For thos eof you who do not like hispanics in this country, why don't you? all we want to do is work and we don't care what type of work, we just want to support our families and give the best to our children, and it just tears me up inside knowing that some americans don't want us here. Now I am a citizen because i just became one but I know what it's like for hispanic families to struggle. Don't hate we are just trying to make a living, like you.

Oh please... don't make me cry!
We only want the illegals out of our country! They must obey our laws and apply to gain entry the legal way!
And, personally, I don't care how Hispanics must struggle to support their families... that's NOT our problem! There's a whole world out there with the same problems as Hispanics, so what gives Hispanics the right to jump into our country illegally?
Why don't they form an uprising within their own country and change their own corrupt government... make their country as they would like it to be?! I'll tell you why - because they're too lazy! They have it easier crossing over into our country and degrading it for us! They've filled our emergency rooms, clogged up our traffic, sucked up our welfare, paid little, (if any), taxes, sent a lot of what they do earn back into Mexico, etc., and overcrowd our schools!
Now if that isn't enough for you to understand, then maybe you should give up your citizenship and go back to wherever you came from!!!
In the meantime, don't expect us to welcome the influx of illegals for some bleeding heart sob story... it's NOT going to happen!!! Get over it!!!

Hispanics aren't the only race in this country that are working hard to support their families and doing all that other crap. It's a struggle for all races in this country. Not just a hispanic struggle so don't use that and try to gain sympathy. Many Hispanics are giving you a bad name by not respecting our country, mainly the illegals but i don't appreciate the latin singers singing our National Anthem in Spanish. If you wanna have pride in this country then sing it in English like it's intended! and also the fact many call us racist on a daily basis just because we want security for our borders is another reason why they wouldn't get respect.
Why not ask all the illegal immigrants why are they coming here illegally and disrespecting our country when they know it's angering us? It's the Americans who are victims here, and while we let their crap slide for years, once those people start waving Mexican flags and bitching for rights to be given to those who came illegally well that's a breaking point for many and we won't tolerate that BS. It's probably the lack of respect that drives us to think so badly about Hispanics also. Your in America, act like Americans. Don't forget this is a Country with it's own culture, language and customs, and we don't like when people start changing the way we live such as learning Spanish to accomodate those too lazy to learn and assimilate into this country. if you had such pride you would learn to fuction in this country speaking english, you don't go to countries like Korea and expect everyone to start speaking your language because your too damn lazy.
So you just became a citizen good for you, but remember it's not the Americans who are the bad guys here. if alot of us are pissed off at Hispanics then you should think about why we're pissed off.
If Hispanics could learn to start supporting the country that makes their life so good instead of people who come here breaking our laws and expecting us to change the way we do things, then probably our perception would change, but as of now i have no respect for alot of Hispanics just because they don't seem to give a damn about our country or what's best for it. Even though there are alot of responsible and honest ones, but you just don't see them alot on Tv though.

People aren't attacking the Hispanic demographic as a whole, just illegal immigration. The reason illegal immigration is being reviewed is because it is an easy means for terrorists to also enter this country, and also we have to draw the line sometime as to who we let into the country. The country will reach 300,000,000 they say by next year. We have borders up, but people insist on crossing them without second thought, and it continues and continues. That is why immigration is being reviewed, because no one is abiding by the law. It isn't specifically one race they are noticing, but anyone at all who enters the country illegally. Legal residents (anyone born in the US) are not the matter.

If you are a "legal" citizen of the US, welcome...I have no problem with hispanic people (I have a very good friend in PortoRico I wish would come over;). I don't like "Illegal" people crossing the border into the Us. You should be upset too, because you worked to get here, and someone else is sneeking in to do who knows what.

Some hispanics give you all a bad reputation, so you are really lumped in the same basket as far as hispanics. Local populations vary on the acceptance of foreign nationals. I dont really care if your here or not. I dont like the fact that some of you take the money you earn and ship it off to another country, spend it here like your supposed to.

I dont want you out of the USA. In fact, I live in Montana, and I really feel there are no where near enough Latinos or African Americans here. This state is way to friggin white! I was born and raised in Spokane, Washington and a good majority of my friends have been Latino. I couldnt care less about the light on the color bar- in other words, I dont care who you are, where you came from, the color of your skin, what your beliefs are, or who you choose to love. As long as you treat me good, I'll treat you good.
And just so you know, I am 'white'. Not all whites or all naturally born Americans are racist or filled with hate. It's a shame that the haters are the most vocal group.
I detest racism and bigotry in any form it takes.
Embrace diversity, dont fear it!

I'm assuming it's because hispanics (and a lot of other nationalities) are coming into this country and expect us (english speaking americans) to change our lifestyles to suit them.
They want us to learn to speak spanish so that they can understand, when why is that? English is our language here in america.
Muslims come into our country and want us to denounce God because they dont believe in him. Why is that fair to us?
We are spending so much time catering to other nationalities, and frankly it's annoying.
Immigrants come in from mexico and expect jobs and there are hard working americans looking for jobs every day, that have an education and work experience.
I'm not saying this is you personally, but this is why I believe everyone is stereotyping.

If you are here illegally we want you out. If you are here legally thats good. We dont want mexico sending us all their poor. Mexico must fix its problems and get rid of its corrupt ways. That is why you are so poor.
Mexicans come to America waving mexican flags, and breaking american laws. They spit on us, really. They use us, and take advantage of our generosity.
Our braindead American leaders let you do it. Its not the American people that support you being here illegally. The people have said little about it for all these years, but now we are sick of it. The Mexican filling our prisons. The mexicans driving down the street blaring loud mexican music. The mexican flags everywhere. The mexicans that cheer for mexican teams instead of american teams in sports.
If mexico is so good, and your heart is still there, why are you hear? Why have so many mexicans not even learned to speak english?
Go back to Mexico. We dont want you here.

good for you for becoming a citizen because now you can contribute to the government like the rest of the americans, as for not wanting you here consider the ones who come here and dont become citizens that work for nothing and take jobs away from us because they are cheaper to hire we are just trying to support our familys also. you also need to remember that you are in our country, so learn our language i should not have to conform to you but you should conform to us
