What makes the mexican immigration different from any other???

Wow, people really shouldn't generalize and say that all Mexicans are this and that.  Obviously, stereotypes are there for a reason, but we must understand that many Mexicans don't fall into the derogatory categories that some are throwing around.  I think we also need to look at perspective.  Most of the responses I've heard are from Americans who are most likely more privileged than immigrants from the start.  Mexico is a pretty poor country with not a lot of opportunity.  Those crossing the border are not doing so to sit in a la-z-boy and chug beer.  They braved police punishment and death to get here so that they could find a better life.  It's true that some may come to receive benefits, and what they are doing is illegal, but most are just trying to get out of poverty.  I wonder if we were born into a poor Mexican family if we wouldn't seek to cross the border, any means possible.\n\nInteresting point: Did you know that Mexico's economy would virtually collapse without the money Mexican workers in the U.S. send back to their families and friends in Mexico?

Please understand:\nMost people coming across from Mexico do not hate Mexico.\nThere are Mexicans and Mexican-Americans living in more states than CA, AZ & TX\nThere is more money being sent to Mexico via wire services (as in from family members from outside of Mexico)than is sent to any other country.\nMany Mexican immigrants would rather be in Mexico, there is much progress being made in Mexico with money earned in the USA. Houses are being built, newer better hospitals and businesses are emerging...\nMost of the families left behind in Mexico would praise the day their family members are able to return home and don't have to live and work so far away. Too many young are leaving and some get caught up in American life & don't come back. Most of the families left behind are not waiting to be sent for - they just want their family to come back home.\nMexico is a beautiful country, even though it's kinda rugged & the driving is about an equal to Italian driving, it's really beautiful. I was considering going there for awhile to chill after 9/11, however I have to be able to work. LOL - I am a US citizen.\n\nSoooooo, I think the bottom line is that there are tooo many reservations in these 3 states, especially in Arizona. Native Americans have been messed with too much already. Although all 3 states were once Mexico anyway, I think if there is going to be such a fuss about it, move everyone else out of the southern and border parts of all 3 states, give it all to the rule of the Native Americans & then THEY can decide who gets thru.\n\nHA! & have a GREAT day\n\nEven though my final answer was very creative & this ended up being a fun exercise, could you find better ways of being creative?

One way is obviously the interruptions made from business calls and long calls and his customers children. Another way is from the person(s) he is calling being late so he must have to hurry to get everything he needs to say in a short amount of time obviously leaving out bits and pieces. Also his hosts wanting to talk about everything but business again makes him have to talk quickly leaving out key info. I would say that the cultural differences are that Hispanic or Mexican persons are very family oriented and warm and welcoming more to U.S. wanting to get down to business. Alot of U.S. Businesses do not allow children in the office so maybe another cultural difference is because the Mexican customers are more family oriented the children go with them to alot more outings and business type ordeals. Good Luck!

I am not sure where you read that.  I can see whites and Mongolians, but negroid?  Where did you read that?  Mexicans are a mix of native Indians and Spanish.  Mexico has had a lot of migration throughout the years.  Have you ever traveled there?  There are people from all over Europe, Jews, Chinese, Americans even Polish to name a few.

Even American Indians fought for different hunting grounds.  Our European ancestors that settled here were just better warriors.  Now we have boarders and laws.  They are observed in all other countries on this planet, the USA should not be any different.  Mexico has some of the toughest immigration laws and some of the harshest penalties for breaking them.

The border policy is bull. And honestly, it's in the news and all, but the people I talk to in Southern California.. we don't care! It's just the media hype making it out to be a bigger deal than it is (I hope). To get a little stereotypical, what would we possibly do without Mexicans?? Honestly, who would cook, clean, cut grass, wash the dishes, and do all the other jobs that nobody else wants?? And they are not stealing our jobs, because nobody wants them! And if a Mexican is smart enough to compete with us for jobs (not saying they aren't, many many are!) then that is great! Who are we to decide who gets what? Honestly, the crimes that some of them commit aren't enough to deport an entire group of people. And finally, for the kicker.. WE ALL ENTERED THIS COUNTRY ILLEGALLY! I hate that argument, but honestly, it is true.

I know several people from Mexico, and they are proud to be Mexican. Yet people from Mexico dislike being called Mexicans in a context which indicates them as being stupid, incompetent, or "lesser" than another person or race (wouldn't you?). This is especially common in the United States. It's not right, but it happens nonetheless.

That's a loaded question. Illegal immigrants of all races are deported. Mexicans and Americans of Mexican descent are not targeted. A lot of the illegal immigrants that come through do happen to come from Mexico.

What? Did you fail English, check your grammar. You are hurting not only are you an ignorant racist but a dumb one too.  Illegals don't only come from Mexico, they come from many different countries all over the world.  Not all Mexicans are illegals and not all illegals are Mexicans.  Confused?  I bet you are!

I agree. I am mexican and love Mexico and its people. Although, the mexicans that live in Mexico are much different than the ones living in the U.S. But still, I think the majority of mexican people are humble, nice, sweet and very lively. ITs very ignorant for some people to say bad things of Mexico and their people when they have never even traveled to Mexico.

Lack of Education - Possible. People might think Mexicans rule the Hispanic world!\n\nDescrimination - Again, possible. There are some pretty bad rumors out there about Mexicans.\n\nGeneralization - A lot of Hispanics I know are Mexican. Maybe they assumed most every Hispanic person is Mexican.

I know there are a lot of immigrants that are not white.  The reason people focus on Mexicans is because they are trying to use racism to get their own way with immigration laws.  Also Mexicans make up the majority of immigrants to the united states and they are relatively well organized when it comes to protesting.  This makes them more of a threat to the white American way of life.
