huhhhhm....
i would be able to sleep at night peacefully:
1. without locking my door.
2. because i wouldn't be awakened by loud spanish music
3. because i wouldn't be awakened by spanish speaking people talking so loud while having a b-b-que on a wednesday night at 11:30 pm
4. knowing if someone hits my car, it would be taken care of
5. knowing that my property value would appreciate
6. because i would only see the combination green, red and white at christmas time.
7. because the crime rate would dramatically go down.
8. knowing that finally i can enjoy america...MY COUNTRY

Um, don't you think there's mexicans out there that have legally, yes LEGALLY emigrated to the United States, that want NOTHING to do with the problems that walked across the border illegally etc?
This is all about citizenship, not just what country you're from, but what it really MEANS to be a citizen. 'Citizenship' used to be something you read on your report card at school, meaning you were also being graded on your conduct.
Know what I think? I think some people hate cops. Why? Because law enforcement has the joyous task of trying to keep good order in communities that can't or won't actively and non-violently work to solve their own problems.
Think about your question...you just implied, didn't state, but implied that ALL mexicans are thieves. That's not right. It means you failed to differentiate between lawful, legal former mexican citizens and those that are unlawful, and possibly in america illegally. Again though, blanket statements are dangerous.
If you've got someone that's in america illegally, but otherwise conducts themselves lawfully, would you throw em out and instead keep someone that's a legal citizen of this country,
but perpetrates criminal actions? "By their works ye shall know them", quoth the Bible, and people that are legal american citizens but are out there doing basically whatever they feel like including shooting bullets into other people's houses are undesirables, in the eyes of many. Hence the existence of jails.
Once upon a time, many many moons ago, the community's answer on an undesirable member of that community was to
expel that person from their township. Banished. In those instances where people from other countries are apprehended perpetrating criminal acts in this country, they, too, should be banished, or deported, sent back whence they came. For the home-grown perpetrators, well that's what a jail cell is FOR. It's still important I think to be really accurate in what it is you're unhappy about, blanket statements and assumptions are almost always wrong. Nationality/ethnicity by itself shouldn't be a crime.
Comma. Mexico needs to work a LOT harder on solving their domestic issues, which means they need to do that community involvement thing, too. But, people in our communities need to work together also, have Neighborhood Watch, that kind of stuff.
If you see something in your area that's illegal and you feel endangered by it, ACT by picking up the phone and reporting it,
don't give in to prejudice. Hate, fear, anger, the dark side are they...

Mexicans like any other race in America have made contributions. The problem that many Americans are having is the on slot of illegal immigration. Its our racist and prejudiced laws that allow the overflow of illegals to continue to venture into the country by means of big business. It's absolutely dumb to have an ongoing war to fight terrorist, when we have an opened border policy. In addition; why are Americans not helping American citizens before aiding others (Katrina Victums). How do we explain to immigrants who can here legally why they are required to take certain measure and others aren't.

It would be very strange in America with no legally migrated Mexicans, Italian's, Irishman, Germans, etc (you get the picture). As far as illegal border jumping, drug trafficking, low life Mexicans, well, it would be almost heaven!!!
