I do not hate anyone especially because of their race. I do respect anyone who is willing to do anything they can to provide for their families and seek opportunity to better themselves at all costs. I think it is unfortunate that there are governments that turn their backs on their people and encourage them to go to another country rather than identify and resolve the country's problems.

The United States of America was founded on the promise of opportunity for immigrants. Today, however, the USA is one of the most taxed nations. Therefore it can provide for the best infrastructure and social support in the world for our legal residents. There are legal methods for immigrants to gain access to these unprecedented benefits.

So I do respect all legal US immigrants from all races. Those that chose to disregard our immigration laws and are subsequently forced to disregard our tax and labor laws disappoint and frustrate me. I can understand what drove them to those ends but unfortunately the means do not justify the ends.

Personally, I love Latinos. Just not the illegal ones.

I go to Mexico a lot. Have always thought it was one of the greatest places in the world. And the people are great. It's one of the FEW places in the world, that the service industry....is actually an industry. And people at least ACT like they enjoy their jobs.

But, if we allow one segment of our society to ignore the law (while sending another to jail), pretty soon it will be nothing but common criminals running America....much like you see in some parts of Mexico now.

I can only speak for myself. I grew up as a Texas Catholic. I admired Hispanics and always felt very close to them!
Then THEY changed! It began with a movement they called the Battle of the Crib. I watched in dismay at what could only be called an act of war against this Country's sovereignty! Town by Town, Pachuca's harrased and intimidated Gringo's out! Reverse discrimination followed by drug Gangs followed by Political activism!
There is not a Country on this Planet (Other than this collection of dimwits) that would ever view a mass protest of thousands of illegal invaders as anything other than an act of war!
I realize and I try to understand that the whole situation is our fault! WE encourage the Illegals to have Anchor Babies! Lord knows we reward the parents for it! WE allow our employers to hire un-documented workers in lieu of our own people depriving ourselves of tax revenues while adding to legitimate unemployment and welfare! WE offer benefits and schooling to people that should be handed over and deported!
WE are the one's at fault and WE need to chastize our own for selling US out!
Hispanics and all the other invaders are merely the symptoms of the problem!

But, the BELLIGERENT aproach adopted by the Hispanics is going to wake a bunch of stupid people up-and then, the Hispanics are going to face the wrath of a problem WE created!

Fair, no! But, you are doing the exact things you should know better than to do!-Especially the TOO MANY, TOO FAST!

If you really want American Lifestyles-Force YOUR leaders to Join us! We have added many States in the past! Why should the Mexican States be any different!

I won't say I hate them. I will say that I don't think that illegals deserve to be in my country. I think illegals needs to be deported and possibly maimed (that's a joke that no one will get). Status does matter, people here legally are playing by the rules and are living in America just like my grandparents did when they came in the 1930s.

I do not hate anyone because of their race or national origin. But if one is here illegally, then they are my enemy. They have broken the law, and I am sworn to uphold that law. I have many Latino friends, some so close to me that I consider them family, and would gladly die to protect them. This is not a race issue, but it is a legal issue. If a person or group of people break one law, what would stop them from breaking alot of laws?

The racism that exists in the United States targets the:Mestizo,Black,Multiracial Latin Americans,but not the White Latin Americans.Latin America(as a whole) is very racially & ethnically diverse just like the U.S.A.

I try not to hate any people. I dislike the fact that people are here illegally, but that is not limited to Mexicans. I better not hate Latinos, because I married one. Also, Italians are considered some of the first Latinos (since they were Latin based people) and some my family was from Italy, so I would be hating myself.

I don't hate anybody. I just don't want you here. You want me to conform to your ways in my own nation; yet if Americans ever try to live like Americans while in Mexico there is no accomodation. Why would any right thinking Anglo American want to even bother? We don't hate you as a people...you're just a really lousy neighbor. Why can't you be more like the nice folks in Canada? I would loan Canada my circular saw...but not Mexico.

I hate everybody and I love everybody. I don't look at what race they are in, I just see if they breathe or not. Also, I am not a USA people. I look Mexican, and am, but I don't really like being called by any race.

Status matters. Those legally here are our guests and the only discussion is going forward how many can we take, given how many are already here. Those illegally here come above our limits and take education funds from our children's schools, and health care funds from our sick. Our schools are failing. I wouldn't say I hate all of them automatically, but I absolutely resent them. They are stealing.

Legals aren't.
