I don't know the answer to the question about targetting just Mexicans, but I do know that people from practically every country in the world are trying to get into the US, and I would wager that there are a large number of illegals from all countries including European countries. The US controls half of the world's resources, and has only a fraction of the world's population. From a purely logical and scientific point of view, wouldn't that make the US a magnet for large sections of the world's populations. Even if you take Japan and Europe which have very high standards of living as examples, they still have small land mass and high population density, thus making the US with vast amounts of land still very attractive for migrants.

I think you are the gal having a legal mexican bf... Some of us do not forget the word illegal actually I say it and often and I do not agree on how some actions are being taken to solve this issue ,as well as on the american side as on the Mexican/ sud american side. To secure your borders is ok but the way some americans attack them and refer to them is unacceptable even those patrolling and shooting , or those who throw things to ppl while marching no matter what ppl are free to express themselves specially in USA , am I not right? You can not talk about 3er world mentallity and are just showing a bit of missinformation for you to know Mexico belongs to the 2nd world countries.Unfortunatly most of the ppl who cross are ppl who couldn´t really study much and americans do wrong by stereotyping every person cuz of a small group.Not all the ppl in USA have a first world mentallity I can tell I Live on a first world country. Anyway it is not a matter of pin pointing anyone it is a matter of making ppl understand on both sides that the best is to reach an agreement in which both sides will get benefits.

What does it matter where they are from?  The issue is illegal immigration, not the country of origin.  Latinos have assumed a high profile in the marches and in the debate, so there is some reason to think in terms of 'Mexicans'. Your numbers bear that out since that 43% is illegal aliens from all of the other countries in the world, put together.\n\nHowever, I agree that name calling is a distraction at best, and nasty to read.  We could do without it, on BOTH sides of the debate.

look, i grew up in los angeles & have lived in austin texas for the last 20 years. in every city theres a 'china town', 'little mexico', ect. the mexican culture produces goods that enich the community. they are notorious for policing themselves. like any culture, theres always a group that ruins it for the passive. in the usa, policing is insisted upon the state leaving no real enforcement to the neighborhoods out of reach. the only way is for the locals to police themselves, not the government.

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!

No and why would they? America had companies that slave labored their people and polluted the land. They then abandoned the Mexicans for Chinese Communist workers at half the price they paid the Mexicans.

Mexican's are here illegally because many greedy businesses and indiviuals have no problem exploiting them in the United States and they have no problem working for pennies on the dollar. Pennies is still more then they would make in Mexico. It has nothing to do with who owned what.  Money talks.

Yes, I did know that Canada had illegal immigration, what I didn't know was there is a percentage of Mexicans involved. You have educated me to that. I was under the impression that you problem was mostly with Asians and Indian and middle east.

NOT I. Too many others in line trying to do it the right way. It is very insulting to those individuals from all countries including Mexico. And as proof that I am not a raccist, my wife is Mexican and El Salvadorian.There are other legal issues and problems that arise all from this one subject,but not enough time or letters to type it all. I love all people from everywhere, God bless you all in a way that is detrimantal to your survival, but don't cut in front of someone that wants to do it the right way and become a United States Citizen. I know there is more to it than that and I understand. But that is the biggest reason next to an even bigger one I will not talk about online.

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.

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.

Not many countries get involved with Chinese internal issues. Just look at how everybody backed off from the Taiwanese independence issue also.

China is still oppressive.  It's a paranoid government.  They don't give two craps about the universal rights of anything.

What is the problem with that? I don't see the point on this question. If this law is created, supposedly will be made to abide the illegal immigration problem, then, if there are illegal Asians, or from any other country, yes, they should.

It's not only the Mexicans who want a chance to stay, its all the undocumented immigrants who want to legalize their stay. Why does everybody think it is just Mexicans? you seem very ignorant to me.

Yes they are hypocrites.  They totally disregard the law and then run to the law as a means to manipulate for their protection.  It's endless because there is never a sense of any self-responsibility for their actions.\n\nYa......boy I'd love to see the outcome of an invasion like this with China or Korea.  Just would not even be tolerated.  There wouldn't even be a chance to say the word racism or demand anything.
