I grew up in a community with lowlowlow mexicans and I witnessed numerous actions of racism lashed out by Mexicans. I was also the target of some of these mexicans racism. I hope karma guides the politics of our country against the Mexicans that are racist....largely the ILLEGAL ALIENS!!!

Racism isn't mutually exclusive. Often its other issues that motivate criticism and violence. How many times have you seen the victim of hate or violence by one man take it out on an entire race of human beings. This happens ever day.

Yes, but only once and not in person. I had a different YA account about six months ago and, long story short, a Mexican guy threatened me because I disagreed with his posting. No big deal, though. He was suspended. I have dated several Mexican
women and never had any problems. Here in DC, where I live, most of the Latinos are from El Salvador. I haven't had any problems with them (In fact, I was married to a Salvadoran woman for thirteen years!) The gang problem, unfortunately, appears to be on the rise.

Yes, on Y!A I have been attacked personally when I have said illegal immigrants should be deported. They should not be here, they came here by criminal means and are in this country illegally. I want the law enforced. It is a matter of law and has nothing to do with race. Yet, I am called racist for wanting the laws in my country enforced. I have been called "lazy white", "lazy Native American" "fat American". I did not deserve those labels. First, I have worked public work since I was 15 years old and had to get a permit. I have never been on welfare and I have worked menial jobs, physically demanding jobs, and I have raised my kids alone(divorce) without help from anyone else. I pay my own bills. I have lost my jobs twice due to outsourcing (car parts mfg). One sent jobs to Germany and one sent them to Brazil. I now work two jobs to earn what I made on ONE then. I had worked my up from an $11/hr job (1986) to a $15/hr job in 2005. Laid off permanently due to the outsourcing. Now my jobs pay half what I was making then. The same job that paid $11/hr in 1986 (20 yrs. ago) now pays $8-$9/hr. Wages are falling. They should be going UP, not DOWN. With the illegal immigrants coming in here they have lowered wages and if we Americans don't take them the illegals will so we must take the low paying jobs or we don't get a job. That is why I'm so fired up about this issue. I'm mad as HELL and I'm not taking anymore!!

It seems to be a problem in our schools here.
Yep Racism is showing its ugly head
Some people can not even have an opinion on a issue without being accused of it.
And it would seem that just a few posts ago (which was deleted) was an example.
But I am sure that goes both ways.

You yourself sound like a racist. Sadly, racism exists among all races and not everybody thinks the same. All of us are the same in the inside. None of us are different. We all do the same things just like everyone else. No one race is superior to another.

I find that pretty offensive since im Mexican, you are being stereotype like almost every person since you think every latino is Mexican but every race can be racist not just Mexicans. And you are pretty racist too I just saw your questions all of them are about Mexicans so don't talk about Mexicans being racist when you are the one being racist right now

There are racists in every color. Don't judge all by a few. I am against illegal aliens. I don't care which nation they are from. I don't care what color their skin is or even which language. If they are here illegally they need to GO HOME.
