Why Caucasian Americans they think Hispanic immigrant & Hispanic Americans they think that we are Cartels???

Question

Hi am Latino & American. Why Caucasians Americans they are calling us Hispanics (criminals or Cartels?) And why Caucasians are calling Arabic's people are Terrorist? Ok let of us be professionals & let of us talk like human beings. First of all, in my life of personal experience, I think "some" Caucasians Americans are the most racist,judgmental & misunderstanding people that I have experience.

Ok my family they came to the U.S. for a better life & to survive. Because my parents they don't make enough. We could have choose to live to Canada or Spain but, we prefer America. Mexicans are NOT the only ones to comes to America illegally ? And Mexicans they do NOT come across the border with caring RPG,Russian AK-47, or Suicide boomer's like boarders of Israeli or Lebanon. Yes there are drug trafficking promblem & which happens around the globe & even London! What makes you guys perfect anyways & think that U.S. has perfect country?

I am not trying to argue. I am just tired of it!!!

God Bless!!!

Hi "Patio" thank you for responding. But, why are you telling me your ethnic?

Answer 1

I do not believe all "Caucasian" Americans think Hispanic immigrants and Hispanic Americans (citizens) are criminals.

You are misinformed.
Most Americans, not just "Caucasians", welcome legal immigrants, from all nations, including Mexico.

American citizens of all ethnic groups and nationalities, are sick of illegal aliens who come into the USA to take take take, who ARE criminals, who broke the law when they came here illegally, who do not have the legal right to live or work in the USA, who have no respect for our laws.

All foreign nationals, including Mexicans are required to immigrate LEGALLY.
People who enter the USA illegally are not "immigrants" because they did not apply to enter legally and go through the legal immigration procedure.

When you violate the law you are a criminal. When you enter the USA illegally you violate the law, therefore you are a criminal.

It is racist if you think that Hispanics, or Mexican hispanics should be given some kind of preferential treatment, it means that you think hispanics are better than everyone else.
If you think Hispanics should not have to be arrested and deported when they break the law, by coming into the USA illegally, then YOU are the racist one.

Do you know whan American citizens of ALL races (white, black, hispanic, asian, native American indian) are just tired of? Illegal aliens who do not respect or obey our immigration laws, or any other law.
If you cannot immigrate legally, stay out.

edit: just for you patio, I happen to be full blood, First Nations, U.S. native American indian, tribal elder.

Answer 2

I don't have a problem with any LEGAL immigrants coming into the U.S. since I married a legal immigrant!!

Illegal immigrants have broken the law once; how many of them will break the law again?

If the President grants amnesty to illegals then certainly people applying for visa and petitions legally should be granted wishes to remain in the U.S. Where does that leave us standing?

I have a strong opinion on this topic because I am a U.S. citizen who married someone on a J1 visa that entered legally. Because he had a 2 year home rule restriction we were not allowed to remain together in the U.S. even after appealing our case for two years. Although the government acknowledged that we were legally married they still denied us. I had to choose between my family, career, and home or my husband. I chose to be with him and left everything behind.
If I must leave the U.S to be with my husband then it seems only right that illegal immigrants should not be allowed to stay.

Answer 3

I personally have never seen any caucasian American make this claim. However, I have seen Americans of all races say that many ILLEGALimmigrants break the law once they get here and some of the things they do are terrible & horrific.
No, Mexicans (which is not a race, but a nationality) are not the only illegal immigrants. But they do make up the majority of illegals in this country. By coming to this country illegally they are causing a lot of damage .
White people are NOT the only ones against illegal immigration.
And yes, some of my ancestors where Native American Indians !!

Hello My Friend.

You are stereotyping all White (caucasian) people in your above question. That is also racist but lets talk for a minute......

I understand your perception especially given some of the answers here in Yahoo answers. Not all of us and as a matter of fact only a small (very very small) minority of caucasins fall into your definition as stated above "Caucasians Americans are the most racist,judgmental & misunderstanding people ".

Speaking for myself. My ancestors legally immigrated to the United States. When they did they also faced the same if not worse prejudices than you. My Great-Great-Grandfather came to America through Ellis Island. He didn't speak English nor did he understand the customs of America. He spoke German, and Norweigan.

When he came to America he worked in a sweatshop until he earned and saved enough money to buy a small farm in which to raise his family. Nobody gave him anything, he worked hard and earned enough to provide for his family.
He also chose to teach his children ONLY the English language and insisted that English was the ONLY spoken language in his home. He did so because he knew that in order to be successful in the United States his children had to adapt to the American culture. As such he was smart enough to realize that speaking the national language "English" the basic necessity for success. As such his children and their children assimulated into the American culture. When the United States went to war he and his sons fought and died for this country and its value system and will do so again if the need arises.

Caucasian Americans, Mexican Americans, African-Americans, Martian Americans...Just plain AMERICANS are not against immigration but Americans are against Illegal immigration. Whether or not the illegal immigrant is from Mexico, Africa, England, Spain, Mars, Iran, India, or Jupiter it is really pretty simple if a immigrant is here legally then welcome to the United States.... If not then the law breaker should be caught detained and deported...

Yes, I am caucasian white... I also have cousins and nephews who are Mexican-Americans, African Americans... There is no distiction in my family. We are Americans first and foremost. You have to remember that we fought a war called the Civil war to insure all Americans regardless of color, creed, origin.. were granted the same rights under the law of the land...

Perhaps you should re-evaluate your thinking. There is enough prejudice in the world without adding more. America is a land of laws and as Americans we expect and demand that those laws be adhered to by one and all.

Finally...if you were my neighbor and you are in the United States legally you would find a friend, not an enemy. I know this because in my neighborhood I like and respect all our neighbors....Irregardless of race, creed, culture.. My neighborhood has African Americans, Korean Americans, Mexican Americans, Caucasian Americans...simply Americans in it. All the children play together and we the parents of the kids often help one another. That is the hidden strength of America.... Diversity, friendship, tolerance, and understanding of ALL American citizens based on the premis that everyone follows and obeys the law of the land...

Answer 5

I do hope you see the irony of calling the people who created this great country that provides 'a better life for so many who are un-deserving and un-grateful' racist, judgmental, and misunderstanding. What names do you reserve for those running your old home country.

We were not represented in the immigration law changes and are not happy that 'our less than perfect country' gets more third world every day.

Answer 6

Ignorance is all over the place. That's why a few people assume all Mexicans or Hispanics are illegal immigrants and they probably believe all Arab or Muslim people are terrorists.

Answer 7

Well this a good example of the racism that you want to accuse others of. Read your own question.

This is the immigration section, and let me tell you Americans don't want ILLEGAL immigrants from ANY country. A whole lot of people want to come to the US for a "better life" not everyone can, it would be impossible for everyone who wanted to come to be allowed to come.

50% of Hispanic American want the illegals deported. Black Americans want the illegals deported. And Yes, White Americans want the illegals deported too. Stop trying to make this an issue of race, it's not, and never has been.

Answer 8

The "caucasian american" as you call it, has welcomed immigrants for a hundred years to the U.S. It's the ILLEGALS who aren't welcome because they spit on our Constitution and disobey our laws.
Americans of all colors welcome immigrants. So your question doesn't make sense.

Answer 9

Wow! Get that chip off and feed the homeless angry amigo!

Answer 10

Some people are intolerant of any race other than their own. It shows their total ignorance. i have also noticed when traveling in the U.S.A. that they seem to have more than their fair share of bigots, but generally speaking, I think that the decent people far outweigh the few. Unfortunately the racists are a very vocal bunch. Apparently they seem to think if they are loud, nobody will notice they are stupid....WRONG! They one thing they forget is, unless they are Native Indian, they are also descendants of immigrants, who arrived there, looking for a better life.
