Not the same as with those from south of the border. Many still can't speak english and don't have any intentions of doing so. And their loyalty remains with Mexico, etc. No, it is not the same.

... sheeesh....""Many still can't speak English and don't have any intentions of doing so. And their loyalty remains with Mexico, etc."". . . Really? Just exactly how do you know this.. Are you a Mexican, living amongst the multitude? Perhaps you are married to a Mexican, with a huge family that refuses to speak English, living amongst the multitude of Mexicans who feel exactly the same?

Are you a Spanish teacher in the inner city, with an enrollment that refuses to learn or has no interest in learn any language because they long to be back in Mexico? Fascinating..

Pretty simple -- look at how many resist English only propositions and laws around the U.S.?

There is a huge movement against English only. Why?

And why do so many Hispanics (oh sorry, it is Latinos now) demand that Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California be returned to Mexico, if they are loyal to the U.S. I hear this every Cinco De Mayo.

The sad truth: until they assimilate like my ancestors did, they will continue to be relegated to the low-end jobs. Which by the way, they don't do all that well at either.
We have stopped ordering special hamburgers from McDonalds. They rarely get the order right because they don't speak English very well.
