Why are illegal Hispanics comparing their cause to MLK's Civil Rights Movement?

Question

This pisses me off so bad! Their situation and what they are fighting for which is AMNESTY, has nothing to do with Civil Rights. They are marching in the parade this weekend. Why aren't leaders from the African American community pissed and speaking out about this? Most Mexicans dont like blacks anyway!

Uhh Amber explain how is that playing into a stereotype, you might not want to admit the truth, but its the truth...I said most not all mexicans, and its the truth...some think they are superior to everyone else.

Marching for rights, what rights does an illegal have?!! Other than the right to leave the country.

illegals claim that they are fighting for rights, when in fact they are fighting for AMNESTY to stay in a country where they have broken laws. MLK was fighting for equal rights for people of color, who where NOT in this country ILLEGALLY. Now you tell me...is that the same cause? I think not.

Last detal b/c yahoo answers doesn't consume my life...I live in TX, Mexicans outnumber blacks..havent you ever heard of all the gang related, school fights, prison fights between the two races. You people need to watch/read the news. I have no problem with people of other races. I do respect this country and its laws, and I don't like people who dont...which would be illegals.

Answer 1

They are doing it just to make noise!! They know they have no legal rights in the US so they think they can come into the US and just take over! They don't care about American laws or American citizens. What part of illegal don't they understand????

American women, then African Americans were fighting for civil rights. As American citizens, they had every right to fight for those civil rights. Illegals don't have any rights because they are not US Citizens!!

Every American (white, black, asian, european, etc) needs to stand up against illegal immigration!!!!

Answer 2

These damn mexicans remind me of the gays. The gays also try to compare their struggle to ours. I might have to go out there to the parade this weekend in LA and hand out Pro Legal pamphlets. Equal rights for those who come here legally! MLK didn't wasnt speaking about people who are a part of illegal activity. And yes, a good "Majority" of them dont like black people. They only piggy back on our causes on tv. But when the cameras are down and its behind closed doors or on the street. Theyre back to calling us mayates and ni66ers.

And @ mixed girl. How the fock do they have it hard??? America is heaven to them. They are imposing themselves upon America, legal or illegal. Wake up and smell the bullshat that has been put before you.

Answer 3

I agree with your last statement although I hate to declare it publicaly because it might make me sound rascist without people knowing me personaly lol. But Mexican and blacks do have a history of hating each other, or atleast in my area! I also live in Tx, around Dallas and that's the main reason of fights because of gang fights and there always opposite colors (mexican and black). I remember being in 9th grade and our school got evacuated early because of a mexican gang was going to do a drive by right when the school let out and to a rival black gang; someone was shot who made someone angry who went and killed one of the rivals just stupid. And there was another real bad one that let a full out riot (same above reason) at my school and they had helicopters, canines, the cops had shotguns, m16's, police going into dirt fields with there damn cars going crazy chasing kids down to stop fighting because they didn't know if people were going to start shooting.

And not even mention all the damn damage that the mexicans did last year when they protested to Dallas in our downtown area. They all looked stupid and immature, kids cutting class just to be on tv and to destroy the city. That's the way to make a name for yourself.

Okay that was a little venting >.<, but I don't think they should be comparing there rights to the Civil Rights movement at all they did it peacefully without violence and hateful words! I would also make another remark but that would be going way overboard.

Answer 4

Oh, they'll say anything to try to justify their being in the USA ILLEGALLY:

"All Americans are illegal immigrants", or
"All Americans are immigrants", or
"Even the Native Americans are immigrants"
"There's no such thing as an American"
"People from the USA are "United Statesians" (not), or
"The black people fought for their rights and got them, they changed laws, the illegal immigrants can too", (not! those people were forced to come here against their will, they didn't willingly come on their own, knowing the laws of country)
"Americans are 'racist', act like nazi's or the KKK", BS!! If we were they'd all be gassed already, tar-and-feathered, or worse.

Those illegal aliens will say or do ANYTHING to pi$$ off Americans. They're just a bunch of hot air, a lot of HOOEY!!

Answer 5

African American Community is alot smarter than you think. The community understands and remember history. It is myth that African American & Mexicans do not get along. There is mutual respect between Cultures.You read too much into the youths gangs, and they are youths. What group is comparing MLK' Civil Rights Movement,?

Answer 6

NOT TO PISS YOU OFF!!! BUT WHERE IN THE HELL DID YOU HEAR THAT MEXICAN PEOPLE DON'T LIKE BLACK PEOPLE???? WHAT IS WRONG WITH MEXICAN PEOPLE FIGHTING FOR AMENESTY??? MOST AFRICAN AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE FREE NOW. IF YOU ARE TRYING TO GET HATE TO STOP, THERE IS NOTHING TO DO ABOUT THAT. YOU CAN'T CONTROL HOW PEOPLE FEEL. ALSO, YOU ARE MAKING SOME AFRICAN AMERICAN PEOPLE LOOK REALLY IGNORANT. WHY ARE YOU GOING UP AGAINST ANOTHE GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT ARE HAVING IT HARD TO?? I KNOW THAT IT IS NOT THE SAME THING AS SLAVERY. WHY NOT BRING UP ABOUT WHAT JEWISH PEOPLE WENT THROUGH?? THEY WERE BADLY MISTREATED TO. HOW COULD YOU BE SO HATEFUL???AND YES, I DO HAVE BLACK IN ME.AND IF IT BOTHERS YOU SO MUCH WHY DON'T YOU START A MARCHING MOVEMENT??? I EXCEPTED THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HATE.PLUS, I LIVED IN SAN ANTONIO , TEXAS BEFORE.


@ AMERICA BORICUA WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? IT SEEMS TO BE MORE OF THE PUERTO RICANS THAT ARE HATING. GET OUT MORE AND WAKE UP AND SMELL THE CAFE. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN BLACK PEOPLE WANT TO STAND UP AND SAY SOMETHING!!! PLEASE, PEOPLE NEED TO STOP BEING SO OVER DRAMATIC@BLACK PEOPLE.

Answer 7

The call for amnesty for undocumented aliens is a civil rights issue. I don't agree with it, but from a legal perspective there are parallels with MLK's political activism of the 1960s.

With undocumented aliens, as was the case with black americans, there are double standards and hypocrisy. Millions of corporations, companies, and private contractors knowingly employ undocumented aliens, paying poverty wages, and denying medical benefits, thus leaving american taxpayers to foot the bill for emergency medical coverage for injuries and sicknesses that ironically are propogated at the workplace. Further, these employers of illegal aliens circumvent collective bargaining with unions, thus eliminating jobs held by american citizens. In the meantime, corporate executives line their pockets with bonuses and stock options from improved bottom lines resulting from reduced labor costs. Oh, and by the way, these employers take out income and social security taxes from the undocumented workers.

Further, we see millions of private citizens. hiring undocumented nannies, gardeners, landscapers, babysitters and housekeepers knowing full well that they are undocumented. We also see millions of citizens patronizing businesses that hire illegal aliens.

So, you see, there are human rights and civil rights issues. Companies and individuals continue to hire undocumented workers, and reap the benefits of cheap labor, and turn around and complain about illegal immigrants coming into the US.

You can't have it both ways. If you are offering jobs to aliens, at least give them some sort of legal status. If you don't want illegal aliens here, then don't offer them jobs.

Answer 8

Because they know nothing about MLK. I am sure the doctor would not want illegal aliens taking jobs away from Americans.

Answer 9

ha ha r u still pissed? lol good, n also to all the haters lol you poor souls, is just tooo bad if you dont like it. things have a way of fixing them selves, you know the sayign wht goes around comes around. You cant change destiny. Your jealousy is pathetic, i actually feels sorry for you, you can hate all you want, wont affect me anyway, lol your the one whos gonna have heart attack with such atittitude lol your gonna burst like a balooon!!

Answer 10

because they want sympathetic Democratic scumbags to pander to their cause. It will work too, soon Nancy Pelosi will be handing over the keys to your house to some illegal immigrant she wants to give amnesty to so they can leach off Medicare, Social Security and other social services that are dying as it is.
