Yeah I’ve read Orwell, Huxley, and Rand and I have some real problems with your dream world...
I don’t expect us to agree on this, because I recognize that we are coming at the issue with total different philosophies, and that to agree we would basiclly have argue down to our most basic presumptions.
What I really hoped to convince you of, is that a person wanting a reasonably secure boarder does not by default make them a racists.
The way I see it, a person uses such rhetoric when they are more interested in wining the argument, or possibly stopping the argument, than they are in actually solving the problem.
I am not a racist, I don’t have a racists past, and I will not let anyone tell me I should feel guilty, about, or worse pay restitution for, the suffering of others which I have not caused.
