"Maybe because they continue to live like in Mexico. 20 people to a one bedroom apt.....They won't learn English......Eat beans and burritos, collect in groups and babel in Spanish, then clam up when we walk by... "
I know a couple of people that are without legal documentation. You don't know how hard they want to learn english, you don't think they're embaressed when people make fun of them because they have accent? They risk they're lives everyday trying to come over to the U.S to have a better life for themselves and they're family. So what they eat burritos and beans have you ever thought that that's all they can afford? (It's food get over it, don't act like you never ate food from another origin) So what if they live 20 to an app. (and we know this is sarcasm) at leat they have a place to live and arnt in the streets begging for money ...

Ummm yeah when did I ask for people to feel sorry for me? I could care less how you feel about me ... No im not illegal and whats this I hear about free rides? Over here (Houston, TX to be exact) the only people you see in the corners are homeless people (caucasian) by walmart, hookers by Telephone Rd., and Mexicans on Maxey Rd. looking for daily labor and i know at least 2 guys that stand there that were born in the US they just dont feel like going to the same job everyday so they just wait for somebody to come and pay them to do something or we can resort to the life of crimes and start selling drugs, killing people and raping women im sure that will be much better huh?

I like beans and burritos. Just not the spices or peppers. I'm not offended by accents from people who are speaking English. Too many people in a single family dwelling is a health and safety issue....not a judgement on their financial means or heratige. They have had reports of lots of Chinese or Korean illegals bunking in too many numbers as well. I remember one instance how many lost their lives because they couldn't get out on account of a fire. We have laws so those things hopefully won't be an issue but they aren't enforcing them. Alot of these places don't have plumbing and other utilities built to supply that many people without destroying it or overloading a system that could cause health hasserds or fires etc. It's not sarcasm about the numbers......no not all illegals......but it is and does occur all over this country. My husband delivers and has seen it first hand. Not poor neighborhoods either. New homes in nice suburbs....wall to wall mattresses and sheets hung between families living there. I lived in a neighborhood and saw it myself. It's not "stories". Alot of us don't have that option because many citizens would loose their children for being in an environment like that. It's called neglect. In some cases abuse, Don't you think we have poor who would like to possibly bunk up with others out of necessity? Many don't because they don't want to risk the host being evicted because they're there. There's grandmas who live in 55 and over communities that have laws that say they can't have children there over a certain period time. Sure don't wanna see grandma get kicked to street and loose her affordable housing while you're homeless. I mean why is it a crime for us then? Why can we be evicted for having too many visitors comming in and out or an un-reported guest but they don't? How can they "convert" a garage to additional living quarters without permits and inspections? How can they have family members bunk in a bunch of tents in their yard yet 2 streets over a citizen can't have their travel trailer parked in their back yard? There's just a dual set of rules and different people that are expected to obey them while others don't.

Tacos are quite lots our nationwide dish. Burritos are actually not even universal in Mexico. I agree pozole, sopes, barbacoa, gorditas, mole, chilaquiles are extra helpful than Americanized Mexican nutrition.

Huny, it's ok, because we Americans eat beans and burritos, too. And some of us live 20 people to a house hold. Not a one bedroom apartment, but we know what's like to live in tight living quarters.
They have absolutely nothing to be ashamed about, after all, their ancestors roamed this land long before many of our ancetors ever set food on the continent. Their native language shunned from their identity, they have been forced to speak a language non native to their land and people. We have more incommon with Mexicans than not.
It was only 8 decades ago when many of our recent ancestors arrived here not knowing a lick of english, eating potatoes both cooked and raw and squaloring in the slums of 20th century America.
They better recognize!
You say send them back to their country, this is their land. They are the descendents of the original Aboriginal Americanes. Seeing how the remaining Amerindian nations have been treated in this country, it's no wonder the disdain for Mexicans. If most of them were more caucasian in Appearance like the Cubans, they wouldn't have as much trouble.
Stink? If you worked as hard as many of them do, you wouldn't smell nice either. What did your immigrant or colonial ancestors smell like when they first arrived here with NOTHING?

How does the fact that Americans who are on welfare affect the way illegal mexicans think they can treat the American middle class? I notice you slip in about how mexicans dont beg, oh so I guess all the free rides their getting isnt begging? Please just stop your hypocritical hate rants. Admit you hate Americans and be done with it. I do not feel sorry for you at all.

Apparently it influences one person. Not me. My reason is the schools being ruined by serving too many people who can't pay enough tax to cover their kids' education costs. Even if they did, California would have to build one elementary school PER DAY to properly educate all immigrants coming (not counting our own.) Then we'd have to find qualified teachers. That is legal and illegal immigrants, and the legal are fine because we invited them. The rest are stealing my children's future. Education costs $10,000 per child per year in California.
The classes in middle school commonly have 43 or more kids in them, and a large percentage of 'teachers' are on emergency permits. Why is it ok for them to do this to our children?
This is not ok.

You are 100% right, but this also happened to the Irish people when they started immigrating in masses. Eventually Latinos will be seen just like any other American (hopefully). Feel free to read my blog where I'll be covering subjects such as this one.

Let them make a better life in Mexico....let all the illegals make a better life in their own country. Im tired of everything in Spanish..like our driving tests and voting...We have no street signs in foriegn languages....and our politics are in English.
Yes I have eaten foriegn food..some which is very good...and 20 in an apt might be exageration....but way too many in a room to be safe....
We have way too many immigrants as it is we dont need the illegals....send them all back

NO
Actually the illegal alien criminals are treated much better than they deserve. They get free everything.

If you are not an illegal, you are harboring illegals..
We have a huge number of reasons for wanting illegals out of our country.

Your joking right? Americans treat mexicans very well,we give them a free ride and the thanks we get is disrespect for our flag ,and our country.You should study your cause before you ask silly questions. Questions like yours is one reason Americans are getting tired of mexican illegals. Im not sure why I bothered to answer your question I usually get turned in for violations because you people cant take the truth so your only comback is to report. Is that how you will fight your war against america too? When our resources are gone who will pay your bills then?
