posters many of whom were finally banned from the site. After several weeks of our keeping the YES vote for HR4437 above a majority count, the "Day without an Immigrant" mentioned us as "AntiAmerican" activists on their site.
I believe what you are seeing here is just an elaborate scheme to "pay back" for having been banned from our site, and for our keeping the yes vote above the no vote while they helplessly watched with no remedy.
I believe the ones
trying to cause anger and hatred over here come from one of the two groups - the ones who posted the original link here - or the ones that have the actual vote on their site.
That said, I would like to say that the majority of people who are fighting against ILLEGAL immigration are not against LEGAL immigration at all. The media likes to use "anti-immigrant" or other semantic tricks, to cast us in a hateful light. Our opposition also likes to paint us as being ignorant and racist. This is also a lie. Many of us have immigrant spouses or family members and we are made up of people of all races and backgrounds.
I believe that is what these posters are suddenly here for. You will not be able to reason with them because they are just pretending to hold their hateful positions anyway. Just a word to the wise.
