Its all well and good for one to cleverly hide prejudice behind the anonymity of a blog, but intelligent discussion usually precludes generalizations. I’d put those animals on the video behind bars for 20 years without a second’s hesitation, but ignorance and hatred will never solve this issue.

P.S. 20 years in prison? Fierce.
aris pon 08 Apr 2008 at 9:40 pm 5I didnt say that their legal status is irrelevant. I commented on the previous poster who ASSUMED what these kids’ status was.
Their legal status is very relevant. I agree with you on that.
Richon 08 Apr 2008 at 10:37 pm 6Fair enough, Aris. I (obviously) misread your comment.
That said, given the sheer number of illegal aliens in this country, I don’t know why it isn’t fair to wonder aloud as to their status. Now, perhaps Kishke asserted more than wondered, but to broadly imply that those who do so are ignorant and hateful seems to bely the same prejudice and generalizations you were decrying.
As always, I could be right.
P.S. Kishke, sorry about labeling you a he/she. That was uncalled for.
