I'm guessing that you're talking about Spanish-speaking immigrants from places like Mexico and South America.  Previous answerers have had a lot to say about this question, so I'll just add a little.\n\nThe Spanish-speaking immigrants I know would very much like to learn English so they can get ahead in the United States.  However, they often work long hours for very little pay so they can just put food into their mouths and the mouths of their families.  This leaves them with very little time and/or money to spend on English classes.  For example, I know a 72-year-old woman who works long days for very little pay cleaning people's houses, and she's desperately trying to learn English, but she doesn't have the time or money to take many English classes.  People often take advantage of her by only paying her a few dollars an hour for her hard work.  It's really not fair.\n\nIt's not a question of inability, it's a question of limited resources.  I imagine that if you were in the same situation, it would be hard for you too.\n\nJust so you know for the future, Spanish is the name of the language, but the people are called Mexicans, Venezuelans, Argentinians, and so on.  A term that works for all people of those backgrounds is Latino/a/os.  If you say someone is Spanish that means the person comes from Spain.

Amen brother, It bothers me too. But you have to understand that most of them have also low education and their spanish is not going to be completely "proper", plus they don't really speak spanish all the time and the environment forces the to use only english. By the way I'm hispanic too, but you have to know when and how to speak properly. Chao!

In my city they take up an entire city block. There are so many that the police established a sub-station just for them. The officers must speak spanish and they patrol only that area. Many are required to walk a beat to try to foster good community relations. The neighborhood school is now entirely populated by the offspring of those illegal immigrants. I can tell you that the rest of the city does not get their own substation with officers assigned to walk a beat to foster community relations. Just another example of the hidden costs of illegal immigration.\n\nFor all you pro-illegals out there that want to welcome the illegals with open arms, just try to walk through that neighborhood sometime. See how welcome you are. My guess is that IF you walk away you would have a whole different perspective.

I definitely think you are right on track.  Latinos are definitely defiant.  Streets in the United States are becoming more and more filled with garbage because of the growing Latin community.  I am originally from El Salvador, but my wife and I share your views.  We are not getting enough respect from the Americans because we are NOT AT ALL respecting American Laws.  And it has to do a lot with education.  Maybe the MASSES of latinos living in the United States are mostly uneducated classes looking to enhance their income and actually fleeing their countries.  That makes for a big chunk of people looking very bad in the eyes of the public.

If illegals are living next to me, then our country's law enforcement really sucks.  Why have any legal process whatsoever if illegals can live and work freely for years to earn anough money to buy a decent house in a good neighborhood.  Why does our government allow them to obtain a bank account, buy a car, get a driver's license, enroll their kids in our schools, etc.  It is unbelievable when you think of how many failures/breakdowns need to occur for illegals to remain in this country for years.

Got it on the second try.\nTrick is, you have to drive like the people you HATE to be stuck behind on the road... 5mph below the speed limit, overly cautious when turning onto another street, basically drive like you were a 70 year old lady.

some people pick up on languages faster than others.  sounds like you cousin did a good job...but i can show you many other from germany that haven't picked it up all that well.\ni do think its only fair that if one plans to live in a country for any amount of time they should try to learn the language, but i think people are not near as tolerant as they should be about this...its hard, it takes time.  i spent a year in czech republic, and though i learned enough czech to get by, it was far from fluent, and not for lack of trying.\nthen it gets complicated, as people tend to try to live around those that are similar to them, its more comforting, and easier, and frankly given some of the xenophobia displayed lately i can't much blame anyone for not wanting to be the first south american in a neighborhood.  but this clustering makes it less urgent to learn the language and more difficult.\nas for the press 2...its a sure sign that immigrants (illegal) don't just suck the country dry.  business recognize there is money to be made by making their company more accessible to these people, or they wouldn't be putting in bi-lingual services...think large companies just do these things out of the goodness of their corporate heart? no.  its for money.

If you or your parents, grandparents, etc., came here to the U.S. legally, then I am very proud of saying you are a fellow citizen. However, if you are illegal then you are a criminal. You broke our laws and should not be given any of our benefits or rights, except the benefit of a free ride back to where you came from. I don't hate you, I just want you to play by the rules.

Life is what you make it to be.  There are quite a few well to do Hispanics in my neighborhood who worked for what they wanted.  It may be a struggle but you will eventually get just strive hard for it.  And to the dumb A S S above me with the IGNORANT response.  Check your facts sweetheart....this land was STOLEN from mostly Hispanics and Native Americans and as a Black American I found your answer to be offensive.  Why don't you take your A S S back to where you came from before you stole this land and claimed it as your own!!!!!!!!!!!

First off let me say that I am a white American. I live in  Southern Oregon and speak both english and spanish. I have many Legal Mexican-American friends. That being said. If you sneak into this country you are breaking the law!!! Deport them. My legal Mexican friends moved here seeking better wages and did it legally. Additionally they are very fine people who I am pleased to have in my community. They follow the letter of the law. They are model citizens. They do not like criminals who sneak into our country.

That's kinda racist, don't you think?  You might as well be saying why are Mexicans so lazy, or why are Asians such bad drivers.  Not all Muslims are fanatics, it's just the few that we here about on TV that lead you to assume such ignorant things.

I am Mexican and I lived in the US, but I was not illegal. Most illegal immigrants have a bad way of life and for them the US is the only opportunity to have a better life. I know that it is illegal and wrong, but for most of them, life did get better and it makes me feel good because I HATE seeing anything suffer. The reason why illegals go to the US is that they see the American way of life, and they wish they had such a good quality of life, and unfortunately, in Mexico, many people have a bad quality of life.

Aww how sweet alexthec! Go ahead, call me lazy. I think YOU are the lazy one, sitting on your little cushy American @$$ while immigrants pick your fruit and mow your lawn. Because it goes like this pendejo, one of your ancestors was a 'lazy' immigrant who committed crimes and raised taxes.

I agree. Alot of people where I live really talk down Mexicans,haitians,ect. And I can say that just like all races,there are many uneducated,lazy people. However, if you open your eyes ( I live among many many Mexicans) they work quite hard. The woman who dont work bust their butts to care for the kids on their own and cook,I see them walking with groceries down the streeyt with babies in their arms. Thats hard work! Many of the men work hard out in the heat,even the "drunks" still are out there working. Too many people are just very judgemental about other races and like you said,THATS uneducated.

They're supposed to be able to enter the country illegally at will, and basically not follow any of our laws. If they want to cram 30 people into a 1 family home, then they should be able to do that. Driving without insurance? No problem! Laws are only for us stupid "gringos" to follow. After all, it would be "racist" to expect them to abide by our laws, since it would interfere with their 'human rights" to ruin our country the same way they've ruined theirs...
