Well I decided to create this question because I've noticed that many americans think that mexicans are less than they are, but they are too blind to realize that their country works thanks to all inmigrants, specially mexicans. Haven't you realized that from all the innmigrants, the ones that they hate the most are mexicans?

You're saying that 3000 innmigrants from mexico...There's the detail FROM, but not all of them are mexican, many of them are from other countries from Latin America that are poorest than Mexico.
Mexico can be the 13th richest, but it doesn't mean that all the richess are being exploted.
And, I'm not meaning to all americans, I said MANY, but not ALL.

Mexicans aren't taking back all the territory Americans took from us. And if so, we have a total right in taking something that belong to us. What do you think?

Besides this, racism has been showed against mexicans, for example, you cannot have the word negga (or whatever it is spelled) on a car plate, but you DO can have the word wet back.

I myself am not American, nor do i have anything at all against America - however; i will say that i have noticed that MANY (NOT ALL!) American people tend to believe they are "above" people from most other countries - including Mexican Immigrants. This attitude, i believe, has little or no basis in fact but has far more to do with the leaders of America. The arrogant attitude comes right from the top; was it not America its very self that created the notion of "the American Dream" ?! If the leaders of their country have an arrogant attitude& think they're better than the rest then its little wonder that the same principles and ways of thinking have been taken on by so many (it seems) American people. I noticed in your question you are very passionate about your cause, which i do commend you for but would urge you to not fight a losing battle. As i said i doubt it has anything to do with your people(it seems from your question that you yourself are mexican immigrant) personally, politically or anything else if the truth be known - it probably IS that Americans can be very arrogant and just automatically believe they're better than everyone! (i am in no way against american people; i actually have family there! And im certain that there are plenty of undesirable British traits - im british!- that i could sit here and take apart!!!) In short i suppose what i'm saying is: don't worry about it; it's not you with the problem-it's them!!!!(oh; and yes-immigrants DO contribute a lot to america; to its economy,workplace ....)

It's not a matter of being 'less than', it' s a matter of being in our country illegally. Mexico does not tolerate that, therefore there's no reason on this earth for the United States to tolerate it. You can fire the entire Senate today, for all I care, the House 'gets it', the Senate does NOT. Mexico needs to go home, en masse, sometime over the next 12 months we need to see a lot of people heading south. If we don't, that implies that any enforcement efforts are just token gestures, and that our representatives quit doing that job some time ago. Not sure when, exactly, but the writing is on the wall for these guys...americans want people in office who will stick up for the 50 states. If we're going on and on and on about 'homeland security', then let's make a good honest start by getting that border finished, and double-quick, and start having same-day deportations for illegals. If they cherry-pick where, when, and who they deport, that means they're already playing favorites and have no real intention of doing something about the 12 million or so estimated illegal aliens in america today. I don't care HOW 'hard working' they are, they can go live on Bush's ranch and not on Mainstreet, USA etc. Americans are basically expected to stand there and listen to a lot of 'la raza/reconquista' garbage, and further stand there while all this free stuff is laid out on the table for people that don't have one legal right to be in our country to begin with. Basically, the people that are/have been writing all of this garbage are on DOPE. That needs to end. This administration's already made it painfully clear they have a tin ear to the will of the public, it's probably going to TAKE impeachment to get em out. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and recall elections are a real option...

Being the 13th richest country in the world obviously doesn't mean much if they have millions of their own people leaving it every year. If they could make jobs for all the mexicans coming here, then maybe Mexico would be a better place, but they refuse to do that.
If so many of them wanted to have a better life, than they can come here legally like everybody else instead of just hopping the border.

Because white people are racist whether they want to admit it or not. Admit it, when white people are alone or amongst other white people they say racial slurs all day long. And the reason they pick on Mexicans so much is because...white people are racist!!! And because as the largest non-white ethnic group we don't stand up for ourselves and so anglo-america, which doesn't represent the majority of America by the way, likes to think that they can push us around. What will they do in about 10-15years when it's estimated that Mexico will have an economy that will easily rival the U.S. should be the next question. Since the start of the War on Terror, the one ethnic group that enlisted in phenomenal amounts was, guess what, Mexican-Americans. Hell, the first casualty was an illegal immigrant who signed up for the Corp. The last time I was in Iraq my whole Scout Platoon was 98% Mexican. Yes, I was also part of the Scout Platoon. So in conclusion, why do they hate us? Because they are ignorant, lazy, and therefore jealous of what others are motivated to do that they are too lazy to do for themselves. Besides, like I said. The one's that make all the noise about immigrants don't actually represent the majority of America, the media just makes it look that way since the media prefers to put "friendly" faces on Tv. Namely white faces.

Maybe Bush Daddy could draw a line in the sand again. Really though if it was not for Illegal Immigrant who would pick your lettuce, grow your tomatoes, strawberries and all the food you eat, who would be peeling the potatoes washing the dishes etc in your restaurants, they mow your lawns and clean your swimming pools. Eventually they will take over the country? Lets face it, the US was built on slave labour in the rice and cotton fields of the south and the Mexicans are the modern slaves with the advantage that when the picking season is over you do not need to look after them or use a ship, you can just drive them back to the border to send them home.

The majority of "americans" (white people from the U.S.) have a superiority complex. I've heard and read a lot of comments from them, when they don't like something or someone, they say: "we'll bomb your a s s" so they think that with war they can solve anything. They're so arrogant!!! God how can they be so proud of murder??? They think it's right to go and invade a country, kill their inocent people (women, kids)...all for what? For more money and power!!! Why are the troops in Irak? Is it really because of what happened on 9/11? Was just that an excuse made up by the U.S. government to invade that country???
All of this just doesn't make any sense to me.

Why do the English think that the Scots, the Irish, The Polish, the French and all middle eastern people are less than they are?
Give me a break!!!
The English want to claim Americans are bigots when hey, the boat sailed from your ports. I came from the southern states of America (where it is stereotyped) to live in England......I never seen so many rednecks in all of my life as here. Go beat up a football fan and then come back and talk more s hi t!

Ummm...I dont think Mexicans are the worst hated immigrants. I just think they're the mopst popular immigrants since they seem to be everywhere. About 3000 Mexicans cross the border and enter the US everyday sooo....ya know....they're hard to miss.
I personally think that Mexicans are the hardest working (labor wise) people in the USA. For that reason, they get all of my respect.
Yes, America was built on the backs of immigrants. Except back then, those immigrants (African slaves) were forced to come here and work.....and I think it's funny and ironic that people are trying to stop immigrants from entering NOW.

I think that Americans who care about this are afraid.Mexicans are not only doing the jobs Americans don't want to do.They are moving on to better jobs.Also they seem to want to be nationalists.That means that they want to have their own country in our country.If your a half way intelligent American you can see where this is going.Our own laws and freedoms are being used against us and we feel like we are having our faces rubbed in it.No other country in the world has this problem.If we tryed to do this to Mexico I wonder how Mexicans would feel.I don't think Amer cans think Mexicans are less than them.I do think that they worried about being assimilated into Mexican culture.Eventually that is what will happen.Mexicans wont become Americans they will remain Mexicans who live on American soil.

I don't think that Americans feel they are better than Mexicans, Americans feel they are better than everyone in the world. That being said, Mexicans compose the majority of Illegal aliens and Americans don't like that, they have turn a beautiful city like LA into a dump Americans don't like that, They have rallied and threatened not to work for a day Americans don't like that, They burned the American flag Americans don't like that, neither Jews, Vietnamese, Chinese etc. have come here Illegally and demanded to get benefits, nor sarcastically laughed at our laws and yelled Viva La Judea, or Viva La Japan. They have insulted the American population with their arrogant behavior. They keep saying if they leave who will work those jobs, I guess it will be 5% unemployed we have or perhaps the ones that come in legally, using the proper channels.
