The author seems a bit confused. The title proclaims that Mexicans are good people, but the article itself doesn’t talk about Mexicans. Instead, the writer talks about Americans of Mexican decent. The only way to explain this, other than ignorance, is to assume that the author feels that those of Mexican decent cannot ever become truly American; a bigoted statement on the author’s part, to be sure, but not uncommon within the Democrat Party.

“Unlike some other Americans, many Mexican Americans are good people who possess a deep faith in Almighty God. Therefore they deserve to be treated with compassion & respect.”

So are at least 75% of Anglo-Americans.

Churches who lobby on purely political issues should be taxed like ANY other PAC.

Nobody says Mexicans aren’t good people.

Illegal Aliens regardless of race are lawbreakers. Good or not they entered this country illegally and should be returned to their country of origin.

Mexican
Iraqi
French
Canadian
or English.

Go home and come back LEGALLY!

Got it now?

The theme of the article has absolutely no relevance to the argument over immigration policy. Mexicans could be the greatest, noblest people on the planet; it would not make it desirable to incorporate tens of millions of them into the population of the United States!

People are not interchangeable. Mexicans are unique, and so are the well-rooted peoples of America. There is no reason to try to replace the one with the other in the domains of either. The idea of an interchangeable ethnicity is an insult to every people, but it has been aggressively promoted for the last sixty years by various Leftist groups and theorists, almost all of which have one thing in common: They favor a one world Government, which will suppress the independence of all nations. It is an objective that ought to be resisted with every means at our disposal.

If the writer of this has such good will towards Mexicans, why is he condemning those Mexicans least able to help themselves to a continued corrupt government, by making it easier for the most motivated Mexicans to escape, rather than seek a change?

“Unlike some other Americans, many Mexican Americans are good people who possess a deep faith in Almighty God.”

what a bigotted statement!!!

So apparently we should let Mexicans stay even if they came illegally because *they are better than us*!?!?

never mind that this claim has been horoughly debunked in terms of social pathologies, family breakups, crime, illiteracy, etc. the illegal immigrants here are not the people we would have here if we had a legal immigration process.

Coming from a Catholic source, I am ashamed to be Catholic with this kind of nonsense.

I'm a "good person".
Is it OK if I don't pay my income taxes anymore?

No? - Where's the compassion?

Mexicans and other latin americans are being feretted here for three reasons.

1. Workers for the Repulican business owners.

2. Voting block for the Dems.

3. To pay for the Social Security Benefits of the baby boomers in the coming years.

Good, bad, nice; none of that has anything to do with immigration, illegal immigration or what our “leaders” want.

Sound like they are describing Democrats...but then they have to account for why those "good Mexicans" routinely vote for the those "other Americans".

H'mmmm. Maybe they aren't so "good" after all...

Sir:

It is not being un-Christian to take a stand against a barbarian invasion. These people do not share our values nor do they hold this nation and its laws in their esteem. They are not here for citizenship; they do not wish to join our culture and our nation and raise it above the others in the world; they are here for loot, plain and simple.

As for “bigotry,” last time I checked “Hispanics” were lumped in with “Caucasians” for the purposes of the Census; The “Hispanic” race is a creation of Marxists attempting to divide our society so that it may be reduced and conquered.

Furthermore, it is not “bigotry” to be disposed against a culture, the behavior it entails, and the people that follow it. The lack of opportunity in their nations is largely a product of their own corrupt culture and I do not wish to see it imported here. Mexico is one of the wealthiest nations on Earth - it is the corruption of Mexican culture that accounts for the lack of opportunity in that benighted country.

While I find your willingness to redistribute the wealth of others to these invaders distressing, I find your accusation of bigotry against people who wish to defend their homeland, their culture and their way of life enraging! WE are not the ones forming groups like “La Raza” - The Race, whose motto is “For those within the Race, all; for those outside the Race, nothing” or MeCHa - a revolutionary organization dedicated re-conquering the American Southwest.

In the National Parks, despite what compassion may incline you to do, the message is “Don’t Feed the Bears.” To you, sir, I say “Don’t Feed the Illegals.”

Sorry if we’ve offended your sensibilities, Vince.

BTW, I’m not a bigot — I’m a patriot of the sovereign and law-based United States of America.

Is Lexington’s example relevant here? Or are they just not the ‘good’ Mexicans you wrote of?
