Illegal aliens are multi-racial or mixed race!

Peoples of Mexico, Central America and South America are Caucasian, Ne9roid and even Mongoloid, or various combinations of all three. The primary racial mix of most Mexicans, for example, seems to be Mestizo - a mix of Native American and Caucasian (most Native Americans seem to be Mongoloid by race, while Spaniards had comprised the white race). Other peoples, say from Europe or Asia, are obviously primarily Caucasian or Mongoloid, respectively.

Technically, "Mexican" is not a race!

The subject of racism when discussing many illegal immigrants is a loose reference to culture or ethnicity - NOT RACE per se!

There are many things about the Latino cultures and ethnicities that clash with American (U. S.) culture. That plays a huge role in the immigration debate.

Every country - including the U.S. - has the right to decide as a whole what kind of people they would like to welcome to their society. Could that lead to "racism"? Maybe! But it's the right of the culture and its people to not like certain other ethnicities or cultures!

The American people certainly have that right!!

You seem to be mistaken. Most people are not racist in this section, we're against illegal immigration regardless of ethnicity, race, religion, etc.

To answer your idiotic question,
I have fair skin and when I tan it fades away.

I'm 100% Scottish and live in Scotland.

My skin is very, very white. Almost transparent haha. My Dad had red hair though, so i got the skin, but not the hair.

So yeah i'd say white.

I'm an American born and bred, who happens to have fairly light skin (white, if you must). And most of my ancestors are European, but I do have some American Indian blood. To some idiots that would make me an Indian, so call it the way you see it.

And personally, since I happen to think an illegal alien is an illegal alien no matter where he/she/it is from I couldn't care less about the shade of their skin.

And you know, the race argument is getting old.

Not sure how to answer this question. I am a "white" American, blonde with blue eyes. Born and raised in this beautiful country. My parents and grandparents were also born here in this country, however, my great grandparents on my fathers side are from Poland and Portugal. My great grandparents on my mothers side are Indian. So what does that make me?

I am not a racist person and believe all people should have equal rights. I am married to a hispanic man who was not born in this country. The subject of illegal immigration in this country is so popular these days with all the Arizona SB1070 getting much attention. I say to let them stay, help them get their residency, let them keep their families and jobs, and register them to pay taxes.
