I can't say what would happen, but the screams of racism would come from the fact that you can't create a "club" when you are the dominant members of society. For instance, I could set up a White club table at a diversity event, and get accused of racism. It's not really racist, but more of the fact that it is the dominant society, so what purpose do white people have of banding together considering that it's mostly white people who control everything.
My views on illegal immigration match CNN's Lou Dobbs:

There are 280 million legal citizens of this country. They are the ones carrying the burden of 20 million illegal immigrants. Oh, it's a great benefit for illegal employers. But don't you dare suggest that it is a benefit to working men and women, who are watching $200 billion of wages disappear every year because of illegal immigration. They're paying for their health care. They're paying for their children in schools that are overcrowded. We are failing the people who built this country, the American middle-class. Don't tell me how important illegal immigration is, because it's utter nonsense.

As my political science professor has said multiple times, "Politics makes strange bedfellows." In this case it applies to how so many elites on both the right and the left seem to be ignoring general American opinion on this issue. To boot, these people are trying to paint the vast majority of Americans who want the borders enforced as radical and unreasonable, which I find quite insulting. Our leaders who are making excuses for breaking the law are the radical and unreasonable ones, not those of us who want our laws enforced!
