There are undoubtedly racists around, but the mere fact of not wanting your countries immigration laws massively violated doesn't make you one.
If you lie with dogs...
So, you're saying that because people who hate hispanics don't want a massive violation of the immigration laws, anyone who doesn't want a massive violation of the immigration laws, must hate hispanics. Why do you make an argument which is just on the face of it incorrect? How do you conclude that anyone who wants the country to have the right to regulate immigration must be a racist?
It is self-evident that every country has the right to regulate immigration. It's ludicrous to say that a country that wishes to have immigration laws is acting immorally. Most countries have such laws. The difference is that more people seem to wish to come here and, so, violate them.
