Mexican is NOT a race.
We are angry at the illegal alien criminals for breaking our laws. |

Hun, It has nothing to do with the color of your skin. My best friend is Mexican so stop waving the race card.
I have major issues with people who come here illegally and drop anchor babes. We are having a huge problem with illegal aliens coming from Mexico. They are the biggest offenders. Do you know the school down the street from my house is 95 % Hispanic. The majority of the students do not speak english. My children who are American citizens and speak english do not go to this school because of this. I HAVE to pay taxes to send these children to school and I have to pay to send my children to a private school.
So tell me.................. what are American to citizens do? Wither they are brown, black, yellow or white when their neighborhood starts looking like little TJ? These people are coming here and not assemulationg, they are not learning english, they are trying to turn the US into little Mexico, they are abusing our system..................................... |

Im not racist and why does it have to be "you guys". I never said anything. I dont care if you live here. I just dont EVER want to see an american flag burning. Why come to a country when all your going to do is disrespect it. I dont go around burning mexican flags. I dont go around wearing Scottish pride shirts. Its because when you come to america you are an american. Not a mexican. and another thing, dont force your culture on me. your a minority. why does a larger population have to change because a smaller one wont. Learn english als(not you obviously) and this isnt just for mexicans this is for everyone. |

Americans are mad about illegal aliens. It has nothing to do with "race". It has to do with people breaking our laws. Most of them just happen to be mexicans.
If you were born and raised in the USA why do you not refer to yourself as an American? It appears that you are the racist one. |

youre right if china was next to the US and had the same economic/social situation, they would be treated the same way..... |

Uhm... What exactly did I do to you? And, BTW, by your 'asking' this, you are basically saying everyone but Mexicans are racist, so, thereby, you are a racist, yourself. |

not mad at any race, but I am sick of being accused of that.
WE ARE MAD AT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RACE. 50% OF MEXICAN AMERICANS ARE ALSO SICK OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO DO SOMETHING TO PROTECT THE USA. DO YOU THINK THEY ARE RACISTS TOO? |

The fact is the biggest percentage of illegals are Mexicans. When peoples backs are against the wall they attack the most visible target(Mexicans). If they come here legally there is no problem with them. Not everyone attacks Mexicans only. It is a problem with many races and it should not be about their race. It is a very emotional subject for many and some resort to name calling and insults. It only serves to make them look small and ignorant. |

Illegal aliens are not a racial issue. They are a legal one! It has nothing to do with the color of skin or the country of origin, it's a legal issue. The illegals have done such crappy things honest legal citizens of hispanic descent will be brought under scrutiny due to their actions. Not fair but be angry with them, they caused the issue by sneaking into our country and demanding things they haven't earned from our society. |

I BELIEVE IF YOU LIVE BY THE LAW OF THE LAND YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION? There are all races in America that are legal citizens,trying to make a POSITIVE DIFFERENCE,You donot know the color of my skin,however you do know that racism IS getting old to any argument you might have? Realize breaking the law is not fair to those that abide by it.AMERICANS WILL FIGHT FOR WHAT IS RIGHT,SO IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT CONCENTRATION CAMPS,MAYBE YOU SHOULD BECOME LEGAL?(NOT YOU (NESSICARILLY) BUT MEXICANS,AND CONTRIBUTE INSTEAED OF TAKING WHATEVER FREE RIDE OUR GOVERNMENT OFFERS?.Americans need mexico to fight with us instead of against us,There is no way mexico will ever take over,islums and chineese are so ahead of that idea,I AS WELL AS OTHER Americans realize hispanics offer alot to this country,however illegals break the law,why should we allow people to break the law?We have to protect our borders,it is not that Americans do not want to help Mexico,we send millions of dollars to help,however,we must protect our borders,it is a well known fact that terrorist cross the mexico boarder,and the mexican drug cartel is stronger than ever,we,Americans demand the law that our country promised,,the sovierinity that we fought for.Why do mexicans ask for less than that when it is that very reason they come here? |

Razor Jim hit the nail square on the head. Thanks Razor Jim.
By the way you and others use race like sprinkling sugar on oatmeal. Frankly, we are all of the same race "The Human Race"
so I don't wanna hear any more about "my race."
As for illegals, ALL illegals you do not belong here. Go back to your country of origin and come over and do the RIGHT thing like my ancestors did in the early 1900's.
Or better yet, let them enact change in their our countries. It's not that hard. Most countries have did so and prospered or they have ceased to exist.
Since you state you are proud to be a American I suggest you step up and condemn what ALL of the illegals are doing to the very fabric of our country.
Cause the way it's going now, We The People are going to have to take things in our hands. This country cannot absorb illegals any more. |

I'm not mad at Mexicans. I'm made at criminal illegal aliens regardless of their country of origin.
I have many latino friends. They all happen to have been born here, or happen to be here legally. I love them dearly.
Why is being stauncly against illegal immigration considered racist?
One doesn't have anything to do with the other. |

I think you are brainwashed to be making a direct correlation between illegal immigration and people not liking you because of your skin color or because you are Mexican. If anything, you have a racist mentality. Your comments are farfetched and if you think people have a problem with your entire race, you are certainly not the candidate to represent your people. If you were their representative, one might think that your people are not very intelligent and I am being generous. Perhaps people may even think you are in some way challenged. Many people will probably assess your comments as being similar comments made by scapegoats who really offer no true, informed, educated assessment of the illegal immigration problem that exists today. Really though, it's pretty clear who the real racist is, you said enough to let us all know. So, next time you wonder why somebody doesn't like your race, maybe it's because they've been exposed to comments by somebody that has a similar mentality as you. It's pretty hard to believe you were born and raised here. Maybe you should surround yourself with different people because it sounds like they've been feeding your head with garbage. By the way, my best friend is Mexican, born and raised in the US just like you. Just like any other educated American, he understands and is bothered by the illegal immigration problem that is taking place in this country, mostly by Mexicans. He is not a traitor to his own race. He is embarrassed by his race right now and has been for quite some time. He has seen first hand generation after generation of Mexicans living in America who still can't speak decent English and haven't even bothered to take advantage of getting an education. He doesn't think every Mexican is like this but he says he knows plenty who are. He believes that Mexican Americans support illegal immigrants because they see it as an opportunity to advance their race regardless if it's at America's expense. He believes they would be content with making America as Mexican as possible.....That it is difficult for him to see any real attempt by them to truly assimilate. So, next time you start feeling sorry for yourself, here's a little truth you can keep in mind that will remind you of why some people dislike (not to be confused with being racist) illegal immigration and illegal immigrant supporters...there are more people killed in the US annually at the hands of illegal immigrants which are mostly comprised of Mexicans, than have died during the attack of 9/11. This list is endless why people might have a problem with Mexicans. If you truly want to see racism, paint yourself white and go to Mexico. By the way, tell your people to quit saying they are "hard workers". What, look around, do you think Mexicans are the only people that are working hard! How pitiful and what an insult to everyone who isn't Mexican.....As if everyone is lazier than Mexicans!....And honestly, come on now, thousands walking down the street waving the Mexican flag, burning the American flag, turning the American flag upside down and holding signs that say "We are America"....talk about having a wack mentatlity. And then there was the "Day Without A Immigrant"....it should have been called the "Day of Extorting America" because that's exactly what every immigrant that didn't go to work that day did. Let's see how the illegal immigrants and their supporters would feel about "A Day Without Americans Paying Taxes That Go Towards Supporting Illegal Immigrants". |

Hey DJLOU714,
The only reason you and pro illegal alien supporters drop the race card is because you have no argument. These people broke the law and are straining our school systems, health care facilities, and welfare programs. Do you enjoy seeing your hard earned money going to these criminals? |

AveGirl

another who thinks mexican is a race. Please...quit trying to use the race card for a non race. Your race is hispanic. Your country of origin is mexico.
we point the finger at hispanics because the majority of illegals are hispanic. can you not admit that fact without crying or whining? You can't claim a race card on a country of heritage. |

Why do you think that the people who are against illegal immigration are against all Mexicans? Razor handed you the stats on what illegal immigration does to this country. Does this bother you because you are an anchor baby? I mean, all of those are citizens, legally. Poor kids born only so that the parents could play the "parent card" to try to stay here. What a reason to have kids. That and getting more welfare. Which is done by many races.
What "us" do you think people want detained? Are you legal or not? I don't think concentration camps are the answer, but one hell of a huge wall, and toss the illegals back over it. But I think if you harbor illegals, then you are harboring criminals, each one broke a law just to get here illegally, then you should be brought up on charges. So, no, I don't think, for all I patrol the immigration boards, I have seen anyone suggest concentration camps for legal Mexicans. Not a thing to do with skin color. We just want the illegals out, and let in people who follow the laws to get here.
We cannot bring every poor person in the world to live in America. By being a country that shares a border with the US, poor Mexicans, and not poor Mexicans, can get here at will. Does anyone feel sorry for the dying children of places in Africa? The ones you see with distended bellies from starvation, too weak to get the flies off of their eyes? I feel for them very much, but we can't bring them all over here. So, why should America let in all the people who want to come, regardless of who they are, what they might have done, just because we happen to share a border? Or that people from other SA countries, like El Salvador, just because they can logistically get here easier than an Ethopian? Should we just let everyone come up? And would that not be the easiest route for terrorists if we did? Get from Iraq and then use the "Open Door From Mexico" lanes to drive right into this country and car bomb us.
Border control has nothing to do with legal residents or their skin color. Border control is not a race issue, it is a safety issue, so stop throwing in the racist card. You wouldn't have to consider it a race problem if people of your race weren't breaking our laws daily to get here illegally. |

just what we need another clown trying to play the race card. Do yourself a favor and lose the victimization propaganda.
It's just another in a long list of crud being spewed to justify a tidal wave of illegal immigrants.
Try reading what people actually have to say instead of anally dismissing them as racists. You might actually learn something. |

I am Xicano, I cannot call myself American because of government labeling and because of the thinking just like the people who responded above. They make an effort to keep another race down no matter what, they have done it to the Chinese, Irish, Germans, Italians, Indians, Blacks, and now, Mexicans. The only way they can make their existence worthwhile, is to live off of hate, fear, and ignorance.
The only reason why Mexicans are getting a bad rap is because we are becoming more prominent in society. This country is exactly where we are supposed to be. And just because these people have tried hard to push us back into a small area, causing a gross spill over, they freak out. Just because one little white dude saw a Mexican move next door to him, all the sudden there is an immigration problem. |

When your people protest bacause the U.S. won't give in to all the illegal immigrants, and in the process you hang the American flag upside down, burn it, hang ugly Mexican flags in its place, are we supposed to take Mexicans in with warmth. Hell no. And you legal mexican citizens think that we're racist for not wanting 12 million more of you here illegaly. If I went to mexico city and burned mexican flags, would I be greeted with "hello mr white American" I doubt it. So you tell your stupid protesting Mexicans to get over it. If they wanna deface our flag while trying to become a citizen of our country, well, we're not gonna be forgiving to that kind of behavior. |

omg!! yet another mexican who wants to accuse the americans of being racist. understand this, while i can only speak for myself (while you are lumping everyone together, a little racist, a little bigoted, aren't you?) i don't know of anyone who is looking at race. to my knowlege, the issue is the status of the person, whether or not they are in this country legally. you know what i find interesting, is that you use the chinese as the extreme example in your rant, instead of the colombians, ecuadoreans, salvadoreans, cubans, really, mexicans aren't the only illegals who come in through our southern borders.
well, to simplify this, i've included a link to a cogent argument. after you've read that, and recognized that your own country's attitude is rascist, and that you are expecting us to accomodate you, to our own detriment, then, perhaps, if you are honest, you can understand why we are 'so angry' |
