Rig--

I'm sure there are some Hispanic families who oppose illegal immigration. However:

1) This fact supports my contention that, as generations go by, all immmigrants eventually assimilate. Therefore the prediction that the current Hispanic wave is a long-term threat to the US is wrong.

2) Though some Hispanics may be against illlegal immigrants, most legal Hispanics see the mean-spirited attempts to make life difficult for illegal immigrants as aimed at all Hispanics, not just illegals. It pushes them further away from Republicans, whom they see as the ringleaders in the campaign against illegals, and towards Democrats--if the Democrats offer a path to citizenship for illegals. And they will.

Hence the title of this thread.
