Has anyone else seen this...?

Is it just me or does it seem like a fair amount of the "questions" posed in the Immigration section in MyTend.com seem to be motivated by racial bias, stereotyping or ignorance-driven fear of the unknown? I've seen some pretty blatantly racist comments, and Yahoo doesn't even pull these questions, despite the fat these questions are in clear violation of MyTend.com Terms Of Use Policies? Although I am not, I can respect and understand being opposed to illegal immigration, but racism or racially derogatory stereotyping is unacceptable? Why is this going on, un-noticed? Or are there that many racists who just don't care on Yahoo?

Answer:
So you are in Favor of ILLEGAL immigration? You don't mind people coming into this country illegally and placing a burden on our economic, education, and health care systems? You don't mind when they openly march in defiance of our laws and say "we're here, get used to it!" It doesn't bother you that illegal immigration causes an increase in all types of crime in border areas? If you come here legally, fine. Enjoy and good luck to you. But if you sneak in and then demand all the benefits of legal citizens, I have a HUGE problem with that. People are fed up with paying the tab for people who have no business being here in the first place. And your argument about people being racist, well, that goes both ways buddy. I have been called a lot of things for post's that had no racist comments in them, just like this one. For all the good the Internet does, it also allows a forum for people to put their ignorance on public display.
I'm not racist.I own a black & white TV and my crap is brown.
Gosh, there are several BLATANT violators, who say the most vile epithets about Mexican people, and what is so disgusting is they get like 10 thumbs UP...

Oh but to say it is about race or culture war, NEVER.Yeah right, give me a break.
The reason is there are WAAYYY to many teenyboppers and uneducated knuckleheads on this forum. They have no brains and no ability to think through anthing logically.
You shouldn't come to the immigration section if you don't want to see how people really feel about the issues.
Take a good hard look at the origin of these types of questions, there is a racial commonality among them.
First of all, anti-illegals are NOT racist and our comments have not violated any of the rules! Our comments are totally acceptable and are based on facts, not emotion!

I have seen VERY FEW "racially biased" statements on Yahoo, except from the pro-illegals. The pro-illegals seem to constantly forget that illegal immigration is NOT A RACIST ISSUE! IT IS ABOUT OUR LAWS!!! They are breaking the rules when they pull our the race card and stat in with the name calling!

I don't care WHERE the illegal alien criminals, that are breaking our laws, come from. If they are here ILLEGALLY, they are criminals and shouldn't be here.

Don't go there with the racism comments! You are totally wrong! WHAT PART OF ILLEGAL DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND!
I agree with you that many racists violate the terms of service, but I think that Yahoo may be bending the rules in order to show the rubes for what they are. Even the term "illegal" immigration is questionable and reflects political bias. Should we refer to anyone who travels at faster than the speed limit as an "illegal driver?"
funny that you only see racist comments from people opposed to illegal immigration.. when there are plenty if not more racist comments towards people against illegal immigration- don't be so one sided.. look at everything from both perspectives
If you think there is racists on here go to You Tube and search under Aztec Al Qaeda or anti-illegal immigration .
If you look up LaRaza and MEChA you'll find out just how the illegals feel about American citizens . Wake up America and see what is really happening in this country in the Southwest .
If you don't believe your eyes ask someone living on the US border .
Well I'm sure this one will get pulled.White people took this land from the American Indian. Should i prepare for a Mexican invasion. Or has it actually already started?
Or are there that many racists who just don't care on Yahoo?

I believe there are.
In my travels I talk with many people of all races and never have I seen so much blatant racism as there is in Yahoo Politics section. Even worse is the even higher amount of masked racism. Referring to the word "illegal" or "criminals" when discussing immigrants who have only broken one law by coming across the border. These same "Americans" are at home smoking weed or drinking underage or driving without licenses or speeding around town on a daily basis. The fact is, American citizens break more laws then anybody else and hypocritically point fingers at other people who look or speak a little differently.

These same "Americans" forget that they too are the descendants of illegal immigrant law breakers who came from Europe. The founders of this country were immigrants running away from England and King George III.

I agree with you. How can they let these people get away with saying these things. People to know how to anwer a simple question so they bust out the racism. They are scared and Yahoo is nothing much about it, i see it everywhere and I report it.

Also, their was a question where someone asked if they can leagly change their name (not on Yahoo, in real life) and it was under the IMMIGRATION category and I went in and responded in a question. . ."but what does this have to do with immigration?" the next couple of days I get an e-mail from Yahoo saying I violated something and that my answer was deleted, and I know it was some sort of mistake.
Yes, of course we have. There is a common thread of screaming "being against illegal immigration does not mean we are racist".. but let one person use a derogatory term to describe Mexicans and watch the thumbs up... they don't care because there is anonymity also known as cowardice.
Absolutely! I can't tell you how many anti white comments i've read on here from the pro illegals. Are you as angry as I about it? I bet not.
