does it seem like the people who are for the Illegal immigrants a little more racist?

If you bring up skin color your racist. Gringo and names like it are racist. Bring up  "white rich" racist. \n\nAnd Mexico didn't own all of the western boarder, Native Americans lived there as well. Your countrymen literally handed everything over to the spanish when they came. Gold and all. Your politicians sold off your lands, we paid for then, your politicians pocketed the money and enslaved your nation.\n\nEvery country in the entire world including Mexico feel they have the right to say if anyone can come live in their country or not. Reality check. Every country in the world requires immigration papers and require you to ASK before coming. \n\nIn answer to the question? Yes a great many amnesty supporters are throwing up the race card alot. When they see they have no grounds for their arguement thats were they take it to manipulate the conversation away from the facts of the issues.

Isn't it racist to say that it's just Americans who are racist?

i agree. they seem to be doing the same thing. the blacks had a better reason for doing it. this is there home country. they had no where else to go. the illegals we have now are disgraceful. they totally disrespect are country. and yes they call black people foul names. and laugh about it. if you say something to them about being hateful they call you ugly nasty names. they are nice to the blacks to their face because they know the black people will kick the dog crap out of them. then ask why they said it, and before they can explain they get their a sses kicked again.\n martin Luther king was a peaceful man, he would most likely be telling us to get along. god bless him.

I think it showed that they have no allegience to the US, or else they would not intentionally try to harm the economy.  However, I don't think they did...and this business about protesting until the government gives them their way...sounds like a temper tantrum to me..and one that needs to be stopped.  And this does not make me racist...it makes me sensible..illegal is illegal, period.  And to the people who are going to talk about the laws 200 years ago...times have changed, laws have changed.. Check out citizenship laws in Mexico...they don't allow illegal immigrants, much less give them drivers lisences, translate all into a foreign language for their convenience, or allow them to protest.

I truly understand and admire you for admitting it.  I, too, have become a racist.  Mexicans are creating a very uncomfortable position for themselves.  Again, thank you for being brave in your admissions.  You are not alone.\n\nTHIS IS WHAT MEXICANS HAVE CREATED!

I think it's that people are against brown folks and assume they're all Mexican.

I know alot of latinos who don't support illegals, and this makes illegals mad. They try to make them feel guilty, and when they can't they start throwing insults and telling them they are a disgrace to their race. I know this because I live in a majority hispanic city, and my husband is also hispanic. They also get mad when other nationalities of legal immigrants don't support them. One woman I know was called " A Vietnamese b****." The man then went on to say she was a disgrace and at this very moment her people were probably plotting her death.

Some of the most racist individuals I have ever encountered are the ones who are constantly claiming Whites to be racist.

It's not racist to only want legal immigrants.  The trouble is, most of the people making all the noise about illegal immigration right now only care about Mexican (and central/south american) illegal immigrants -- because they look different and speak a different language.  That's racist.  If all of our illegal immigrants were from England, they wouldn't say a word.  That they only attack Mexican illegal immigrants belies their true motives.\n\nWhy compare us to communist and dictator/royalty led governments?  We're supposed to be better than they are.  We have in our constitution guarantees of basic human rights, while those other countries do not.  We *should* achieve a workable solution to prevent illegal immigration, but not with racism as its root cause and not at the expense of human rights.  We're supposed to be better than that.

All people are racist.  Some more than others.  I think the ones that scream "RACIST" the loudest are the ones that want something from you and want to make you give it to them.  I don't have any problem with immigration, as long as it is in accordance with our laws and procedures.  I do have a problem with illegal immigrants sneaking into our country and getting more money from the government than I do!

be accepted...From some of the talk I think this has slid race relations back twenties years. The legal hispanics will get dirty looks and receive the same resentment just because of their skin color. I've already heard hispanics this and hispanics that. Dirty, lazy, freeloadin, criminal, gangster, drug dealers and all the other cliched stereotypes.

This is my opinion only but I believe that white america has such an influence on how we view others that it can rub off on other races that are new to this country.  I am sure that there are latinos that are flat out racist but I don't think that it is as big a problem as it is with the white race.  I know many many many latinos and they are like my family.

I speak for myself when I say that illegal is illegal - no matter where they are from.\n\nBut I think you must also understand two things on the Mexican people being "picked on":\n\n1.  The "pro-illegal" people have made them the posterchildren of the "poor illegal immigrants coming to this country for a better life for themselves and their children".  So for that, you can look in your own camp.\n\n2.  The majority of the offenders are from our southern borders.  So they are more of an offender than the other countries (combined - look at the numbers once).  So the Mexican people that are here illegally brought it all on themselves.\n\nSo I think that you really need to stop worrying about the way people think of others.  If they brought it on for themselves, then I have no sympathy for them.  Sorry if that offends you . . .  No wait, I'm not sorry.  Get over it, and realize that it isn't a race issue (Mexican isn't a race), it is a LEGAL issue.  Nothing more.

Who says we americans are racist? some are.. but not all of us.

Yes.  It will help to associate the illegal alien cause with Mexico, and show how this is deeper than just the illegals.  We all need to examine the backgrounds of the leaders of the pro-illegals, and observe some of the racist, pro-secessionist rhetoric coming from these groups.  The cause most think they support is rights for illegals, but the ACTUAL cause of the leaders is socialistic and secessionistic.

I agree, but I think you have suffered more from Americans, both Racist and non-Racist alike! It wasn't the "illegals" who stole your land and murdered your people, those good old white Christians did that!!\n\nRacist do scream a lot though and make themselves look like the fools that they are!!\n\nOh and what makes you racist one asked. It isn't the enforcement of a law that people are screaming about, it's the new law!!\n\nIf you want to enforce a law start with those who illegally hire them. Many illegals are white and went to our colleges and never went home. But you don't have to make racist remarks in doing so!\n\nWhat jerks my chain is that we stole the land from the Mexicans that we call them illegal in! No one wants to hear that!!

I agree with you but looking back at the answers you have recieved I cant believe that people dont think that the minuite men are not racist. Hello they are targeting a single group of people. You may say no to that, they are against illegal immigration, but then why arent they building walls or taking stands in other areas that we see as a place for immigrants to enter this country? It is targeted at the Mexican border, so yes they are racist. About La Raza, I cant say for sure what you are talking about so I cant agree with you on that. Can you please tell us what group they are and what they are doing??
