If a legal Mexican in the USA..........?

Question

Doesnt like, cant stand or is against illegal immigration..........
- Is he or she considered a racist by the general American population
- How is he or she classified as by the "LEGAL MEXICAN POPULATION" of the USA
- How is he or she classified as by the ILLEGAL MEXICAN POPULATION" of the USA.

NOTE: AS long as the Mexican population of Mexico is concerned any "MEXICAN" who doesnt support ILLEGALS in the USA are just plainly classified as "RACIST"

Answer 1

A Mexican who is against illegal immigration is NOT a racist "traidor" or "pendejo" as Mendi8a so eloquently put it, but rather an honorable human being whose example should be followed by all illegals. Legal Mexicans resent the way illegal Mexicans are butting their way into the US and taking the easy way out, whereas the legal Mexicans had to fight tooth and nail and be PATIENT in order to obtain their goals.

Answer 2

I wouldn't consider he/she a racist. People must understand that this is not a race war! All Americans (White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, Indian, etc...) must all stand up and fight for the right to be taken care of "1st" and foremost by the leaders of our country. They seem to help every country before they take a look @ what is going on in their own back yard. Mexicans are targeted because they have abused the American system more than any other race around. No... I would not consider you a racist nor a sellout!!! You are an American citizen, because someone in your family did things the right way. The race card is used as a cop-out!!!

Answer 3

First of all, I am the person Ms. RAWR_♥ is referring to. But for some odd reason she added words to my response to this girl's question. Yes I did ask her if she was Mexican, but never called her racist like this child is stating I did. Never did I ever said it was disrespectful. As a matter of fact RAWR_♥ answered one of the questions I asked about personal experience with illegals, said something about her friends experience, I nicely asked HER about her personal experience with them, then she responded in a very rude manner "Go back to Mexico", hey, why should I go back to Mexico if I was born here? Just because I asked her such a simple question? Funny, right? and guess what she did after I told her she had been reported? She deleted her answer. She is very smart right? Now it's up to you to take her answers and the "maturity" she shows seriously.
BTW She also states that I am a Mexican, I am an American with a Mexican father and a Mexican-Caucasian mother.

Answer 4

This is a very interesting question because just yesterday a part-Mexican legal American women asked a question about illegal immigration - stated her view, Which was against illegal immigration.
She was asked by another user who was Mexican - Are you sure your Mexican? and a big rant about how it is disrespectful to Mexican people and how she was a racist American.

I honestly really do feel sorry for legal Mexican citizens in the USA. They are just people trying hard for a shot at it like everyone else & illegal aliens just make them feel deeply ashamed.

http://www.hispanicsforsecureborders.org/

The purpose of Hispanics For Secure Borders is to provide a means for Hispanic citizens to find accurate and useful information about illegal immigration and to express support for secure borders and immigration law enforcement.

Millions of Hispanic citizens and legal Hispanic immigrants suffer lost job opportunities and lower wages because of the flood of illegal workers. Hispanic communities suffer from the impact of crimes committed by felons among the illegal population as well as overcrowding in many public schools.

Answer 6

Illegal immigration isn't a question about race which so many people have tuned it into.
it's a question of our economic structure and the weight of the American dollar.
This Mexican who is legal..if not born here...probably went through the schooling and proper channels to take the citizenship test..so yes I would see how illegals upset this person...if he did it...why shouldn't they...not a question of race but a question of following the law.

Answer 7

getting the whole Hispanic and Mexican thing mixxed up agine, but I understand what you are trying to say.

Don't feel bad, I think I'm like the only one on this forum that knows the difference.

Answer 8

You can't speak in generalities, so I don't think they all feel this way, but I do think they would feel forgotten since a legal immigrant would have gone through the system. I guess one really couldn't understand what it would be like unless one was in that position.

Answer 9

They are not so much classified as racists as they are "Sell Outs"!!! Illegal immigrants think that mexican legal immigrants who are against them are forgetting where they come from.

Answer 10

huh??
for the last time, it has nothing to do with people being mexican or any other ethnic background. it has to do with illegal status. that's the problem.
stop blurring the issue. we've nothing against mexicans. just illegals. you guys are the ones who keep bringing up the race issue into this.
