It's much easier to get into the US illegally for Mexicans. They breed like rabits and have really drained our economy, schools, jobs, and medical care. For every 1 there are 25 more relatives hiding in the bushes. They have to be stopped.....)( |

The focus on illegal Asians and Europeans already happened in our history. The Irish were hated on back in the day. The Chinese were hated on back in the day while they were building railroads. Both groups had a grip of laws passed to prevent them from doing all sorts of things. There were anti-immigration laws passed and anti-miscegenation laws passed, which means that it was illegal for the Chinese to marry outside of their race. Stupid seeing as that there were also laws preventing Chinese women to come in the country.
Africans... well the racist crackers that are against them being here have no right, because they were stolen from their homeland and brought here. Do some more studying and learn about history and you'll see that every group, not just Mexicans have had a hard time in this country. Well, almost every group.
At least these days, the law doesn't protect people from going around and killing and beating the crap out of these people. Yeah, you'd be surprised how crazy things got just a hundred or two hundred years ago. |

First of all African stood up for them self. Asians have money so they don't care. Mexicans let red-necks step on them. If all the field pickers were to stand up, speak up and stop working, Ignorant people would stop focusing on them, because no white boy is bending over to pick fruit. Why do they focus on Mexicans because we let them. Sad but true honey. |

I am with you on this one I would love to know why it is that if immigration is the big issue right now why it is the Mexican race right now is the only one with the focus, and oh by the way most of you all are wrong because I have lived in Alaska and let me tell you most of the states up that way are swarming with people from Asian countries that are there illegally and cannot speak English either, the reason it is a big issue right now with the Mexican people is because the president has chosen to make it that way. If we want to address illegal immigration we need to do it across the board not just single out one group of people. Contrary to what most people think the Mexican people are not to blame for the economy or for the welfare system or all the other things they are just the convent excuse for now, but if we want to fix the immigration problem we need to do it across the country not just in 4 states. |

Mexicans are mainly the focus of illegal immigration because we share a border with them. |

it's the hotbutton topic right now...in a few weeks, there will be something shiny and we'll all turn our attention to that... |

Politically they're the same. Geographically, obviously people who just run across the border are more of a concern. It's harder to get into the country by flying in. |

i puess ppl do that because
1. They work the hardest so they get the jobs
2. There are more of them
3. They have different apperances and culture than other people.
Maybe its racisim? |

Beacuse their are a lot more of Mexicans than any of the other. And besides, its a lot harder to be any of the other. If your a illegal mexican, you just had to jump a fence. But if your one of the other, you had to swim the entire Atlantic Ocean! |

Probably because the Europeans come legally, overstay their visas, but still pay their taxes and cause no harm, while Africans mostly come on a political refugee status and quicky become citizens, unlike Europeans.
With Mexicans it's entirely different issue:they come illegally, pay no taxes and have too many babies for the taxpayer.
Europeans have no babies at all:we are intelligent, plus we pay taxes, so even if we have one or two, they are not fed by you. |

...not that we should and not that we do... the term i ALWAYS hear is "ILLEGAL ALLIEANS"... must be in your mind... i wonder why. but if that were the case it would be because the problem [ and it is a problem] comes mostly from mexicans sneaking across the border... but you already know that so why dont you just cut the b s?!?!? ALL that said, i spend a lot of time w/ very VERY poor people, i certainly can understand why ALL poor people want to get in here anyway they can, make a few dollars improve their life style, send some money home , help out thier families ... my problem comes from the fact that we have existing laws, and law informent units from immigration / border patrol, local & federal police internal reveniew and more that ALL get paid good wages bennifits and retirement pakages ALL paid for buy the tax payer .. they are "working welfare" .. and they have not done their job!! how DID this problem get so out of hand?!?!? now they want congrees to "bail them out "by making new laws... how dare they... if they can't do their job , fire them all. take away all their bennifits and hire illegals alliens to do the job!!! |

Because there are millions more of them.
Because they are making demands.
Because they refuse to except the American culture.
Because they have taken over my town. |

Where have you been hiding, sweetie? WE focus on any and everyone that's illegal now a days hon., so don't take it personal, relax, we're trying to make America a more safe place to live in or to visit. It's ok. |

Three-quarters of the estimated 12 million illegal migrants in the US come from Mexico and Central America. Mexicans make up 56 percent of the unauthorized US migrant population, according to the Pew Hispanic Center.
And it is the illegal Mexicans that bought attention to themselves during the May 1st, the day without immigrants, parade raising the Mexican flag, and disrespecting the American flag. Other illegal immigrants from Asia, Europe, and Africa didn't raise their countries' flags and demand rights. |

Because they are not coming to be Americans, they are coming to colonize, and they are coming in by the thousands everyday, we don't no if they are criminals or have diseases because they are not being screened, our prisons are filling up with illegal aliens, criminals come right over with the ones that want to work. Its not right that we should be over run with Mexicans. Vicente Fox is pushing his poor and uneducated on the U.S. because he doesn't want them in Mexico they have no assets, he encourages them to come so he doesn't have to deal with fixing his own country, He wants his party to win the Mexican election this year. Fox and Bush have a deal his people get to stay, and corporations get cheap labor, and his party win. |

The main reason is because there are many many times more Mexicans than all the rest put together.
If you had a real big fire near one side of your house and a few sparks on the other side, which would you be more concerned about ? |

I don't. Mexicans are taking this personally. No one else. To me it is about ALL illegal aliens, regarldess of race, skin color, relegious beliefs, or where they are from. |
|

Because they are not swarming across our borders at the rate of 500,000 per year.
You're one of them chicanas who don't care about America as much as Mexico, but won't live live there, aren't you? |

Duhhhhhhhh! because they are the majority of the problem!! Get educated then ask your question! |

There you go generalizing. I'm included in the you all. I want the people who are hireing them thrown in jail. As for the illegals they get a flight home and the bill is sent to their government.
See--I don't pick on mexican illegals more then the rest. And OBTW I don't have a problem with LEGAL immigrants coming here and then going home or coming here and staying to become citizens of the US. |

Because they are the majority and it's easier to just reference them instead of listing all the illegals living here from every country on the planet. |

Everyone has seemed to forget that illegals come through Canada as well. Lets face it, Mexico is a third world country so naturally because of their closeness to our borders, there are more of them here. Anybody with half a brain can figure out that the current administration is praying on the passions of the masses as a diversion to all of their serious problems they are now having. Mexico has turned into the focal point for all of this and because of this it allows racism to flourish. One more note: it is much easier to cross the Canadaian border illegally. Did everyone know that the Canadian border patrol are not even allowed to carry arms? |

Because it is the ILLEGAL mexicans that are POURING into our country by the THOUSANDS every day!!! It is the mexicans that has 11-30 MILLION illegals here ALREADY,and that are marching in our streets DEMANDING that they be given "rights",while carrying a MEXICAN flag on OUR soil!! If it were any OTHER country doing this,we would feel the SAME way about them!!! |

Probably because they are the biggest groups of illegals and the biggest problem |
