So this means Mexico is racist because they kick out or put in jail any illegals they can find.

If patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel, the Race Card must be penultimate.

It would be dishonest not to acknowledge that some percentage of people who oppose illegal immigration are racist. In particular, this portion will let slip phrases indicating an opposition to all immigration in general from certain countries. However, it would also be dishonest not to acknowledge that some percentage who support it are racist. These people usually have a condescending, though perhaps not overt, attitude toward low-wage immigrants.

Yes, Mexicans are racists. They humiliate our countrymen by ignoring our laws when they come across the border illegally. They even burn American flags. Hatred for American culture is nonsense.

We want to keep illegal "migrants" from sneaking into our country and we're called "racist". Well what RACE are we "racist" against?

Are Mexicans a race? We let all Cubans in that can get here and Puerto Rico is a Commomwealth so we can't be racist against Spanish speaking people. When did Spanish speaking people become a race? Are french speaking people a race? How about russian speaking?

If they really *thought* that about us, why are they coming here in droves to work here illegally?

The survey, co-sponsored by the Dallas Morning New and Mexico's El Universal newspaper, found that the largest segment of respondents - 43 percent - cited racism as the chief reason that Americans oppose illegal immigration.

The simple fact is that the Mexicans are playing guilt-ridden American liberals like a cheap violin.

As a Cuban American, I am fluent in Spanish. When I have traveled in Mexico and have gotten into political discussions with the locals in Spanish, they focus on the "Cuban" instead of the "American" and start talking to me about "los norteamericanos" and don't pay much attention to the fact that "I represent that remark".

When they are not trying to B.S. a "norteamericano", the Mexican will flat-out admit to you that Mexico is quite strict in dealing with its own illegal aliens.

I was also told that the flood of illegal aliens has a lot to do with the mixed messages that "los norteamericanos" put out. Namely, "los norteamericanos" will say that they do not want illegal aliens and then they will turn right around and issue them a drivers license!

In actuality, the conservative will say that the U.S. does not want illegal aliens but the liberal will then undermine that message by issuing illegal aliens a drivers license.

Like teenagers that have learned to play their permissive Mom against their strict Dad, the Mexicans are pushing all the liberal Guilt Buttons and then laughing as the liberal bends over backwards to do things for illegal aliens in the U.S. that Mexicans would never dream of doing for their own illegal aliens in Mexico.

As a Cuban would say, the Mexicans are treating the American liberal as a "comemierda" (Literally, a "sh#t-eater". A fool. An idiot. Someone who can't tell sh#t from Shinola.)

The same poll found that 76 percent of Mexicans think that crossing into the U.S. illegally should not be a crime.

Then they are hypocrites of the first order.

Their own immigration laws are quite harsh.

Maybe. I also think the establishment liberals and their fellow travelers in the spanish language media (both US and Mexican) are playing immigrants like a cheap violin. I have yet to hear anything in the media remotely objective concerning immigration.

A "recent arrival", legal or otherwise, is told constantly that Americans are racists, and until he's been here long enough to learn the language and interact with ordinary folks, he has no way of knowing any different.

Makes you wonder WHO is teaching them to say that, when 99% of them cannot speak English, doesn't it?

These airheaded morons tossing around words like "racism" should not be allowed to define the debate in their terms.

Americans see illegal invaders taking over our streets waving foreign flags, preaching revolution, the overthrow of the US government, annexation of the border states, and occupation by a foreign government.

This is national security we're talking here. Not racism.

OK, call the US racist if you want. But do it from home, not from my country.

Why don't they list Mexico's immigration laws and practices (such a rape, beatings and theft) and poll Americans whether they think Mexicans are racist?
