Why is it that whenever someone talks about immigration, they go straight to the bias and say Mexicans. Last time I checked there are immigrants from asia, india, europe, colombia, guatemala, honduras, venezuela, argentina, peru, and so many other countries. Just because someone speaks a form of spanish because believe it or not every country speaks spanish differently with a whole different vocabulary, you all say Mexican. Mexicans don't call you British because you speak English so why call latinos Mexican becuase they speak Spanish?
Rude comments will be reported so answer respectfully and honestly.
I'm mexican.
I was born here in the United States (Pasadena, CA to be exact)
So lately there has been a bunch of idiots on TV talking about how Mexicans are ruining the country by coming here illegally.
Um.. what about the illegal Asian (which there are many), Cuban, Canadian, European, ect.?????
Last time I checked the plaque on the Statue of Liberty says "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me:
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
Also... EUROPEANS HAVE BEEN IMMIGRANTS SINCE THE 1400's!
Just because you've been born with light skin makes you a higher class??
I have Native American blood in me..
So wouldn't that make me more American then these stupid Europeans who came over and stole the land from my ancestors??
I think the media is brainwashing people. Being mexican you get A LOT of the bullsh*t. I was born here in AMERICA but I still get treated by the way I look. WTF is up??
