The gentleman from California can refer to it as a gimmick to oppose your amendment. I am opposed to the gentlemans amendment because - is insane to suggest that after wha we learned about Nazi Germany in the period before World War II. that we would turn little children into informers on their parents as to their nationality status in schools in this country and expect that they would still go to school with trust in their eyes and trust in their hearts. when it was time for them to go to school. It is insane in your attempt to make whatever point you wanted to make about illegal aliens. And I do not know what is going on in your part of California. I have never been able to figure it out. But I wanted to tell you something. it is not just going to affect them. In the city of Detroit. there are tons of thousands of people who are in the school system and in surrounding suburbs who are Canadian citizens. and they never saw a green card. They do not know about those things. because they are not a different color and they do not speak a different language. Where you have a population that is coming in that has a different skin coloration or a different language. it is easy to pick them out and identify the problem and demagog on that issue.
Identified stereotypes
Generalization about people with different skin coloration or language being easily identifiable as a problem.
