Is it the U.S. Government you think is at fault or the Mexican Government?
Illegals pour in by the hundreds of thousands bringing their crude ways, because they refuse to change their own country. It would be nice if they took responsibility for their own actions, but sadly from all my years it seems like they refuse to learn. They bring this hatred upon themselves.
LOL. Crude ways really? Compared to what? What change to we cause in the US really? TPTB pick the President every single time. What do they refuse to learn? I am in the Construction industry and have not found a harder worker, more dedicated to family and peace than Mexican immigrants. They are not nearly as lazy as the Americans we see working for us.

This illegal immigrant business has caused nothing but trouble. I'm truly sorry for what these obnoxious and troublesome illegals have done.
I myself am of Mexican descent, but was born in the US. I am NOT related to any illegals, just in case you were wondering. In fact, I HATE it when they try to group the "hispanic community" together when I don't support them one bit!
People becoming racist over this whole ordeal is what I feared would happen. I just want to assure you that there are ones like me who also want these illegals to leave. I don't have any of that "Mexican pride" rubbish because I am an American. Sadly, I can't speak for the majority of the legal immigrants since it seems they too support the illlegals (Why do they even care, since they're already legal?!), but I know I am speaking for myself here. I've wanted to tell someone how I felt since a long time ago.
Anyway, I apologize once again for how these "people" have been acting. I would ask that you reconsider your decision Wolf321, but how can I do that when I know you'll be disappointed? I guess, all I ask is for you to know that I'm with you and those of us who have had it with these illegals.

Sadly, I am on the recieving end of this bull. I am not even Mexican, yet because I am mixed race and am naturally brown, I get put into the category of Mexican. Freaking sickens me how white people here in America treat me just because I look Mexican to them.
Man, if only one time you could feel the discrimination from this side. It's not every fun to get grouped into a category (especially since I am not even in the category), and get treated with disrespect because of the color of my skin.

I am the same way. I do have hispanic heritage and also white and cherokee as well.I get hurt pretty badly especially in my field of work. Most of the CGI industry is controlled by whites. I have a hard time getting into the field.

The real Illegals in America are white people.
They came and killed over 400 million Natives and Latinos over 400 years, enslave and steal there land and white wash their history, now white people are crying that Mexicans are coming back into the land you that was theirs to begin with.
Everyone knows the white man is the biggest hypocrite on planet Earth and they are very proud of what they have done.
Good thing the white mans ruler-ship over the world is almost done, theres going to be a lot of pay back on that 500 year tab of destruction.
The best thing white people can do now is wake up to the fact that there Edomites.
The white man is the terrorist of the world.

Oh. come on. I can't help myself but to reply to both of you. The only way you can be hurt is if you don't like who you are. The whities don't have the edge on the world population scene. And who cares what they think of you, it only matter how you perceive yourself. The gripe by the OP is that illegal Mexicans are streaming over the border and eating us out of house and home. How about you guys speaking out against this and become part of the solution. BTW, I am white/Irish and I will tell you that I get hurt when I see anyone being put down for who they are, what size they may be, or what color they happen to be. And I don't tolerate it either. And we Irish have several hundred years experience of discrimination by other whites (English) and the terror they did to us, not to mention even here in the US for quite some time. So it all gets around and we all get a taste of it.
But the question is, do you know who you are and can you stand proud of it and tall. Or do you have white envy. Never be afraid to say your piece to those who look at you with a bad eye. only then will you go toe to toe with all of them and still be standing when the dust clears. Just don't be the victim. When people do that I get nauseous.

I moved to the US when i was about 4 years old from a Communist country. When me and my family arrived, we flew an American flag at home. We assimilated, learned the language, paid our taxes, and were proud that we were American citizens. It was the US that gave us a chance at life. We didn't come here expecting a handout or anything of that sort. We just worked hard and appreciated every new opportunity we had here.
I have no problem with being proud of your culture or heritage, but even as an immigrant i can tell you that i absolutely hate seeing parades and marches against US policies with Mexican flags or whatever else flying. I can't stand that most of their money is sent across our borders. I can't stand when they won't speak a word of English. I can't stand seeing bilingual billboards in my neighborhood. These people have absolutely no loyalty to the US. They are here strictly to take advantage of a situation and nothing more. If you want to come here and be a citizen, by all means do it legally. Me and my family are proof that there are immigrants that don't want to change anything here, they just want to be a part of it.
Why is it regular white folks are so afraid to be proud of the US or white American culture? Everyone else is encouraged to be proud except you, if you do it then you guys are racists. Beyond stupid. You are letting this country go to hell all in the name of political correctness. It is not racist to be upset that your neighborhoods, stores, and culture are being hijacked.
