"And that is why no one has had a problem with all other races of immigrants, like the Chinese, Germans, Italians and so on"

Sorry brother but the Dillingham Report published in the early 1900's proves the exact opposite. Maybe it's just a subconscious paranoia that since the land was stolen you are constantly looking over your shoulder for someone to steal it back.

"it’s easier to point at Mexicans for the problems of illegal immigration than to critique the American economic and political structures that require cheap labor. If conservatives believe in any gospel in these days of international aggression and ballooning federal spending, it’s this: when all else fails, blame the Mexicans. "

Because unlike you, most here don’t believe in the points you so rightfully mentioned. Nor have I ever seen them so concisely bought up by anyone else.

Its been groundless disgust

You are right about one thing, it is easy to point at Mexicans especially if you live in SoCal or Arizona.

my last comment was for mikey.

Tey, brother I know how you fell and that is also very true.

Charlie,

Yes you bastids exploited the hell out of them and now its our problem.

Blame CA, people!

Mikey;

This is the first time a fricking ginny has bought tears to my eyes.

You are so right and how dare we dilute your brilliant confession. America’s unique identity and strength comes from all those immigrants that were willing to adopt this country as their own and put it above all else. That’s what America is!!!

Hats of to your sir.

Thank you for the respect and my respect goes back to you.

That spirit is what I feel is missing from todays immigrants and thats what burns me a little.

We don't "need" illegals.

And my goal isn't to make the illegals legal, but rather to kick them the hell out of here. They should be put to the bottom of any list when we decide who comes here legally.

We can not, or at least should not, reward their illegal activity by granting them legal status.

And yes, we should punish those who knowingly hire them, and until we do they will always take the risk by coming here. But as it stands, what is their risk?

I live in the northeast, so my experiences with the latino community is less than those that live in AZ or CA. But my experiences in life and in business with Mexicans and Latinos has been nothing but positive. As such, my gripe is NOT with Latinos, but only with illegals.

But the illegal population is predominantly Latino, and in addition to that, they are the most vocal in their claim of being treated unjustly. That, my friends, is a crock of ****e.

They Do need to "go home", get back in line, and come here when we say it's OK to do so.

If we truly "need" their cheap labor, our immigration laws will be changed to allow for more of them to enter the country legally.

I think we should at least try a minefield before we say it doesn't work.

Pretend it's a liberal social experiment.

If it doesn't work we can say it's under funded and the mean spirited Republicans are try to starve kids and old people by not throwing more money at it.

There has GOT to be a story behind your name.
