WRONG There are several reasons why people hate immigrants and socialism isn't one of them. Try some of the following reasons: - They're taking our jobs - Why don't they dress like us? Must they wear those turbans? - They have too many children. - They're all on welfare. - They are ignorant. - They are dirty. - They are criminals. - Why don't they speak English? - They come here and think they own the place. I can go on and on but unfortunately, I am pressed for time. Vince PS - The above are not my views, they are simply comments you will hear in any country that experiences immigration. You do not just hear these comments in the US and Canada. You will hear them in Iran, Turkey, Italy, France....everywhere. We are NOT racist, it is simply human nature to respond in this way.
