    Well since apparently racial, ethnic, religious, and national groups can decide what offends them, if ALIPAC decides this is offensive to Americans, they should say so and ask for compensation

    Isn't it funny how they say that the term illegal alien is offensive to them, and yet they feel they can openly and freely call us gringos w/o any worries. I find that phrase offensive to me. Those racist bastards!

    Blanca Granados, the store's assistant manager, translated the message to mean “just 'without white papers,' like Social Security or like that.â€

    What if a local bank in Anytown USA advertised with a sign that said.."get a mortgage the ILLEGAL way ...(no identification required..no ss number needed.) How would that be taken? The ACLU would be there in an instant.

    Call em up and give them hell. Their number is (703) 931-8900. They do not except calls from blocked numbers.

    I just spoke with one of the racist discriminating employees from that store who said that “the sign was not racistâ€
