(31,261 posts)look toward racists as maybe having been right. You can say that people who this affect are racist to begin with and would not have changed, but that view is somewhat simplistic. When I read earlier today that the woman was murdered, my first thought was to hope that the murderer was not a Black or Hispanic person. The reality is that the murder by an undocumented immigrant sets back immigration reform mightily, because now we have to wade through the smoke screens republicans throw up, and if the wonan' dad become like the dad of the woman who was accidentally shot and killed by an undocumented immigrant in San Francisco, we will be seeing the woman's picture opposing any attempt at sane immigration debate. That is simply the reality at this moment, ignoring it does not make it go away.
