This is not my experience. How many farm workers do you actually know,
Paul? I know quite a few and they aren't all illegal aliens.

Wanting your nation to be secure in its borders while wanting to protect the
standard of living of those living here legally is not the definition of a
bigot. I was sure you knew that. Try this for a definition:

bigot: n.
1. One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or
politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
2. A prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his
own

From the 15th century on Old French bigot meant "an excessively devoted or
hypocritical person." Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the
sense "a superstitious hypocrite."

That's what I call a bigot, Paul.
