I expect I'm just dense, don't worry about me.

I've explained it several times. For clarification, read again.

Please explain again, and remember, that there is nothing wrong with being wrong, we all make mistakes.
Thanks

Here you go. My original statement.
"Well no one likes anyone exploiting people or being dishonest (well, except for multi-national corporations of course, but that's for another day). What I find manipulative and dishonest is the whipping up of fury and the exaggeration of the actual cost of the dishonest sector of immigrants. All countries who have immigration do this - it's a cynical move for power by those in whose interest it is to whip up public furore on the subject, does nothing to resolve the causes of the problem, and does immigrant populations as a whole far more damage than the Albanian pimps and their ilk."
You were the one who then introduced this idea that via this statement I was condoning illegal or objectional behaviour.
