Mental stress is pain, in my opinion. I'm Black, and if there were a "Catch the Blacks" campaign, which could totally exist a while back, I'd feel terrified. Yeah, this example isn't as good because you can't really tell who's an illegal immigrant and who isn't, as opposed to a Black person - but if you can tell me that feeling like you're constantly being hunted doesn't hurt you in any way, I'm going to respectfully disagree with you. Of course they can make a point about it, if they feel passionately. But I guess my final point is, just because you feel so strongly about something, doesn't mean that this is the right way to go about telling the world.
