Amazing how stupid some people are and how eagerly they display it in their answers.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I think the array of answers you get in here show that most Americans are ignorant and self absorbed.
In case you were wondering, they also think that all Asians are Chinese, all Germans are Nazis, and that French Fries are French. |

Yes we know, but we also know the most criminal of the illegals are from Mexico. As for walking around speaking Spanish, enjoy, but are you a mindreader to know what people think. I seriously doubt anyone comes up to you and gives you crap about it. |

There are many terms incorrectly and interchangeably used.
Immigrant - A person not born in the United States that is granted permission and enters for the purpose of living here.
Illegal Alien - A person who enters the United States without proper authorization. Often incorrectly called Illegal Immigrant. |

Mexico, Guatemala, Ecuador, Puerto Rico it's all part of the same brown cesspool.
And the fact that you were born here but still refuse to speak English in public shows that non-white hispanics, born here or elsewhere, are unable to assimilate.
Asians assimilate after one generation. So do Europeans. So why not you mexicans? |

If you don't speak English you obviously are a 1st 2nd or 3rd generation immigrant. That's a fact. Americans speak English.
Deal with it. |

Most people know this and all legal immigrants are welcome. People have a problem with illegal immigrants. These illegals also come from all over the world but the majority of illegals in America are from Mexico.
The main concern with Hispanics is that they refuse to integrate into the local communities and create ghettos where only Spanish is spoken. What is the problem of learning the wider spoken language of the country as anyone would expect an English speaker living in a Spanish speaking country to do. |

Yes. According to Pew Hispanic center 57% are from Mexico, 75% from Latin America all together, and 25% from elsewhere.
Also, government estimates tell us that 50% of Mexican nationals here are illegally here.
However, I understand that our #2 source of illegal immigration is India. |

No sorry you can't. If I as a white person I walked around speaking German or Russian....people would probably think I was an immigrant.....If I went to Mexico speaking English.......the mexicans would probably think I was a tourist or immigrant?
If I wore a cop uniform you would think I was a cop? Why?
Not all racist are white either. Mexico is far more racist than America is.....Compare the skin color of the politicians and wealthy to those who are immigrans/laborers.
Besides what's wrong with speaking English? If Southor central America was so great don't come to America. If you do come to America for a better life learn the language and adopt the culture. If you don't you will always appear like immigrants and foreigners |

First of all, the issue is NOT legal immigrants.
The issue is ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. Period. Regardless of what country they are from. YOU are the one that brought up race.
Illegal aliens from over 140 countries were deported last year. Deport them all, no matter what country they are from. |

Well, I dont know about what the people in whatever state you live in think, but im white and not a racist and yes I do realize that not all imigrants are from Mexico...there are even white immigrants. Dont let what other people think or the paranoia you have about what other people think affect the way you live. Life is too short! |

There are many racist people out there that are ignorant. They are just jealous that they are not bilingual. I wouldn't pay attention to it. Who says you can't speak spanish go ahead speak it loud and be proud! No dejes que los racistas ganen! Also there are many WHITE immigrants! Canadians, Irish, Armenians, Russians, Australians, the English, etc. Half of the world speaks spanish! Also lets not forget our friends in Spain! |
