It seems blacks will remain in the Getto while Mexicans will jump over them and join the rest of us in normal society. Whats the problem?

have you ever heard the phrase 'el barrio'  Or in Whitenese it's called a 'trailer park' or 'hillbilly land' Also, I'm sure the blacks in the 'G'hetto can at least spell it.

Not until black people are given their 40 acres and a mule. Seriously. We do way too much for foreigners in our country but won't take care of our own people. It's sickening..and I don't have any problem with their race, ethnicity. Just wanted to clarify that.

You're very perceptive.  \n\nIt's still rampant. Especially in rural, southern areas.  But, you can find it in the big cities, too, where large groups of one race live together and don't accept it when other races come in (such as So. Central LA where the Blacks hate the Mexicans, etc).\n\nIgnorance plays a big part and it's sad..

They shouldn't.This country is not overcrowded.Even if the whole country of Mexico came over they would still be a minority.This country needs them.Ppl are scared because this country and countries all over the world are changing.There is nothing anyone can do about it.Sorry guys.

People make that assumption because they are the largest group of incoming illegal immigrants.  They aren't the only people who come to this country and stay without legal citizenship, but Mexicans do come and stay illegally in larger numbers than immigrants from any other single country.

Economic disparity. In any society, where there is a large portion of poor people, the people in those "economic casts" are more likely to commit crimes of opportunity (drug dealing, petty theft, robber, auto theft, etc). Unfortunately, many African Americans fall in these poor economic casts. Its not a race issue, and if you were able to find reliable data, I'm sure you'd find that all people in an economic cast regardless of race, are prone to commit the same behaviors, whether that is crime, polygamy, stock trading, etc.

This is very true, but the government is more focused on mexicans because A. They are a poorer country B. Mexicans have snuck illgal drugs over the border and C. The Natalee Holloway case hasn't helped many immagrents around the country. Basiclly, everyone is just afraid of new people and what they may bring to the U.S. I am not mexican, but i do believe that every human was made equally and everyone deserves a fighting chance. I agree that not all mexicans are bad, just the very few percentage that don't know how to deal with some problems. I mean, if you think about it, if you were a mexican dealing with an oppresive government (no offense) and poverty wouldn't you want a safe haven? I know i would try anything to get to the U.S. We in the U.S. have to understand what they are going through and put ourselves in their shoes. I totally agree on the fact that mexicans aren't the only immagrants. I just think the government is afraid of be overthrown or having another terroist attack. Though my ideas may not represent the american people, i still agree that this illegal crud needs to stop soon.

I read an article on that very subject this morning on yahoo. When illegals take a job, they are taking something from ALL Americans, but the ones that are most affected are black Americans. The story said. You are right. More important than the color of their skin is the fact that they are Americans.

Considering that a lot of people are retiring on a social security check that won't support them in the US, my guess is that a lot of people will be asking that question. The Mexicans can move up here and all the old folks can bring the US down there.

My apologies to the asker of this question.  I misunderstood your intentions and was wrong to say "You have a serious problem".  After re reading your question I see my error.  Sorry\n\nNo body is blaming EVERYTHING on immigrants, legal or illegal.  There are those who come here and take advantage of our system.  To top it off, they work under the table and make a profit without taxation and without putting anything back into the system they are bleeding dry.  This is not the fault of MEXICAN's it is the fault of every American who allows this kind of thing to happen.  Black people use the system, white people use the system, everybody uses the system.  And when someone else gets something they themselves didn't then they cry foul.\n\nPeople need to grow up.  If you don't like trash in your yard, YOU clean it up.  If someone is using the system unfairly report it.  If you are using the system unfairly then you should go to jail.\n\nNo, it's not the fault of someone of ethnicity, it's everyone who complains but does nothing about it.

Because of a flood of people from Mexico who are here Illegally. That is who is coming in masses-meaning not invited. They are mostly of the Mexican nationality. The Race card is being played in this problem by some. They show a different flag and demand rights that are not theirs yet. And do not want to blend but change a language. \n\nGreeks-Italians-Irish-Polish-Swedish and many more at one time came in groups (most came expected-a few jumped the boat) but they adopted our culture our laws our language-they blended. Now some(in this case from Mexico) do not want to blend-they want their own Language-they want to follow what they believe is law and keep their culture. Now it becomes a Race Issue. None of the others did this-they wanted to belong in a orderly way they wanted to unite. They had struggles but they knew how do behave in a respectful way. That is why it is a Race issue

Americans are upset because Mexicans sneak across the border and enter the country illegally.  They use millions of dollars in our social programs, food stamps, health care and fill our schools with kids who can't speak English.  There culture is very different from average Americans.  They live in sub-standard housing here and ship the money they earn illegally back to Mexico.  Because of them crime has risen up to 30% in some of our cities.  The problem is they are here illegally.  They need to come in through legal channels or stay in Mexico.

Mexico wants to get rid of their poor. They personally don't care where they go just as long as they leave and send money back. These are very uneducated people and a major a drain on the Mexican society as they are on ours. Americans are very misinformed if they think our government, corporate America and small businesses like these people. Mexican serve a purpose and caring about them has nothing to do with it.

we're trying to kick out mexicans from a country with a latin name & out of states with mexican names. its not that they are a threat, its that they taking advantage of our socialism. remember, socialism was one of the reasons we seceeded from england. the fedgov is out of our control & we dont care. the greatest weapon of the facist is the tollerance of the passifist.

"Blacks" as in Africans ... or "blacks" as in extremely dark skinned Mexicans?\n\nI know there is a major discrimination in Mexico and in south Texas by fair skinned Mexicans against dark complexioned Mexicans.  The darker skins are seen as uneducated, hick farmers, and you average day laborers .. these people are seen as being more Indian.   Where as the fairer skinned Mexicans are the elite of the society:  they are educated, white collar jobs, usually in management/political offices.  The fairer skinned Mexicans are seen as having purer blood lines back to Spain.

It's not about race or ethnicity. Illegal aliens come in all colors. It is not about Mexico or any other specific country. It is about enforcing the immigration laws of the country.
