Oolong is going for 27 yuan a pound in Beijing right now.
nor is Ireland a hostile foreign country in which its citizens are taught to hate and resent the USA for stealing “their land”.
Mexico is an ally of the United States, a trading partner of the United States and it is to be expected that Mexico has its own viewpoint about the war it instigated with the United States 150 years ago.
Mexicans are not taught to hate America any more than Americans are taught to hate Japan.
Nor is there as a result an Irish equivalent of Atzlan or La Raza.
There is and was an Irish mafia. There are and have been IRA sympathizers and fundraisers here too.
I'm all for expelling terrorist sympathizers and criminals of any ethnicity.
There is NO COMPARISON to be made by a sane person between the 19th century Irish and the 20th/21st centuries Mexicans.
LOL! That's right - anyone who disagrees with you in your sovereign wisdom must be mentally ill, right?
The paranoid reaction to the Irish in the 19th century is identical to the paranoid reaction to the Mexicans in the 21st.
Those of us who are not caught up in the mass hysteria and refuse to share your fixations have our reasons for refusing to participate: Mexico can be a source for millions of young, hardworking, enterprising Christian immigrants, the kind of vital ing=fusion that has kept America young and adventurous.
The current system is broken and needs to be fixed, but at the end of the day America should have at least 10 million new Mexican citizens. It's good for America.
Sir:
Unchecked Mexican immigration is NOT GOOD for America. My wife is 100% Tejano, and her family has been in Texas since the 1820’s, and SHE doesn’t like what is happening. The illegals are not assimilating, but simply using us.
Some of my own ancestors came over from Ireland 7 Scotland, but were proud to become Americans. These illegals have no desire to do so. They want our money, our benefits, and that is ALL!
