This has been going on for years. During Bush years they behaved terribly shouting and praising Bin Laden and whats worse is even in LA and in California the predominantly Mexican crowds behaved as badly.

Just read description of Millwall’s (We are Millwall, No one likes us, We don’t care) stadium, The Den, in London. Visiting team fans are warned not to wear team colors, are segregated to one section of the stadium, are not allowed to leave until the Millwall fans are clear and gone) and walk to the train station on a special, isolated path, escorted by police. So the Mexicans sound pretty tame.

It has been going on for years, like you said. The fans have even thrown balloons or baggies filled with urine at the US players when they’ve played there in the past.

Build the wall now. Then cut off all ties with Mexico. They are an enemy of the U.S. and have nothing to offer us.

The more hatred we share with Mexico, the happier I am. I sincerely hope we end up in a shooting war with them. Sooner the better.
