I do not know why people are like that, but I LOOK AT EVERYONE AS GODS PEOPLE. I also wonder why people look down on Mexicans, they are good hard working honest people like everyone else they are bad apples in ever race. we just ask god to help them. I HAVE BEEN WITH MY BOYFRIEND FOR NINE YEARS NOW AND HE IS MEXICAN AND I really hate when I HERE SOMEONE SAY SOMETHING I USUALLY LOOSE MY TEMPER AND GIVE THEM A MOUTH FULL. I hope one day everyone can live in peace and their will be no racism. god bless you

Well there may be some that act that way, but you will find if you really read on here there are most of us that are against Illegals period. Right now the biggest fight is with the Southern Border..and excuse me if I may, but If we as Americans cannot get that right how are we to protect our country? I mean look what happened to this country on 9/11 and no I am not blaming Mexicans..If you get the point behind this, that is a scary thought if you mix the fact that we cannot even protect our borders period. Just the other day I read in the paper that a Iraq family had crossed over from one of the southern borders. Does that mean now I am against all Iraq people? No, but again think outside the box for a min. The problem stem right here in this room as a perfect example of whenever some of us report news and post as a question about something on the news new about recent updates on the Illegal immigration thing and the next thing you know you are called a racist. I have NO problem with people from any race coming over as long as they do it the LEGAL way..bust their butt and prove that they want to be apart of this great country. Are there some losers out there sure, but be that as it may there are losers in any race, creed, and religion..don't just base it on this forum get.

I am not a racist! I am strongly against the illegal alien criminal. Sure, most are from Mexico but I don't care where they are from. What part of ILLEGAL don't you understand?
I don't look at someone that is Hispanic and think "he's an illegal alien." I may wonder about status when I see a woman at the grocery story that doesn't speak any English and is paying in cash but I don't know and I don't assume.
American patriots are not tearing this country apart. The problem are the illegal alien criminals and how they are turning our country into a 3rd world country. They are sponging off the taxpayer.
Why am I at fault for the actions on over 20 million criminals? I am not mean. I just want people to obey the law. The illegal alien criminals are breaking the law PERIOD!

I don't really think its all about being racist (yea, there are some on a small percentage who are racists), but I just think that its about being tired of the system that is suppose to give rights and benefits to legal people and all the "illegals" draining the system. You also have to remember the highest percentage of illegals are form Mexico, and in case you did not know, also remember the way INS has all illegals listed in their system (key word, illegal), is under two catagories.
1 - Mexican
2 - OTM (Other than Mexican),
so what does that tell you??? But yes there are racist people out there, but for the most part its just "fed up and tired"!!!!!!

Here we go again. Sure, some people just don't like Mexicans. I like Mexicans as much as any other group of people. My wife is half Mexican. I think a lot of hatred of Mexico has been stirred up over illegal immigration, the amnesty rallies all over the U.S. where they flew the Mexican flag. In Maywood California where they tore down the U.S. flag over the post office and put up a Mexican flag. There is a strong movement underway through college professors and politicians to 'reclaim' America, the reconquistas, Atzlan, Mecha, La Raza, etc. The Mexican extremists aren't doing themselves any favor in the eyes of most Americans. If you want to be the spokesperson for all Mexicans, then tell your people to chill out and show some respect.

Actually when I see a mexican, I don't judge him b/c he is a mexican, at a lot of my jobs, I have worked with many, many mexicans and the majority of them , they are all extremely hard working and funny and love to have a good time. They can say crude things sometimes, and sometimes talk in spanish about you, but who doesn't do **** like that? I personally think that mexicans who come into this country, Legally, shouldn't have any discriminations against them. They work harder than some of the jobless / homeless people that were BORN in this country. They know what they want, and they get it. They save all their money and are nice and courteous to everybody and mind their own bussiness. I think that reason that most people see mexicans in a harsh way b/c they only hear about them jumping the border. ANd obviously its a lot easier for them, and latin america to do so, b/c there is no boat to cross .. you just have to jump in the back of a truck. Sometimes you gotta do what u gotta do. I mean, no body wants some of the jobs they have anyway, so why do they care if they come here and make their living and go home? They only problem I have is when they come here and drive like maniacs and get into accidents, and a lot of the time have no insurance. Thats why we should start better kinds of immigration laws that really help the people who are serious about coming into this country and work hard to get citizen ship. B/C if being a U.S. citizen is that important to you, then you won't mind going thru all the red tape to get it. As far as Latinos and other non- caucasian i guess you could say, Mexicans also seem to be the only race in this country that don't prance around and rant and rave about how their looked down upon or that they are victims of harassment. And for some reason, their race is the majority of which gets such discrimination. Ironic I think. Who knows.. their such hard workers we might wake up one day, after complainging about them and talkin ****.. and they will be the majority of population with the best jobs b/c they work for all they have. Well I guess that was a lot of writing i did LoL.. I just felt compelled to say what I felt.

We're tired of being everyones patsy. It's not a race issue. you realize that the United States is only 6% of the world's population, but yet were expected to take care of over half the world's problems. Enforcement of UN resolutions, yada yada yada. And this is our fault And who's fitting the bill? We are as usual. We just need to clean up our own yard fist, it needs alot of work.

do you know what racism is? define the word. going by your definition, that is nothing but "stereotype". It is not racism and they both are highly different. However, stereotyping is wrong. I agree that not all Mexicans are illegal. It is fact that the majority of illegals are from Mexico because the border is closest to the United States. We are not making this statistic up. It is fact. second, when "illegal immigrant" is mentioned by anyone, it is you and others that immediately assume we are referencing Mexicans despite the fact we have never even mentioned Mexican people. It is also fact that "illegal immigrant" is not a race and to assume that we are talking about Mexicans prove that you are the actual one that is racist or stereotypical.
