Can anyone explain something to me? These people left the craphole country of Mexico because they couldn't find jobs or something. Hence the cry of, "We just want to work!" Now when they come to the US, they protest in the land of plenty. So somebody explain to me why there aren't protests like this is Mexico over how crappy it is?

I don't think any of this is about anything they say it is. I think it is really about the things that are not reported, when Mecha-types talk about how "anyone of European descent has been illegally in the U.S. since 1492." (The idiocy of that statement coming from a descendent of Spaniards amazes me.) I think it all has to do with the Reconquista and not much to do with actual jobs. If it was just jobs they were protesting over then they could do it in Mexico. Or would the Mexican police just shoot them?

There are protests in Mexico, just not enough of them. The people up here are the ones who are (IMO) too cowardly to fight for their own country. It's easier for them to cut and run.

I doubt if Mexico would start shooting them as they have in the past. There are now many human rights organizations with their eyes on Mexico and Mexico's government doesn't need the aggravation.

The Spanish language radio stations have been telling their listeners that Congress has been trying to pass bills making it illegal to hire Hispanics. (As opposed to illegal aliens)

The two people I talked to who have been listening to these stations didnt even know it was already illegal to hire an illegal alien for work. Then got bold and asked them how they happened to come to the US...and they both admitted that they snuck in in the 1970s and 1980s, but both had married citizens, etc.
