The U.S. media usually portrays immigrants from Mexico as low-lifes that are coming to California to get on government programs or send money back to Mexico, but the majority of immigrants from Mexico don't do that. I know there are illegal immigrants that just want to take advantage of what California has to offer. I'm not talking about illegals. Do Californians really think legal immigrants from Mexico are causing that much of a problem for them? My theory is that liberals want to make this seem like a bigger problem than it really is in order to make it appear to the public that George W. Bush doesn't care about controlling immigration.

Supermom, If you don't think people should be discussing this, then you should have told liberals to stop putting Lou Dobbs' specials about illegal immigrants on CNN. This is not something Republicans stay up at night worrying about. It's the Democrats who say that immigrants from Mexico are destroying California. Personally, I don't give one flying flip why you think I'm single. Put that in your peace pipe and smoke it.

My biggest gripes on immigrants from Mexico is that some do not take the time to learn the prevailing language of the community they live in and still wave the Mexican flag on US soil. If the country was so great then why do they immigrate to the US? I don't mind the immigration rallies, since that is how this nation was built upon, but please be educated about the country and waive the correct flag(US Flag). Also don't assume that because I look like I speak Spanish that I do.

The Governor is a Republican. Did you omit that factor? He has run a deficit as severe as gray Davis, ignored that one too. Who cares if Mexico cares? yet we can't get a dime. you may no longer get something from somebody or a u . s . a . that has no longer something. California has been residing with Mexico on account that statehood. Yeah there are some dirtball illegals yet like maximum persons or races, the popular public are solid no longer undemanding working human beings. One final ingredient, border administration is a federal accountability. George Bush, yet another Republican, ought to care much less with reference to the illegals entering this u . s . a . and my state. Your frustration is misguided and disingenuous. EDIR: Bush relatives Memeber; you nevertheless don't get it do you. For the previous dozen years the GOP ruled congress and handed NO real immigration rules or made any differences. NONE. The border is a federal accountability and it leaks worse than a Bush record. Sorry chum yet your loved ones are all corrupt mendacity whores. If the shoe suits positioned on it chum.

I can't speak for all Californians but I can speak for a few... I have several cousins, an aunt and two uncles in Cali.
Their opinion of Mexicans is not good. They believe that the massive influx of illegals has destroyed their culture. Btw, they have lived there since 1972. They have watched their culture go from a typical suburb to feeling like they are living in Mexico.
So to answer your question from some of my relatives pt of view, yes they do hate them.

it is unfortunate that the general consensus in California is rather pitiful.
Mexicans, illegal or otherwise are, for all intents and purposes, what might be called a visible minority with a stigma attached. with a stigma, usually, comes the stereo type. when people from other countries visit the U S A and resemble these Mexicans, they are shunned and made very uncomfortable.
there seems to be no immediate cure for this ill. meanwhile, for erroneous purposes victims will continue to suffer indefinitely.
how bizarre.

I'm a Californian-coming from an immigrant parent, I don't really agree what you're saying. Are you a Californian at all?...everybody is trying to blame us, when we ought to be focusing on other important issues; like poverty, hunger, global warming, over spending and oil scarcity. Nobody should be blaming on anybody but ourselves.
Hey, if you don't like California just leave, easy as that. Is no wonder you're still single, you haven't attained full growth.

I live in California San Diego. I don't hate immigrants. It is what it is.
I'm not worried about them taking my job because the jobs that they do take are mainly unskilled. If you have lost your job to an illegal emigrant then you need to strongly consider a college edcucation or improving your own work skills. Stop blaming your lack of skills and education on immigrants. You as an american have every oppoortunity to go to college if you really want.

Youre right Mexican immigrants dont cause any problems, but their offspring do. I am a mexican and my mom is illegal so this isnt a racist thing but the children of illegal immigrants usually raise themselves seeing as their parents are always working. For much of my childhood i would be without any parents from the time i got home from school to 7 pm. If you look at their children youll see most of them become cholos and waste their life.

Californians hate Mexicans because they lose their jobs due to lower salaries being accepted by illegals.
