		<description>After all, what was depicted in the costume was a pretty accurate description of all illegal aliens in this country.

You mean: they&#039;re all black with dreadlocks and wearing a prison suit?

Hits, you&#039;re a racist piece of scum.  Has anybody ever told you that?  

You&#039;re also a coward since I bet you would NEVER make such a comment in the presence of a Black American or an illegal alien; your ass would be trash if it isn&#039;t already!</description>

		<description>The costume also depicts pretty accurately the basic fact that a majority of crimes (normalized for population size) are committed by African Americans

Assuming I bought this, what variables do you belive would explain this?How are you defining crime? Normalized for population size how do African Americans rank in terms of white collor crime?</description>

Anyone capable of swimming or wading either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean should be most welcome as a citizen of this nation. My forebears relied on boats.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;On Noes!! Ice is arresting illegal aliens? HOW DARE THEY!!!
Comment by Roger_Roger &lt;/em&gt;

Ok Loon R2, where in the following quote is the word &quot;illegal&quot;?

&lt;blockquote&gt;Far from doing â€œa credible job,â€ Myersâ€™ time at ICE has seen the agency shift toward a disturbing willingness to retaliate against immigrants who speak up to defend their rights and interests. ICE has arrested individuals for speaking out on everything from immigration reform, to workplace rights, to the right to report crimes without fear of retaliation. Over the summer, ICE officials targeted immigrants in their anti-gang roundups, often arresting legal immigrants without warrants.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Your standards seem awfully low for someone who contributes to Democrats. maybe youâ€™re lying.
Comment by Lefty Patriot &lt;/em&gt;

Of course he is lying.  This is a new strategy by the RNC.  They are sending people out who will claim to be a progressive and then criticize progressives for their opinions.  The RNC has a very large bag of tricks, this is just one of them.

But, they seem to be hitting the bottom of the barrel.  The current batch of trolls are either very transparent or very stupid.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;This is where I want to â€˜opt outâ€™ rather than carry the torch for fussy progressive reactionaries. Iâ€™m a contributer to Demorcratic campaigns, and an armchair activist in other areas, but this is ridiculous. Itâ€™s like asking the CEO of Ford to comment on a warehouse employee in one of their plants. Itâ€™s just a microscopic issue.
Who cares???

No it&#039;s not.  This woman was actively involved in the incident.  She was a judge on a panel who awarded this guy a prize for his costume.  That&#039;s nothing like a CEO and an employee in one of their plants.  If she had no active involvement in the incident, I would see no reason to chastise her.  But she was directly involved.  She saw nothing wrong with what that guy did until the press made an issue out of it.  Then all of a sudden she was &quot;mortified&quot;.  If she was &quot;mortified&quot; in the first place, why didn&#039;t she take the guy aside and tell him to go home and change clothes?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;On Noes!! Ice is arresting illegal aliens? HOW DARE THEY!!!

So R2, you are so virulently anti-immigrant, I suppose you support arresting the employers who knowingly hire undocumented workers.  If you don&#039;t support that, then you are a racist plain and simple.</description>
