White Open-Borders Activists Accuse Anti-Amnesty Black Group of Being Like the Klan

March 6, 2010, 8:30 AM EST – posted on NumbersUSA

I have grown accustomed to well-funded open-borders groups sending hecklers to call me a “white supremacist” every place I speak.

But I was still a little surprised when I spoke to a Black grassroots group recently to have all the African Americans there also accused. It now looks like pro-amnesty groups are willing to label as racist anybody who advocates for less immigration.

It kind of makes me laugh. But it really is despicable, because the ridiculous efforts to silence our side are not the work just of fringe activists but of the largest pro-amnesty organizations of America. These groups not only spread the same lies and libelous characterizations, but they orchestrate the McCarthyism tactics of intimidation and marginalization.

BLACK AND WHITE TAXPAYERS FIND COMMON GROUND

I was one of five panelists at a meeting of People For Change, a grassroots group in Prince George’s County, Maryland — probably the premier majority-Black county in America. Three of the speakers were Black and I was one of two White speakers. The moderator and leader of People For Change was Black, as are most members of that organization. Also present were members of a mostly-White grassroots organization called Help Save Maryland.

All of us were agreed in our concern for what largescale illegal immigration was doing to costs for taxpayers and to services for the needy in Prince Georges County and in the whole state of Maryland.

Our calls for mandatory verification to keep illegal aliens out of jobs, and for the use of the SAVE system to keep them out of most public benefits, drew enthusiastic applause from the crowd.
