I am/was a supporter of the DACA program. I do not opine as to whether its creation by executive order was unconstitutional. I hope legislation will pass establishing DACA by statute, and if not, I hope Trump will reinstate it by executive order. The Dreamers that came forward and signed on deserve to stay.

But I keep hearing statements that the rescission of the DACA executive order is racist. Are not white European dreamers affected by the DACA rescission? Moreover, my quick internet research shows that a large percentage of Hispanics, including those in the U.S., are white/Caucasian and identify as white. Others are descended from Mongoloids, and still others are a mix between European and indigenous peoples. The U.S. census does not list Hispanics or Latinos as a race identifier.

Thus, many of the Dreamers are white. How then is their removal racist? Is the DACA rescission racist if it affects whites and non-whites the same? Or is it racist because it affects many non-whites?

It is "racist" because leftists disagree with it

Nothing more nothing less

Does it specify a race in the language?

Sounds racist that progressives would assume that all dreamers are Mexican

Americans are stupid and think all Mexicans look like Pedro the yard man.

In reality, there is a wealthy European ruling class made up of white people and some asians.

The only thing racist about the Mexican immigration issue is the Mexican whites encouraging the Indian majority to leave.

It's Apartheid, pure and simple.

It's racist if you are a Democrat. It's good common sense if you care about immigration policy in this country.

Progs are well trained to call anything they don't like "hate speech" or "racists" or some other phobia or ism.

Literally all they have since they can't argue on facts or knowledge.

That's why.

If it only applied to immigrants that entered the country illegally from Mexico and were Mexican you might have something to stand on. However, this applies to anyone, irrespective of race, that immigrants to this country illegally.

That's because it's not an opinion.
