I liked them a few years ago. Then I moved to California. Now I know what they are really like. I hate them now.

I have no problem with any ethnic group, but I am opposed to the illegals who are dragging this country down.

I never really knew Mexicans a few years ago. Only the ones thru marriage and I really didnt "know" them.
The ones I know now I think are great for the most part. But just like people of every race, I cant stand some. Its a give and take situation.

I liked Mexicans a few years ago. I like Mexicans more now, because I know more of them. But criminals are not exempt from immigration and labor laws regardless of their nationality. Being Mexican is a nationality not a race.

I wouldn't say that I 'liked' them before.....I didn't have a problem with them. After the way they acted during last year's protests and marches I realized what kind of people they actually are and no, I do not like them now. It is very obvious they hate us and as far as I'm concerned, the feeling is mutual. I have no use and no respect for people who burn our flag, demand rights, and scream racial insults to us while they are standing in OUR country illegally. Sorry, but no. If they have a problem with Americans, the best thing they can do is go home to Mexico and never return. Americans aren't going to tolerate their behavior. And if anyone sees my answer as 'racist'...well, too bad. I'm not going to be forced into liking those who HATE me. It's not gonna happen.

Anyone that answers this question with anything other than..."I would have to meet them first and then decide" is an outright racist.
How could you even ask this question as if a Mexican is a type of food or a TV show or something you can make a blanket opinion about....THEY ARE PEOPLE!!! Just because you don't like one Mexican doesn't mean you are not going to like them all, and just because you had a positive experience with one Mexican does not mean that you will have a positive experience with them all.
Come on now...

I'm bit of a misanthrope. My natural tendency is to have a mild dislike for all people, even though I can come to like and apreciate individuals once I get to know them.
Mexicans are people.
What I really dislike, though, are political movements that promote a race or nationality at the expense of others, especially here, in America. The recent marches that may have soured your opinion of Mexicans, in general, were orgnaized by such movements, and I'd encourage you to re-direct your ire at them, not at everyone they purport to represent.

When I meet anyone it is with an open mind until proven wrong. Unfortunately due to my job I get to meet a huge proportion of Mexicans on the wrong side of the law, however, I do like many that I do meet in general as they are just people like you and me.

I have never disliked Mexicans as a group, except for a certain few select ones. My grandfather employed them in his construction company--no, I don't know if any were illegal (it was years ago and I was too young to care about such things)--so I grew up around them.

How come you have to get offensive here? I don't really care to hear that, you only ask this dumb question to spit your hate against Mexicans, and so all these racists and these anti-illegals can go along with you. You need to find yourself something else to do.
Look "âªÏhiteÄırlâª," how can you assume they are all illegal? You don't, you are ignorant.

Legal Mexicans are great people, they have strong family ties and are generous and hardworking. Illegal mexicans have forever tainted these legal hardworkers and providers, they are grubby freeloaders who are for the most part outcasts from a third world country. Good job illegals....you do more than enough damage to your own kind. It makes the rest of Americans jobs to demoralize you easy....HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa
