People are telling you that just because they're Hispanic doesn't make them illegal. In fact the higher the Hispanic population the more illegals you are going to come across.

Just because someone is Hispanic does not mean that they are here illegally!!!!! It is because of ignorant people like you that other countries look down on Americans.
The border states, more specifically the cities in the southern part of the border states tend to have a higher population of Mexican Americans because of the natural flow of traffic. Think about it. The further you want to go, the more money it costs. Immigrants also tend to live close to the border when they still have family in Mexico, as they are closer and it costs less to travel.

It could because New Mexico shares a border with Mexico. I would expect there to be a lot of illegal immigrants there as opposed to some place like Hawaii.

Border state, and if they want their land back, what the hell are they doing in our southern states like Georgia, and Alabama. They need to be deported and fast. They are destroying our small towns and our border states. Some Mexicans still live in Mexico and their kids just walk across the border into an American school. I seen that on the news, but it was Arizona.

Mexicans are under the misguided impression that these lands were "stolen" from them (even though they were won fair and square in war AND paid for) and thus they are infiltrating the southwest in their self-proclaimed "reconquistadora" (reconquest) of the south.
Why do you think the governor of NM declared it to be a national emergency/disaster in an attempt to FORCE the federal government to actually start doing something about it???
REBEL GAL -- You do realize that there are 5 million illegals in LA alone, right? I wonder if many of you realize that the LA county jail system is 90% black and latino.

Well, New Mexico is on the border. is on the border. Trust me, this isn't the only state that is having this problem. Texas, Arizona, and Southern California are gettin it just as bad.

How can you possibly know they are all illegal? Did you know there are many native American's in Santa Fe? I have been to Sante Fe and there are many native Americans who look Hispanic but are not.....Get over your bigotry....

So you assumed that just because they were Mexican they were also illegal immigrants? That's poor logic!
