Why do mexican americans want to group Mexican Illegal immigration to other latinos?

Question

Why do other Latinos have to be grouped with this. Why is it that whenever someone speaks spanish in this country they get associated with what MEXICO AND MEXICANS are doing to ruin Americas immigration system.

Why do Americans even associate Mexicans with Cubans, Argentinians, Dominicans, Chileans, Spaniards. Its like associating haitians with french. Please america don't group other latinos by what MEXICO is doing for their own economic interest!

Look I am latino and dont look like one of these border crossers....that is a misconception that all latinos are like mexicans. Go to Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Puerto Rico etc and you will see what I mean. Totally different people and culture.

America needs to stop grouping other latinos with Mexicans....that is racist.

Look bro dont associate me with this illegal immigration garbage. THis is what Im talking about. Dont associatte ME with illegal MEXICANS we have no relation.

Answer 1

Because they are trying to minimalize the fact that illegal Mexican immigrants are swarming America. When they tie themselves to other latino nations they attempt to diffuse the concentration of Mexicans by cloaking them in the guise of Latin America. Luckily, educated Americans can see right through this facade. Everytime I see stories of illegals being deported it makes me very happy to know that someone cares about our country. Yay!

Answer 2

So . . . uh . . . what are Mexicans like?

The Mexicans I've known have been good, generous, Catholic, family-oriented people who would die for their children and do even the most menial things to keep afloat. They are resourceful, humble and perpetually happy.

I guess I can understand if you don't want to be like that.

Maybe you don't look Mexican. But you say that like they are some how unattractive. Mexicans may not have the post WWII influx of eastern and central European running through their veins, but the Aztec and Incan look/body type is definitely more attractive than most.

Answer 3

We have plenty of OTM illegal hispanics here. But you may have a point that they do not have the same agenda as the Mexicans. I really don't know, though. I do know that most of them get here by traveling through Mexico. Is that how Mexicans handle their illegals? Send them over which ever border is closer? Of course I've heard that they do much worse to them.

Answer 4

From south of the Rio Grande down to Patagonia, a bit lighter a bit darker, that doesn´t make us different from one another. We are all the same, were latinos and some of us are to be proud one.
Get a grip man, I´m not mexican I´m chilean and although what you say about americans not being able to tell the difference is true, you seem to want to be dissociated from our mexican brothers, do you want to be considered special?.

Answer 5

As you can see by illegal mexicans answer they dont like it if you don't want to be part of their group.

If your not an illegal and tryin to promote the illegals then you don't have to worry about it. no matter where you are from.

Answer 6

Thats like saying all white people live in trailers and walk bare foot and get beaten on COPS

Answer 7

Don't know. Also, many people don't realize that Brazilians don't speak Spanish.

Interestingly, 53% of all Hispanics in the U.S. want illegal aliens deported. (source: poll in summer of 2006).

Answer 8

99% are illegals. The oath of Latin America is no Mexican shall give up loyalty to the country they are from. Mexicans care about Mexicans , just like Baptist hang around other baptist

Answer 9

honestly, because they are similar in appearance and they speak Spanish as a primary language.
