Somebody mentioned illegal immigrants on another thread, and that reminded me of this article. It's pretty interesting I thought.

I love this quote "You are guilty of ethnic cleansing in this community! You are going against my community!" said the Rev. Miguel Rivera of the National Coalition of Latino Clergy."

Guilty of ethnic cleansing? We're going to use the same term to describe legislation making it harder for illegal aliens to work as Milosevic's killing fields of the Balkan states of Bosnia, Croatia and Kosovo? The funny part is, Milosevic actually went to trial in the Hague for his crimes and died before a guilty verdict could be pronounced. Apparently Miguel Rivera not only thinks the two scenarios are one in the same but is pronouncing a guilty verdict without trial. Milosevic never even got the official branding of war criminal for ethnic cleansing. Oklahoma deserves that honor.

When are spokespersons of the "hispanic community" going to realize how much an ass of themselves they make with these comments? Americans are never going to be sympathetic to their causes with these assinine statements.
