Answer 1

because the illegal immigrants are leaches on our society.
They take everything and contribute nothing.
This parasitic mentality has to be stopped.

Answer 2

Brit wanna-be ...

Don't tell us about taking things ...

Almost any superpower in being has taken things from someone and suppressed the people living there. Here's a short list of the current countries that don't have crap to say to us about how we treat illegal immigrants since they took land from others and oppressed people from resettling those lands:

England
France
Spain
Japan
China
MEXICO (look at the history of these supposedly ousted people)

If you really want to get technical ... Mexico GAVE the US this land ... look it up below, fool. And not only that ... Texas ASKED to be part of the U.S.

If you really want to feel sorry for someone, feel sorry for the Indians. Hell, I can't see TWO Indians together any more let alone an Indian FAMILY ... so for that, yeah, sorry.

But Mexicans?!?! Get real ... if they had any sense back in the day, they would have used THEIR STATUS to get the U.S. to give THEM land ... which they could have done! Back then, the U.S. and Mexico were EQUAL in status until the railroads started running and brought about the Industrial Revolution ... which currently gives about 5 million illegal immigrants jobs.

Get your fact straight, sit down, wipe the egg off your face, and shut up.

Answer 3

Wow. You seem very angry. As a 25 yr old American I am not suprised with the growing population of Mexicans I see in our country & my community. As a matter of fact, I see a rapidly growing trend of diversity in my country that I enjoy. That is what makes this country so beautiful.
As for the history of Mexico & the land, my generation is ignorant of that. The Americans living today had as much to do with that as we did with the slave trade.
Speaking for all of the young adult Americans I know, most of my generation has an open-mind to change & to other cultures.
As far as the Iraquis, Afghans, Iranians, & Palestinians go...I'm not sure what you are referring to. It's a shame you are so angry & full of hatred.

Answer 4

because of the fact white Mexicans are many times rich and in potential so as that they stay interior of their very own borders. the only Mexicans that we work together with oftentimes are mestizos or (to a lesser degree) mulattoes. consequently, we predict of of all Mexicans as being like those people, on an analogous time as no longer determining that those that are no longer desperate for money and jobs are at times of organic ecu descent, only like a lot of people. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that, people including myself know greater powerful :) @ White Queen - they don't seem to be mixed with white, they are white. Mexico has modern ecu immigrants only like us of a of america does.

Answer 5

well i don't really think that we are surprised that there are so many Mexicans here.
here is a little history lesson for you though. the USA didn't take most of the land you refer to. most of it was part of the republic of Texas which was not a part of the United States. the united states annexed it after being asked to by the republic of Texas. yes we received some land after the Mexican American war in the peace treaty, and finally we bought part of Arizona in what was the Gadsden purchase, so the US did not take the land. and most of the people coming in to the US from Mexico are not from that land anyway those people never left and have been US citizens legally for a long time. get a little research in first

Answer 6

No my friend.
Mexicans have to thank US government officials and politicians and corporations for coming together long time ago and opening the borders wide open for Mexicans to enter and get the "jobs Americans won't do" <- George Bush

So come in comply with our laws, get a job, work, and make sure you "keep consuming" <--- George Bush after 9/11
If you don't like the system here maybe you can go back protest in Mexico and change the system to the way you want it.

Became a citizen last year myself.

We will let Mexican government run this country for a month.
Will you like that?

Answer 7

OK, so I live in New Jersey and the place is crawling with Mexicans. I see them selling roses by the Pulaski sky-way all the time. So tell me when was NJ part of mexico? Oh it wasn't? Well the would it be wrong of me to tell them to leave? And guess what had the south west stayed part of mexico it would be in just as poor shape as the rest of your bul lshitt country and you would be making up even more ridiculous excuses for why you were sneaking in to the USA.

Answer 8

The questioner is right. Fact is, Mexicans are just as "American" as are those who live in the United States. I believe it is called Central America, and then further south is South America. The Europeans came to this country,worked people to death, or killed them, and brought a plethora of disease.
The Mexicans weren't diseased.
and so, here we are. Mexicans assimilated within.
The official figure is "12 million"
I believe it is closer to 25 million.
They are here to stay.

Answer 9

Mexicans lived in the southwest long before anyone else, except for Native Americans. So I don't understand why people are so surprised that there are so many Mexicans living here. Just get used to it.

Answer 10

There's nothing surprising about it. Draw an imaginary line through a desert. On one side, you place unparalelled economic opportunity, freedom, and legally mandated tollerance. On the other, you place poverty, corruption, and racism. Then you do basically nothing to keep people from crossing said immaginary line.

What results would you expect?

Where that immaginary line may have been in the past is prettymuch irrellevant.

Answer 11

the only thing that surprises me is that these people , i'm assuming you included come here an have so many babies that you cant afford an fill up our hospitals an cause my insurance to skyrocket. as for the other wishful thinking an stupidity that you seem to rant about, wow, who knows. besides check your history, Santa Anna was a fool attempting to do foolish things. they lost the land. then the U.S. also paid them for the land which they didnt need to but did. either way they cant govern themselves or make there own country great so theyll try to do the same garbage here. but hey, welcome to the U.S.A go the the welfare dept. an good luck
