Sure they are. That's why I'm glad they have a country as noce as Mexico to live in.
Get out of mine.
Good people sometimes do things that are wrong. In those instances they must face the consequences of their actions. Good people accept this, acknowledge that they were wrong, and accept the punishment that is due. If those Mexicans who illegally came into this country are prepared to do this, and return to Mexico, then I would encourage all Americans to accept their apologies and forgive them.
Somehow, however, I don’t see this happening. So, the question becomes, are those who come here illegally, breaking American law, good people if they won’t face the fact of their illegal acts?
I am not honored to receive into my country ANYBODY who sneaks in illegally. And as for their being GOd-fearing good people - God fearing good people do not form gangs, intimidate the people around them, run drug and prostitutes, etc. Do not try to paint these people as harmless little lettuce pickers who live on 3 cents a day and never complain. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we call CRAP.
The author makes no distinction between legal and illegal immigration. In the current context, this is a call to violate US laws. I cannot condone this incitement to lawlessness. It shows a lack of respect for America and Americans. It probably stems from concerns about differences in wealth. Coveting the wealth of others is a sin that is common among the left, even the religious left. It is a sin that has proved harmful to individuals and nations alike. This is a foolish and morally wrong message, and should be repudiated by all Catholics. Their concern should be for lost souls. Maybe that concern no longer motivates them.
I’m sure Mexicans are good people. But why can’t they be good people in Mexico? One must answer this question correctly if one is to truly help Mexicans.
Mexicans who obey the law may be good people. Criminal invaders certainly are not.
First, they were “illegal aliens”
Next, they were “undocumented workers”
Next, they were “immigrants”
Now, they are “Mexican Americans”
Mr. Bemowski, you can change the name all you like. But it doesn’t change the fact that they broke the law by entering this country without authorization.
At a minimum, they are criminals. By law. By definition. How they conduct themselves after they broke the law is irrelevant. They are still criminals.
Next, Mr. Bemowski, I challenge you to prove to me that they are indeed “Mexican”. The fact of the matter is, without documentation and authorization, we simply do not know this.
That is all I needed to read. Done.

our immigration problems with Mexico.
Wow. Vince is quite the word-gamer, yet another that thinks most people are too dumb to see what he’s trying to pull. I wonder if he knows it himself.
Illegal immigrants are NOT good people.
This sentence is so idiotic it's physically impossible for me to read past it.
Mexicans are good people, but illegal aliens are criminal invaders no matter what country they are from.
As it has been pointed out, an illegal alien is like your neighbor moving into your nicer home because you live better than he does. That doesn’t mean Americans are bad people, just that invader is.
Deport the workers and their families will follow.
If they then want to come back LEGALLY, no problem.

I learned in Catechism class probably at age 7 that you weren't supposed to tell lies.
They’d be even better people if they were still in Mexico.
Let them be good people....in Mexico.
