you can't call me racist because unfortunately, its true a lot of the time. they come and speak spanish everywhere they go like theyre in little mexico. Isnt it time they realized what country theyre in? they shouldnt even be here in the first place, america is not a country that should have to give away everything good it has. and for those who say the economic benefits are a good reason to keep them....youre wrong. americans would take their jobs if they paid fair wages. america worked fine before this problem. im not against legal immigration. its unfair to every legal immigrant entering this country for an illegal to steal the right to live here. i have lots of hope america will elect politicians who know whats happening to the country and do something to stop it.

I have no idea. And you are right. Legal and illegal. Where I live, there are almost as many Mexican flags flying on U.S. territory as there are American flags. I say, if it's that wonderful, live in Mexico. And that goes for anyone else flying the flag of another nation. I mean get on the next smokin' jet and have a good life!!

It will take them some time to learn English. Very few people choose not to learn another language and that is not strictly Mexicans.
In any case, they're very kind and hard working people. The sad part is that they do all the dirty and low paying jobs in this country. That is the number one reason why the government is not doing something about it. A lot of the rich factory owners employ them at minimum wage, 99% of Americans will not accept these jobs, let alone getting paid minimum wage. When they go to work and all they see is other Mexicans who don't speak English either, how can they learn the language? They hardly interact with English speaking public.

They act like they're still in Mexico because they're trying to turn this country into the United States of Mexico. Not to mention, the bulk of the illegals don't have sense enough to learn English. They should all be rounded up and shipped back across the border immediately if not sooner.

Dude you just reminded me of something. The manager of my apartment complex is from Mexico as most of our tenants are. As you would think If people don't speak English they probably don't know American laws either. She tries to get away with hecca stuff bull but I know the laws and I regulate on her. She gets so mad that she can't push me around like her other clueless tenants. I've stuck up for them and have helped them many times against our slum lord. That girl for sure needs to learn she's not in Mexico. And here you can't treat people like crap and That renters have rights and she needs to deal with it.... And follow our laws.

Why did Irish people come to America at the same time as Italians and bring their beer-fests, Gaelic, Italian, Catholic festivals, restaurants, pubs, and holidays?
Hmmm let's think... Because people will always bring with them, what they know and hold true in their hearts...
If you didn't go to college, then I'm sorry.... If you did or are... then take sociology...

I guess because their country don't have laws like ours dose, They are having a terrible time in our southern states, they are bring down the quality of life. Things that people never had to deal with are starting to tear their small towns apart, they have made new laws to try and get rid of them. We have never had this problem in our southern states. But the new illegal immigrants are horrible.

yes there is alot of jobs that white ppl dont want but if us mexicans didnt work at jack in the box or mc donalds ect. there wouldn't be any fast food restruants. they arent greedy like white ppl who want $$$$$ they are happy with wat they get. because they are able to support their family and have food on the table. ppl who come from mexico get the jobs you ppl dont want. they aren't afraid getting dirty or sweating.. at least they have the Ballz to work. how would you like it if you were in mexico visiting and they said that you can no longer speak english..

How do you know you were listening to ILLEGAL immigrants? My red-haired, blue-eyed cousin from Minnesota speaks fluent Spanish. My friend from Miami whose parents fled oppression in Central America proudly teaches her kids to speak Spanish, and her upstate NY husband is picking it up too, gladly.
How about those people you hear speaking Korean, Italian, or with thick Irish accents? Are they acting like they're in Little Wherever?
See, you ARE a racist, or bigot, or closet Nazi - take your pick!
