They wish there was a way to make them all suffer. Enter this new law.

This stood out to me:



They suffer just as a lot of people want them to. Taking our jobs and stuff. Speaking Spanish in the schools and stuff. Not meshing well with the existing racial and ethnic structure of this society. How are you going to walk around MY country and not know MY language?!
Which is dumb anyway...they've shown that hispanic immigrants are assimilating at the same rate as prior immigrant groups. It takes a couple generations for the "melting pot" to smooth out.
