Read the definition of bigot and then explain how the sentence above
doesn't fit that definition, Hans.
Bigot (n.) One whose attitude or behavior expresses
intolerance, as because of race, religion, politics, etc.
(Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dictionary)
By the way, "bigoted" is spelled with a single "g."
Read my lips: Race is irrelevant.
Repeating that is not going to change anything, Hans. Race issues are
everywhere in this country today and are not going to go away simply
because
you want to bury your head in the sand and act like they don't exist.
While we're discussing definitions (and since you like to throw the word
"racism" around so much).
Racism (n.) An irrational belief or advocacy of the
superiority of a given group, people, or nation, usu.
ones own, on the basis of racial differences having
no scientific validity.
(Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dictionary)
Kindly show me where I've expressed a belief in or advocated the
superiority of a group in this discussion, Hans. Simply discussing a
race-related issue in a newsgroup is not racism. As such, your charge of
racism is as patently false as your charge of bigotry.

You have repeatedly heralded American workers at the expense of the
immigrant population, Dwight--and irrationally so I might add. As a last
word on this topic--because you seem incapable of a well-rounded discussion
on it, let me say that the situation as it exists for *everyone*--not just
employees but the corporations alike, in this country purely sucks.
I say there's more likelihood that an non-US born person will do a crappy
job; and you say there's more likelihood that a US-born person will do a
crappy job. That given, Dwight, then *WHY* praytell are there so many
non-US born people doing the jobs? You want to say it's "because of wages."
DUH!!!!! I am speaking from the whole picture. We can all stand around all
we want and say, "if the wages were raised, US-born people would do the
jobs." It ain't gonna happen any time soon.
You have been the one in this exchange that has been unreasonable, over
judgmental, spiteful, hateful and quite impatient with the views of
others--so much so that the gist of your whole contribution has been to
condemn the way others believe while offering no real constructive
contribution of your own. Have you offered any solutions? Have you
reasoned any explanations for it being the way it is? Have you once, just
once even *tried* to understand anything anyone else is saying? NO. You
have done nothing but tell me that I think Americans are garbage.
I have provided clear reasons for why I believe the statistics would show
that US-born people would be less likely to perform the jobs that a current
immigrant population will and are performing. You've rebutted with no
evidence to the contrary of what I am saying. You have rebutted also with
nothing but indignation and name calling--or very near it--but haven't
provided anything substantial to tell me that those news reports, radio
talk-shows, news magazine shows, Congress, and real-life conversations I've
been involved with pertaining to this issue, don't exist.
Like I said, we can be indignant all we want. But it won't change what's
going on. We can whine all we want. But it won't change what's going on.
All we can do is be mindful of the situation as it is and create
contingencies for ourselves as we things get too close to home and we start
being threatened. You act like I've never once been affected by the
situation, Dwight. And, I have--a few times. But, each time I have done
what I had to do to get through it. And, starting over again is not beyond
me. It's become a sporting event for me now.
Take your righteousness and shove it. Right where the sun don't shine.
But, before you do...why don't *you* think of some constructive ways to deal
with the situation instead of all the whining and finger pointing you've
been doing.
