MAYBE WE JUST NEED TO BE MORE TOLERANT?

After looking at this picture, maybe the Mexicans don't like brown people, Miss USA is the darkest finalist. And the NY Times had to pick, what has to be, the ONLY picture with Miss USA not smiling.

In fact, I AM embarrassed that there are ANY hispanics in this country. I wish they would all go away, back to the hovels they came from.

It's unfortunate your post began quite rationally, focusing on the source of your frustration, and then devolved into the all too common "I don't like any Hispanics. Deport 'em all."

Sorry. We are not going away. We are here: citizens born to legal parents, taxpayers, business owners and voters who speak English at home. We hate illegal immigration as much as you. In fact, it's hated more, because we honest citizens get lumped in with criminals simply because we share similar last names. Every time you read a poll saying "Hispanics" favor illegal immigration, understand that real Americans consider themselves Americans first. Please do not revile us for policies in which we have had no hand, but are pleading with our politicians to change. We want our borders secured, and criminal illegals deported.

It sure didn’t help that the all American judging panel placed Miss USA in the finalist round even after she plopped on her keester.

Afterall...they were supposed to be getting judged on grace and elegance.

As I understand it...she was being treated badly prior to that, and there is no excuse for that.

Even so...when the judges moved her on after her tumble, the booing really escalated.

Sounds like a buncha bigots down there, ya know?

Uh-huh. Maybe they've read some of the immigration threads in here from which to foster their position?

Well, one can put whatever spin one cares to. But, playing the race card does not work with conservatives.

Mine the border,you only cross at customs checks and with a proper visa....

...and a week later you will be able to buy second hand mines cheap in Mexico.

Mexicans booing Miss USA..........Just the sort of disrespectful behavior we should reward with blanket amnesty........not that they will be happy with that. Next it will be the "reconquista."

(Scoff) Yeah, sure. These are the SAME people who, as soon as they illegally cross the border, "magically" become model US citizens who respect our sacrosanct laws and our culture (/sarc).

Anyone who thinks we will stand by and let illegal aliens destroy our country, stomp all over our laws, decimate our culture, and take back the SW, is a blithering idiot.

OK put up a sniper tower every 500 yards to stop the mine from being stolen.

"Inevitably, the US is going to find itself in a situation where there simply will be no other choice, but to invade Mexico."

We'll have to push them back from L.A., Phoenix, Austin, and Santa Fe before attempting that.

(I didn't think too many people would know where Barstow, Cottonwood, Uvalde, or whatever other town New Mexico has, were.)

"Next USA v Mex soccer game held in the USA the Gringo cwowd should shout La-Meeg-Ra, La-Meeg-Ra, La-Meeg-Ra."

You obviously have never been to a pro soccer game in California....

To order a Tecate in Ingles, press numero tres.

If you heard anyone shouting la-meeg-ra, there'd be a guy in uniform under the pile.

Mexico & the U.S. have never been friends. They have always resented the U.S. since the days of the Alamo.

A border fence should have been built after the Pancho Villa incident, IMO.

" Does anybody know if Miss USA got an apology from any Mexican officials?"

Yes she did and Miss Mexico apologized to Miss USA after the national costume parade when the crowd booed Miss USA. Its crappy that some individuals rude behavior has to spill over like this, both Miss Mexico and Miss USA are sweet ladies.
