Undoubtedly. But how much do you think it compares to anti-Mexicanism about some Americans? Anyway, millions of Mexicans want to become American citizens -- that hardly seems like anti-US hatred.
find it alarming that the chanting of "Osama" has happened multiple times
More so than other tasteless sports rivalries?
"Anyway, millions of Mexicans want to become American citizens -- that hardly seems like anti-US hatred."
Do they really? Or do they just want to take advantage of our economy, our healthcare system, our educational system and so on. They want what we have but I haven't seen that they are willing to become americans, at least not like a traditional immigrant.
I don't think their is much racial animosity at all here in the US, just justified concern about the rule of law being patently ignored by illegal immigrants pouring over the borders. You seem to think everything is about racism, just like Jesse Jackson...
If these illegal immigrants love America so much, why were there so many Mexican flags and so few American flags on that first half-million illegal immigrant march a couple of months ago? Why so many racist posters calling for Reconquista, founding of Aztlan, sending the "Europeans" home, etc.?
I'm unconvinced about the 'citizen' thing.
The comparison is that Mexicans are in OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY, we are NOT in theirs! Have you heard of even one American rushing off to Mexico demanding to become a citizen? No, and you won't either.

Good Lord man. Osama MURDERED 3000 AMERICANS. You don't see anything wrong with them chanting their support of that???
