If Mexicans are decent people, why don't they leave America?

They should realize by now that they are not wanted here. They should go home, when the host shows the guest the door, that's what a decent guest does.

What I want to know is whenever someone mentions "illegal immigrants," why do the Mexicans automatically assume the fingers are being pointed at them?
People from all around the world come here illegally, not just the Mexicans. One thing I will mention all the illegals have in common is wanting a better life. However, there is a right way and wrong way to go about gaining entry into this country.
Before anyone suggests I don't know what I'm talking about, I absolutely do. My mother came here months before the fall of Saigon. She gained entry through the appropriate channels if you will. In the mid 80s we filed sponsorship papers to bring my grandmother and 4 aunts over from a communist country....12 years later they arrived. But we did it legally and they arrived here legally and although entitled to welfare benefits--they didn't even bother to apply. And now all of my aunts are U.S. citizens whereas they were once citizens of a communist government. So if you can get out of a communist country, how much harder (or easier) could it be getting out of Mexico with the correct paperwork in hand????
I've spoken to many friends who are immigrants from other countries and arrived here legally and they all have the same thing to say about the illegal protests going on....they're actually quite p-o'd about it because the illegals are assuming just because they are on this soil they are automatically entitled to certain rights, and not only that, the argument is "We got here legally, they can too, so why don't they." |

I realize that not all illegal aliens are from Mexico. However MOST are!
Illegal aliens don't care about what Americans want. They just care about what they want and if they breaking the law, so what! |

Former Mexican President Fox has preached to his "followers" that the Southwestern United States belongs to Mexico and that the United States stole it from the people of Mexico. They believe that if enough of them come here they will run the Americans out of the Southwest and take it back for Mexico. It is an unarmed invasion. The money earned by Mexicans working an America is being sent back to Mexico, making the United States the 3rd largest source of income for Mexico.
That is not to say that there are not decent, hard working people there who just want a better life. But nothing under NAFTA is making their lives in Mexico better. It's making ours worse here. I have no problem with anyone who comes to this country legally, works hard, pays taxes, and assimilates to our culture. |

Decent people do not openly break laws, and then keep breaking laws. Decent people do not march in another countrys streets, demanding rights, Decent people do not use fake or stolen IDs and SS cards, Decent people do not live 20 or 30 to a place made for 5. |

Just to clue some people, like Bruce and "ur personal..." in on a dose of reality,
I am a US native American indian and I have a few things to say to both of you about what you wrote.
First, Bruce, YOU DON'T SPEAK FOR MY PEOPLE. We USA native American indians (none of which are mexican, or ever have been) do NOT support illegal immigration, and do NOT support illegal aliens.
If you won't come here LEGALLY, then GET THE HELL OUT!
Second for ur personal....,
I don't know where you got your education, but you FAIL at American history.
There were over 400 native tribes in the land which is the USA, before your hispanic ancestors got here from EUROPE, and NONE of our tribes were ever "mexican", or "mexicano", or "mexica", or "aztec", or "mayan", or "meztiso", or "latino", or "hispanic", or chicano, or cholo, or vato, or esa, or homie.
GOT THAT?
REMEMBER IT, and forget all the crap you are spewing (most likely that ridiculous MEChA lie)
GET AN EDUCATION before you post any more LIES on any forum. |

Oh dear! You are joking, right? If certain people left the country only because of what others think, there wouldn't be anyone left in the US!
Hint...Hint for the day!: "They are not wanted here". Who says so? You? It's not wise to speak for other people....it is wise to speak for yourself.
Love and Peace for all. |

Through their citizen children, illegal immigrants in Los Angeles County collect $420 million annually in welfare and food stamps, according to a report requested by 5th District County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services told the supervisor that payments to illegal immigrants’ children amount to approximately 24% of the county’s combined CalWORKS and food stamps budget, officials said.
“What we found was kind of astonishing,” said Tony Bell, an Antonovich aide.
Each month, the county doles out $77 million in CalWORKS assistance, $20 million of which goes to the citizen dependent children of illegal immigrants, said Helen Berberian, another Antonovich aide. CalWORKS is the state’s welfare-to-work program.
Along with CalWORKS assistance, the county approves $70 million every month in food stamps, with $15 million going to legal children of illegal immigrants, Berberian said.
The welfare payments go to nearly 100,000 children of 60,000 illegal immigrants, Antonovich’s staff said. His staff estimated that Los Angeles County has almost 12% of the United States’ illegal immigrant population.
The welfare payments are just a portion of the impact from illegal immigrants and their children, Antonovich said.
“Illegal immigration continues to have a devastating impact on Los Angeles County taxpayers,” Antonovich said in a statement. “When the nearly one-half billion dollars spent on health care is added to the costs of public safety and health care, this brings the total cost to nearly $1 billion a year. This does not include the skyrocketing cost of education.”
According to Antonovich’s office, illegal immigrants annually cost the county $360 million in health care and $220 million in incarceration costs.
Antonovich has spoken to Congress several times about ways to mitigate the country’s illegal immigration problem, including the repeal of at least part of the 14th Amendment.
“We would like to see the repeal of the amendment giving citizenship to children born in the U.S.,” Bell said. “The purpose was to ensure that freed slaves were granted citizenship to rectify the evils of slavery, not to provide illegal immigrants with a legal way into our country through childbirth.”
State Sen. George Runner said such a move “is a very worthy issue to be addressed.”
“Just because you are born here, does it automatically give you the right to citizenship?” Runner said. “I think it’s worth of having the discussion.”
Antonovich also has proposed a bonded guest worker program.
“Bonded guest workers would have a bond to cover costs incurred while working in the United States,” Bell said.
Those bonds would cover health care and other major expenses, Bell said, adding that many illegal immigrants come to California because they can get free medical care.
Bell said Antonovich will continue to work with state and federal leaders. Runner said that might be all the supervisor can do, as he is outnumbered by his fellow supervisors.
“With health insurance, I know L.A. County does go ahead and pay beyond what the state would pay,” Runner said. “I know Mike opposes that, but the problem is, he’s like me in that he has a majority on his board that is willing to pay out those benefits.” |

Some Mexicans are what is known as LEGAL immigrants or even UNITED STATES CITIZENS.
You failed to make that distinction.
I don't think that is nitpicking here, this kind of talk frightens me. |

Most white Americans don't like to remember that their nation was founded by slave owners whose sole interest in freedom was to avoid paying English taxes on all those slaves they owned(even the descendants of mexicans, which were indian). Likewise, Americans generally either don't know or don't want to know that they live such fat, comfortable lives because their government insinuates itself into poorer countries all around the world, overthrowing democracies and replacing them with dictatorships propped up by death squads, just so that the poor of those nations can be exploited and the natural resources stolen... and, all of it, just so Americans can have all the cheap, easily disposable crap that they just love to waste their sheer wealth on. The US was built upon slavery and is maintained today by de facto slavery all around the world. Worst of all, despite glaring examples of institutional racism in the US every single day, most white Americans want to pretend that racism no longer exists and will not even begin to deal honestly over the racism that is still there in their government, their society, and in themselves. The correct term is undocumented no human being is illegal. All "white Americans" are undocumented Europeans there paper work is fake, they murdered and cheated for this land. Created a burecracy of red tape to protect there lies and theft. The truth is buried in the "His-tory" books. |

Now are you saying all Hispanics should go back to Mexico? What about the ones that were born here in the United States, should they have to go back because they are mexican? The ones that were born in Mexico should stay in Mexico, the reason why they come to America is to try to better their life. Take a trip to Mexico and you'll see. But just for the record I was born here in the United States. |
