Here are some of the requirements for a country whose citizens can visit the US without a visa.

The country must have a very low non-immigrant refusal rate (as explained in Section 217 (c)(2)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act); and

The incidence of nationals of the country traveling as nonimmigrant visitors who are denied admission, withdraw their application, and violate the terms of a VWP admission is less than two percent of the total number of nonimmigrant nationals traveling to the U.S. during the previous fiscal year.

There are more but this is the most important criteria. Racial discrimination is not a factor at all.**

Please Read:

Citizens and permanent residents of Mexico generally must have a nonimmigrant visa or Border Crossing Card (also known as a "Laser Visa"). The Border Crossing Card, Form DSP-150 is a biometric, machine readable, visitor B1-B2 visa/Border Crossing Card that may be used to enter the U.S. from within the Western Hemisphere.**

There are certain countries that can come to the USA without visa's. UK is one of them and so is Mexico. I don't know what you mean about Mexican not allowed to come into this country but you are gravely misinformed? I think you need to do some more studying and research. Mexicans do not need visa's to visit and I mean visit USA. The problem is some of them stay longer than their visa is for. So their is no racism in our immigration laws. Due to the Terrorist attack by the Racist Radical Muslims we now require a passport to enter the USA from Canada and Mexico. You see Racist means you believe one sect or race is better than another race. So therefore by definition Immigration can not be racist. Please get your facts straight.

Since when? If you will read our Immigration Laws, I doubt that you'll find many mentions about specific countries other than enemy countries. I think the laws apply. And how is it racist to have uniform laws? There are black people in the UK and other people of color and our laws don't discriminate. Mexicans have no rights whatsoever to call anyone racists.

Because we have a different type of treaty with the UK than we have with Mexico. And for good reason. It's not about skin color, it's about location and the number of people trying to get in.

Because the majority of the Mexicans who come violate their word and the law and stay. UK visitors for the most part leave on time.

People from the UK, are not well known for over staying their visas. They also do not march in our streets, demanding rights.

I don't know maybe it has something to do with the fact that there aren't millions of Brits bankrupting our social services system, or maybe because I don't see 50 Brits standing on street corners either waiting for work or whatever than not paying taxes on what they make, that pays for the billions for the social services system they then use, or maybe it has to do with the increasing amount of violence and vehicular crimes being done by illegal immigrants not the British, maybe THAT has something to do with it. Ya think!!!

It has to do with the visa failure rate. Meaning those from the UK mostly go back at the end of their visa time.

not true. More people from Latin America can and are coming here more legally and illegally (like yourself) than people from Europe. Liberals like more restrictions on those coming from Europe than those coming from Latin america. Why? Because libs are racists themselves. They hate the white man.

Because people from the UK go home when their visit is up. Mexicans don't.
