Is this the immigration category or the Mexican bashing category?

It's the immigration category.  This question should be in the snide, sarcastic, self-important category.

no, it is not. However, it is anti Christian to be against illegal immigrants.

1) There is no guest worker program. furthermore,guest implies you were invited, you were not. \n2) Can "gringos" sue you for all your racist remarks.\n3) To be slander, the statement has to be false.\n4) If you hate the U.S, why are you here?

Why is that in the immigration section?

it is against the law and should be stopped. it's not the "immigrants" i have a problem with, it's the "illegal" part that bothers me. i'm cool with legal immigration.

And the immigration topic is where?

Easy, just go through Yahoo Answers and you can see the callousness of people discriminating against non-citizens.  Well, actually against anyone who is of different ethnicity or defends those who are.

I never experienced anything quite like that when I went to Mexico, but I'm sure it's because I was with a Mexican citizen (my ex-husband--we were there to get his US citizenship). But we were badly over charged for goods and services many places we went because I was a white American. He was majorly pissed, but even he knew there was nothing we could do about it. I would not go back there because I know I would face a lot of prejudice, at this time especially. The violence against tourists from the US could eventually keep all of us away. But if that's what they want then I will respect it. We need to send their citizens back home to them as well. Respectfully deport them and enforce our immigration laws. We don't want to repay violence with violence unless we have no choice.

Absolutly making it worse!!!  Just like the terriorists are making it worse for Muslims.  They say all muslims aren't terriorists but all terriorists are muslim.  All Mexicans aren't members of the Atzlan/Reconquista crowd but all members are Mexican.  The legal families as well as illegal who do not agree with them are "collateral damage" in their broad scheme.  Why else would 2 non-english speaking students beat the crap out of another who did?  Why would a fellow Mexican get drug out of his car and beaten during a Mexican holiday for having an American flag on his car?  Why would another have scalding coffee thrown in his face because he was against amnesty?  Why do they make it a "race" thing when the head of the Minutemen in Il. is latino?  Other Minutemen are latino.  Where was the race card when 2 Mexican-American  border patrol agents are being unjustly punished for doing their job?  The American people are behind them.  They'll support Elvira who is breaking the law and leave their own out to dry for supporting the law.  They are playing the language card to further cause a rift and seperation of people.  Even when people who learn Spanish to try and communicate...it's not the "right" Spanish....it has to Mexican Spanish.  Anything and everything to push everyone who isn't Mexican out of the picture.  How well do you think a Korean-American is going do speaking the Mexican version of Spanish?  Sorry.....but no.....they are doing incrediable damage.  Their hate and their agenda is far louder and having more impact on the American people than anything.

Disrespect and blatant ignorance. I tie these two together. I hate bigotry, especially in it's most assinine form, like when African Americans use the "N" word. These folks, usually younger, don't see the pain and power in such evil. I had a roommate who remembers not being able to go into restaurants but having to go to the kitchen and get food by way of the back door, you know, where the mexicans were. That is hate for hates sake, I have no room for it, ever. Think about what this man felt like having to watch his mother go to the back door to get food, like an alley cat or dog. There is no reason to glorify such nonsense, I don't care who you THINK you are.

Sounds like this professor is looking for a sob story of a mexican immigrant to build their own internal case.  Whether or not you believe in immigration laws or not you should play to your teacher's desire and write a sob story about someone who came over.

They hope to incite hatred against immigrants. They are mean.

Ed, I completely agree with you that it isn't much of an inconvenience at all.  I think that people are using the "inconvenience" argument to cover up for the fact that they are just angry and frustrated about immigration in the U.S.  Often when people say they don't like a language it's actually a reflection that they don't like the people who speak that language.  So, frustration at pressing 1 could actually be a reflection of racism towards Mexican people.

WE use the race card? Pro-illegals are the ones that state that "Not all illegal immigrants are Mexican", then say that "The only reason you people hate illegals is that you don't want a taste of the Hispanic culture."
