Next week, blacks will wear tags saying “N___” on “Find the N___” day.
Brand new game at NYU: ‘Find the Illegal Immigrant’
A student Republican club at New York University is planning a “Find the Illegal Immigrant” game tomorrow, sparking complaints of racism and a potential protest.
The object of the game is to be the first to point out a club member wearing a nametag reading “Illegal Immigrant,” with the winner receiving a gift certificate. Students need to show their NYU identification to be deemed “INS” agents in order to search for the person wearing the tag.
“The person that is being the ‘illegal immigrant’ is not an actual undocumented worker or illegal immigrant,” Sarah Chambers, 21, president of the College Republicans, told the New York Daily News. “Just because we don’t want illegal immigrants being able to completely disregard the laws of our country doesn’t make us racist.”
NYU officials released a statement explaining why the college is allowing the game. Spokesman John Beckman writes: [...] “Our inclination is always to support free speech. Just as one group of students will conduct this so-called ‘game,’ others will be protesting it. At a university, this is exactly the kind of outcome we hope for from engaged students and scholars.”

Racist?! exactly what race is an illegal immigrant?
^^ All races
I don’t know about this game, but I can say that immigration will be one of my top priorities for my next Prez. vote!
How is this a game when all the participants have to do is look at a name tag??? They better put it on a blond hair, blue eyed German.
There is nothing “racist” about objecting to criminality, except to people deluded by PC.
And, much to the chagrin of said PCers, said objection to illegal immigration is far from the exclusive province of Republicans. They’d rather you not know that respect for obeying immigration law, as the vast majority of our ancestors did, is not, as much as they would like to hoodwink you to the contrary, a left/right issue.
I’ve personally paid my multicultural dues, and I’ve got a closetful of t-shirts to show for it. Most of my life has been spent, not in isolate, lily-white Middle America, but in 3 of the most diverse cities in the West; D.C., Miami and Houston. Very few of my friends are American-born – so spare me any “racist” horseshit, it ain’t gonna fly.
I’ve learned some realities over the years regarding illegals, and I recently came across an open letter from a 27-year veteran of the INS, to a senator. In it, he spells out the realities, plainly and clearly. And every bit of it, I personally know to be true and factual.
Those with open minds (as well as those deluded ideologues already stoked to start screeching “Racism!!”) will find it here. PCers and knee-jerk liberals won’t be able to accept it, but the more firsthand real-world experience you have with illegal immigrants, the harder it is to deny.
Hey, what do you expect? Cute girls doing a poly-sci major need to do something to fill up their time.
The term “racism” has become almost meaningless from years of improper over-usage.
If they were really concerned about illegal immigration simply because the law is being broken, then why not play find the “illegal immigrant employer”. If it weren’t for all the US citizens and US companies brazenly violating the law by hiring illegal immigrants, there wouldn’t be a problem. The fact that they choose to focus on the immigrants instead of the companies is why I suspect Sarah Chambers and her friends are xenophobic.
what a waste of time. if they really want to help out. why don’t they spend time at the border with the Minute Men.
and #8 you don’t really expect some hardworking college student to upset a future employer do you?
lastly, for a young Republican she’s kinda hot. but then I lust after Coulter too, so what do I know.
Trying to equate illigal immigration to slavery is why the left doesn’t have a voice in this discussion.
Yes, that means you Dave.
Yes, I do expect her to have some spine and why would she want to work for a company that hires illegal immigrants anyway? The minutemen are silly. The problem is not the immigrants, but the US companies and US citizens breaking the law by employing illegal immigrants.
This blog post is intellectually dishonest and a blatant attempt at race-baiting where no racism exists.
#5 There is nothing “racist” about objecting to criminality, except to people deluded by PC.
That’s just the kind of bullshit I expect to hear from a Mac Fanboy.

Thank you for your carefully considered, well-reasoned, content-free so-called “refutation” of what I said.
Break it down now: ‘bullshit’ – that says you disagree; ‘Mac fanboi’ – that’s trivial ad hominem, so we throw that out – now we get to where you explain exactly in what way I’m wrong. OOPS! Nothing there! Entirely, 100% absent of anything remotely resembling an argument.
Pathetic.
All of the racists I’ve ever meet have been xenophobe’s and vice versa. Maybe Sarah Chambers is only xenophobe and not a racist.
Protecting laws is bad! Protecting the feelings of law breakers is good! Race baiting is good! yea moderen liberalism!

Sorry old chum, but that one blew by like an F-111 over a rice paddy. In a computer-related thread I mighta noticed…
…or maybe not – after all, I am rather dense, just ask Gasparrini if you don’t believe me…
This is racist? Actually it is exposing racism in the people saying it is racist, wo assume that illegal immigrant means people of a particular race. Also, if the people involved start looking at Mexicans for the tag, then this game exposes racism in themselves.
This is closer to the ‘John Rocker is racist’ news where the people making the charge heard ‘New York queer with aids next to a kid with purple hair next to a welfare mother next to a guy out of jail for the third time’ and thought of black people.

“…
Yes, that means you Dave.”
