The term is generic in reference to people here illegally.
Yes, it seems like it is becoming more and more prevalent on the forum lately. You have this example here and cases of people referring to Obama with racist slang in other threads. It really makes us look bad.The antis are always paint gun owners as ignorant and bigoted and here one of our own goes out of his way prove them right. There is no place on this forum for racism. If you want to refer to illegals use the term illegal.
No one is protecting illegals. I'm personally for sealing the borders and deporting as many as possible. But there is no room for racist slurs here. Your ignorance just gives the antis the ammunition that they need to paint all gun owners as ignorant racists. I have high hopes that the moderators will give you a couple of weeks aways from the forum to think about it.Why must people protect illegal immigrants? They are here illegally, why should I give them any respect?

maestro pistolero said:No, the derogatory term 'wetback' refers to hispanics who have just crossed the Rio Grande river. As such, it is a racial slur and has no place in this forum, in my opinion.
One of the most dangerous laws on the book in my state is a law that gives the authorities the power to seize guns from citizens if the governor declares a state of emergency.
