Like most of the respondants, I don't dislike Mexicans per se. What I do have a problem with is people, of any race, coming here illegally. They are breaking the law, whether it's a just law or not, and the US government needs to either 1) start enforcing that law, or 2) change the law.
Here's part of the problem with illegal immigrants, most of whom are Mexican. Yes, they take the minimum wage jobs that most Americans don't want. Yes, they are mostly good people just coming here to find jobs that aren't available because of a poor economy in their homelands. But they need to come here legally (i.e. get a work visa, or student visa, or just become US citizens). They need to not demand rights that they're not entitled to, like welfare, health care or driver's licenses, all things that were meant for AMERICAN CITIZENS. And most importantly, they shouldn't be getting upset if they and their friends and families get deported, because the legal reality is that they're here illegally and the consequence for breaking immigration law is deportation. In fact, they should be expecting that they will eventually be caught and prepare for that possibility. If they keep their noses clean and don't bring any attention to themselves, then maybe they might stay awhile. But with all these protests, marches and the like, they are bringing more attention to themselves, and are more likely to be caught and deported. |

My husband is a Mexican and even he disapproves of the illegals coming over from Mexico. He came here legally in the 80's. Not everyone hates Mexicans. |

People are starting to dislike the fact they are coming over here and given a free pass on crimes committed.
First crime is to illegally break into our country.
Second crime usually is Identity theft. (They need a Social Security number to work. They steal one so they can work)
Third Crime is they abuse our health care system. Stealing from the hard working people. |

I don't hate anyone. I despise illegal immigrants who come into my country illegally, demand rights they aren't entitled to, fly my country's flag disrespectfully, call the citizens of my country filthy names, abuse the assistance the citizens of this country funded through our tax dollars and think they are above our laws. It just happens that Hispanics are 99.9% of the ones who have and are doing those things. You reap what you sow!
Why do Mexicans 'hate' Americans? |

I think some of the problem is that the legal immigrants are not learning English either and it confuses people. Right now all the focus is on Mexico because of immigration laws, plus they are putting themselves all over the news and that does not help them either. I know alot of Mexicans they are not all bad. But personally I would like them to come here legally, and learn English. I would like any immigrant to come here legally and learn English. |

I live on the border and Mexicans hate Mexicans! What I mean is the Mexicans that have come here legally are proud to be Mexicans. But they are also proud to have become Americans and are mad and embarrassed about the illegals that give Mexicans a bad name.
As for non-Mexicans, it could be ignorance that's exacerbated by the media putting their sensationalizing spin on things. |

i will say this for the thousandth time, the border has been unchecked for years allowing people to bring drugs across and nothing was done about it, now all of a sudden its a big deal for illegal immigration, its just a diversion to keep us from focusing on the corruptness of the government, but to answer your question i believe it is just showing how racist this country really is |

I am a white person and one of the nicest persons I knew was Mexican. I think you may be speaking for some but not all Americans. Hate is one of those things that is taught. We are not born with hatred we are taught it from our parents and peers. We can learn hatred from the actions of another culture if we are debased. One more thing, Clinton done away with welfare, it is now workfare. How does everyone think they get welfare? |

I still think that most people believe that the illegal Mexicans are taking all of the jobs. Not just the little $5 an our jobs. There are GOVERNMENT places that hire illegal Mexicans to do work just to save money & then they turn around & say "we need to get rid of the illeagals". I know of more illegal mexicans who get paid $15 or more an hour compared to white/black people who get paid the same! It oesn't make sense! They pay NO TAXES & get paid more per hour than the US born citizen who pays taxes! I live in FL, & most of these $500,000 or more homes are owned by young (under 25 years old) illegal people! I'm MAD... |

Most people that I know of are simply against the illegal immigrants, not the legal ones. |

If the illegals would have kept their mouth shut and not march demanding rights they are not entitled to and waving their Mexican flag we wouldn't be having the debate, why just Mexicans, just as I said, they started it with their Mexican flags disrespecting our laws and our country and telling us, that they own this Continent. and we stoled their land, they stoled from the Indians, and those stupid Mexican activists that preach that it is their land. I don't see any other immigrants doing those kind of things, just Mexicans. It is not Mexico that is feeding them and giving them homes and free health care, and other services, and yet they fly their stupid Mexican flag, and I am sick of them and their flag, they can take it back home with them. Deport all illegals. |

If they're not illegal, then they're not Mexicans, they're Americans!!! |

Maybe it is because like the lady whose husband is in concrete and hires Mexicans for less money we don't like the way it lowers the wage pool for everyone. Pretty soon Americans won't be able to afford to work in America. I wonder if this lady's husband charges less money to his customer?or is he making a bundle off those Mexicans? |

Most people don't hate Mexicans they hate what they are doing like coming here Illegally and taking away public services away from Americans. Those are the Illegal ones. But the ones in Mexico or the ones that are here Legally they are just fine I have no problem with them. |

i don't hate them i love them but i think every ones problem is that most of them can't speak fluent English and the fact that that they get all the help and some of them are here illegally those are really the only problem i don't understand it the government is more worried about Mexicans they are terrorists |

I used to live in LA and there are a lot of Mexicans there. East LA is an area that is just like Mexico. No one speaks English. All of the businesses they are owned by Mexicans. They feel that this is really their country and they want it back and they are hostel to Americans. They don't want to be Americans, they want the parts of the US that used to belong to Mexico to be Mexico again. It's like they are slowly invading us to take back their land. If this is not corrected soon I fear it could lead to a civil war in the future. |

I don't hate Mexicans, or any other race.
I do think that the people who do hate Mexicans are either racist, or they hate the illegal Mexicans. |

Duh, it's ILLEGLES, not Mexicans that we hate. I'd easily pummel a Canadian illegle if I saw one. |

I think there hostility against all immigrant groups, some just have more stereotypes working against them than others. I've also found though, that most of those who demonstrate hate for a specific group, don't actually know why they do it and really don't have any deep seeded hate towards them. It tends to more of a social construct. Of course there are alwasy those who are genuinely racist and they can give you a laundry list of reasons, although most of them are ridiculous. |

You are not getting it.........Americans dont hate LEGAL MEXICANS...........They just hate ILLEGAL MEXICANS............Now if you will go look up the difference between the word LEGAL and ILLEGAL.........and if you understand what it means then you will know whats really going on. I dont at ALL like illegal Mexicans...........BUT I LOVE LEGAL Mexicans......Actually I love them so much that I actually moved to mexico and now live in Mexico.

Because Americans are mean. I am an American and even I can see this. Mean. In any topic on Yahoo Answers you can find it. Mean evil hearted spoiled babies. It makes me embarrassed, and angry.
I can't wait to see Tom and Bill out there in the fields picking fruit for 50 cents an hour. Yeah we didn't have any problem hiring them to save money right. HYPOCRITES |

I don't hate the Mexicans they are hard working and do the jobs Americans don't want. Hating the Mexicans is an idea put into our head to forget the Bush administration lied to us about Iran and for us to ignore our soldiers are being killed, maimed and in constant danger over there. |

That's a very good question. I thought it was just illegals as well, but I think most people now are judging them all to be illegals, which is not true. |
