What would have happened if all the Mexicans that marched on May 1, 2006 took up arms and became violent?

Sorry, just because people protest does not make them violent.  Why would they take up arms and damage the economy that provides work for them.

Who stated that white people were afraid of Mexicans?  That's an awfully big leap of thought you have. ;p

The scenario you describe could very well happen here.  Especially if illegals receive amnesty and are able to bring tens of millions more of their relatives from back home.  They will pretty soon become a majority - at least in places like California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.\n\nUnfortunately, most people refuse to look at history and learn its lessons.

Funny question.  You never know what will happen, huh?  I think people WILL start sneaking back to Mexico if it gets too bad for them here.  Don't most of us "go see mom or dad" when things get bad?

yes. They will awaken the silent minority who will get pissed off and activate to get all the illegals kicked out or jailed.

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.

Oh heck no if that was to happen it would be the ghetto of the USA. I read in an artitical a few week back where Vincente Fox of Mexico was talking to some people of Columbia saying that the Mexicans were going to over rule our government. Don't know how true the source really was but as daddy says talk is cheap.

Some parts are safer than others but it is not a safe place in general. Mexico is a country that teeters on the verge of revolution. It is unstable and unpredictable. Its only a matter of time until violence against Americans increases.

Even if America told the Mexican government the exact time and day of an attack, the Mexican government would be helpless against the American armed forces. I am not really sure what this talk of food has to do with anything though

20 more years and Mexicans will finish the invasion. Learn Spanish now, people.. you'll need it to fight for the few jobs Mexicans won't want to do.

Oh my god don't get me started on this subject.  I would love to start a group of people who rounded up illegal immigrants, tied them up, threw them into the back of a truck and then dropped them off in the middle of Mexico.  I don't mind immigrants.  But the ones who sneak in here illegally don't deserve to stay.  I'd love to go to a protest!

Since your all more or less brainless (or just hate digging up the facts).\n\nyesterday was a day without an immigrant, not an illegal.\n\nCinco (not Cinque, thats French) de Mayo is the 1862 Battle of Puebla where the Mexicans said Goodbye to the French Army under the power of Napolean. It has nothing to do with raping women and celebrating a country that failed them, it has to do with winning an epic battle against what was the strongest army in the world.\n\nOh, and if Mexico had not beaten the French, the USA would have been split down the middle forming two countries to avoid the massive expanse of power that was happening, and the rest of the world forces feared for the other powers. A bit like today really.\n\nSo for once, you can say Thanks to the Mexicans, because they saved your arse.\n\nSo please stop being so dumb. Please. Your all embarrasing yourselves. And for your info, its not a day off either.\n\nAnd i find it totally ironic that after telling the Mexicans to bugger off home, you now want to celebrate theyre holiday. How stupid can you be?
