Yes racism is worse, a thousand times worse. There is no contest here. Just ask yourself: would you rather be a victim of racism in its many forms or for some one to accuse you of being racist when you are not.
If someone does accuse you of being racist, and you are not, it should be a simple exercise to correct them of their error.
To me this is like: would you rather win 1 million dollars or 1 thousand dollars? The answer is obvious.
Anyone in favor of allowing America to investigate those entering the country or get rid of those in the country illegally is a racist. According to Liberals, "That's a FACT." I have lived in countries all over the world. I just finished my annual trip to immigration two days ago. W60 and about an hour later, I am once again a legal resident in the Republic of Korea. Every country in the world that I can think of, protects its borders and rounds up illegal aliens. How in the hell is that racist. If you are not in America legally, find a way to fix it or get out. Obviously I am a racist.

"If you are not in America legally, find a way to fix it or get out."
I assume you meant: "illegally"
I do not think US citizens that want people that are in the USA illegally to be removed are racist. People that think illegal aliens in this country are more violent or dangerous I do think are a bit racist, especially since the opposite is true. I definitely think people that want to shut down all legal immigration and visitation from certain Muslim leaning countries is/are very racist, (religious-ist?) And this is coming from an atheist.
I also think Native Americans have a claim to much of the best parts of the US, and should be able to kick us conqueror decendents that gained from it, off their lands, or charge us for the land/resources use of much of these areas. As our first european ancestral visitors, (conquerors,) to the lands the US borders now occupy centuries ago took it by brutal force and deception and disease. (This is true all of North America and South America for the most part, and not just the US.)
Should we make reparations for the deeds of those that died centuries ago? Very debatable. But when we talk about barring all immigration from some countries, this specter of our own immigration origins rears its ugly head.
@Cognostic
There is so much wrong with your post it isn't even funny.
1) You make a simplistic statement that doesn't begin to accurately describe the situation.
2) The only "illegals" that the conservatives are concerned about are Latinos, and people of color.
3) Conservatives don't want to investigate or even punish the corporations that recruit and hire "illegals". Those companies don't want to pay fair wages, pay taxes, or pay for benefits. They essentially want slave labor.
Can anyone name any country in the world that hasn't been invaded by aliens at one time or another?
"Cheddar Man: the first Britons were black, Natural History Museum DNA study reveals"

"The earliest Britons were black-skinned, with dark curly hair and possibly blue eyes, new analysis of a 10,000-year-old Somerset skeleton has revealed.
Scientists at the Natural History Museum have used pioneering genetic sequencing and facial reconstruction techniques to prove that the first hunter-gatherers successfully to inhabit Britain were far darker in complexion than previously thought.
The groundbreaking discovery was made in a “stroke of luck” after archeologists found scraps of DNA in the ear of the Mesolithic “Cheddar Man”, the oldest complete skeleton ever found in the UK and one of the museum’s most treasured specimens."
@ Diotrephes
And confirmation from the Romans:
"Jordanes describes two of the British tribes, the Caledonians and the Silures in a very similar fashion as Tacitus did in Agricola:
The Silures have swarthy features and are usually born with curly black hair, but the inhabitants of Caledonia have reddish hair and large but flaccid bodies. They are like the Gauls or the Spaniards, according as they are opposite either nation."
As we know the Caledonians displaced the Picts in the West of what we now call Scotland, the Picts have always been described in Scots legends as short of stature, finely made, with black hair and piercing blue eyes. A description thats fits well with the Berbers of North Africa. An interesting supposition.
Old man shouts ...,
I don't know too much about the demographics of that area.
@ Diotrephes
Read Ceasar and Agricola.
