yankee hatred is a pretty rife down there in mexico, im pretty sure mexicans know a thing or too about mexican-american relations.

So basically you hate Mexicans because Mexico hate yanks.

Last time I checked, Mexico had a population of about 99.9% Mexicans. I expect there to be hate towards other races.

However, the US is one big melting pot of different races and different colors.
I expect their to more respect based on the fact that no matter whether we are white, brown, black- we are all Americans.

Guess you don't see it that way.

"You would be surprise to know that most Mexicans Americans don't know that La Raza , Aztlan, or for that matter LULAC even exist, much less what they do."

Can you back that up with a scource? A poll? Anything?? That is a pretty broad statement there. You have a finger on the pulse of the ENTIRE Mexican American Population? Hmmmmmmmm.

So you are saying Mexicans have a right to hate others but we in America are held to different standards????

I think your a little biased or slanted in your view. I can tell that from just reading your posts.

If I moved to Germany and was wanting to be a citizen or live out my life there illegally and use up their resources and handouts my loyalty might be with them.

I mean, I dusted the good ol USA dust off my feet. I'm living off German goodwill. But hey thats just me. If I take advantage of a country I might want to show it a little loyalty.

Aren't they always saying how corrupt it is in Mexico? How they live in bad conditions? Why show loyalty to a country that doesn't care about you?? I'm scratching my head about that one.....

While you may not of said they have a right you are saying it is expected and excusable for them to have HATRED. Same difference....

Nearly 70 percent of Mexicans surveyed said that Mexican-Americans – including those born in the United States – owe their primary loyalty to Mexico, not the U.S., according to a Zogby poll commissioned by the Center for Immigration Studies.

The in-person poll, taken during August and September, sampled 1,004 Mexicans across the country on subjects related to illegal immigration and amnesty in the United States.

When asked “Should the primary loyalty of Mexican-Americans be to Mexico or to the U.S.?” 68.8 percent of respondents in Mexico said that it should be to Mexico, while only 19.7 percent said it should be to the United States. Another 11.5 percent of respondents said they were not sure.

Camarota also told CNSNews.com that just over one-third of respondents (36 percent) said that they would come to the U.S., if they could. Of that group, 68 percent said they think that Mexican-Americans owe loyalty to Mexico over the United States.
