Honestly, why are Mexicans here in the U.S proud of Mexico?

We are extremely proud of our country because we are inheriting two of the original civilizations existing in the world:\n\nThe mesoamerican civilization.\nthe western civilization.

I'm proud of the United States for a number of reasons. \n\n- We have a relatively fair system of justice. There are very few places that do as well as we do in that realm. \n- We have quite a bit of freedom guaranteed by our Constitution, and in fact defended by our justice systems. \n- We have a good history of promoting invention for reasonable profit. That has resulted in a LOT of important innovations. \n- We used our financial, military, and diplomatic resources to stop several major threats, including Hitler and Stalin. \n- We just this week stood up against the out-of-control domestic right-wing movement despite a propaganda network on a scale of those used by Hitler and Stalin. \n\nWe're far from perfect, and we may still fall to our religious extremists, but there is no doubt that the United States has been an overall force for good, and a vital one.\n\nI could find many good things to say about many other countries as well. I don't think this needs to be a contest between countries: it'd be a dull and lesser world if they were all alike.

I'm guessing it may be a combination of ignorance, arrogance and a sense of entitlement.  When pressed, many of the illegals and their supporters openly admit that they consider the Southwestern US to be "occupied" territory, taken from Mexico.  This is simply a symptom of that view.

They have pride for where they came from. Though I'm an American (I was born here) I'd still wave a Chinese flag along with an American one.

It means you have pride in your country.

It is the land of Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, California, Nevada and Utah that the Mexicans claim we stole from them. We beat their butts in the Mexican-American War and  paid $15million for the privilege. Now they want to cry 'foul' and say we 'stole' it, losers. Here are some websites" \nhttp://www.boundless.org/2002_2003/features/a0000660.html\nhttp://www.splcenter.org/intel/intelreport/article.jsp?aid=186\nhttp://www.barnesreview.org/The__Reconquista_-Mexico_s_Dre/the__reconquista_-mexico_s_dre.html\n\nThe following website is blocked by Y!A so copy/paste it and take out the spaces:\n\nhttp://www. azt lan.net/ la_gran_ marcha.htm\n\nYou are required to be a legal citizen of the USA or have legal documentation to go there since it is PART OF THE USA and Mexicans just can't STAND it because it's OURS not theirs. \nThey are so JEALOUS!! \n\nAZTLAN belongs to the USA!!\n\nAnd THEY can't have it !!!  LMFAO

Mexicans are hard working and love their families as much as AMericans do. I dont' hate mexicans, and if I was in their position I would cross the border. Mexicans will out work americans and are more appreciative since most grew up with nothing.\n\nNAFTA was desined to slowly build their economy and make their lifestyles better and create a marketplace of millions more consumers. Turned out just a bunch of greedy rich people wanted cheap labor.\n\n Let's build up Mexico like it should properly be done, then they wont need to cross the border. In the mean time, get use to it.

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.

They're probably waving their Mexican flags and yelling,"Viva Mexico!"  If they love their country so much, why are they here?

the Mexicans that I meet in New Jersey are so much more laid back than other people. I think they have an inner sense of who they are and a quiet dignity, while everybody else is cussing and going nuts. Of course, it is only a small community here, and most of these people here are of amerindian background and come from small towns in the state of Puebla, so they may not be entirely representative. When I have traveled to Mexico, too, I have been impressed with people's sense of their own culture, and I was impressed that everybody, no matter what their background, knows how to pronounce the mile-long names of all those Aztec gods.

immigration. well i am full blooded Mexican American. my father was in Vietnam, grandfathers in world war II, I struggle to get to pay bills. hard to find a decent job. but i manage and tell my daughter how great this country is every day. It angers  me to see Mexican nationals go to the grocery store, pay for there food, complain about sale priced items only to pay with food stamps and then to see them load it up in there escalade, or other brand new car. but yet there plates still show Mexico. they only come to complain about our society. but yet will mooch off it as much as possible. well Monday they are to do a strike. if any one is in position to fire anyone, then get those illegals and people that should remember just where you live. freedom is not free. and my family as well as many other families fought and gave life for this freedom. don't throw that though away just for people who don't deserve it. if you are American citizen, then do your part and go to work. remember where you came from and remember why people want to come to this country. long live the USA

Sir,\nYou make me very proud to be an american, Bravo.  I wish more people were like you.  Good point though if you dont want to be here than get the hell out.  If you dont agree with the way we do things here well than get the freakin hell out.  If you are going to try and fly a mexican flag on american soil well get ready to get a flag pole shoved up your a$$ and get ready to get kicked out.

Now, you are a Mexican person that I can try to understand.  However, I also feel as Hayleylov does about your "loving Mexico."  If you love Mexico, why did you leave it?  If you love Mexico, why don't you go back there and try to help that country?  Why don't you just admit that Mexico is an awful country because they don't love or help their people?  If they did, their people wouldn't be making tracks to the USA for a better life!  I would understand you more if you said that you love your people and your culture, but that you don't love the government of Mexico and that you want to do something to change things back home.  I like that you seem to understand how the American citizens feel about the marching in the streets of the illegal immigrants and the waving of their flag while doing so.  However, you also say, "I want our country to thrive here and some day we can have mexican people in the senate and we can help more of our people and become stronger but not by hating them it wont happen that way my people lets me nice to them."  That whole sentence is offensive to American citizens!  No, you should want your country to thrive in Mexico, not here, and you should fix the government of Mexico, not state how you want Mexicans in the senate [in the USA] - that is not the way into the heart of Americans. That still sounds like you are "taking over."  Stop that kind of talk if you want to be accepted in the USA!  I, also, am from two countries - I was born in the USA and now live in Canada, having immigrated (legally) to Canada with my family many years ago and I have legal citizenship of both countries. I also love both countries very much!  However, I did not come to Canada saying that we Americans are going to take over Canada and place our American people into positions in the Canadian government, etc.,  Yes, be nice to the American citizens and talk about how much you love the USA and your mother country of Mexico and how you hope to make things better for your people in Mexico one day.  That is a much better and more acceptable way to be speaking when you have come to another country.  Believe me!
