I want to to know why so many poeple are raises to the !mexicans!?

Question

Well I ask cause they want to to send the mexicans back to mexico, when they just want to !work!!

Answer 1

Um i have no idea ``why ppl are raises to Mexicans``.

I think i know why they are RACIST'S

Answer 2

we want to send them back to mexico because they aren't paying !taxes! and are here !illegally!  i have no problem with anyone who comes to this country legally.  just don't come here illegally and expect me to be happy that my !taxdollars! are paying for your medical care and food stamps.

Answer 3

Often they come here illegally, they enroll their children in our schools, get free lunches, free medical cards, wic, and use false ssn's to get their jobs.  They claim 8+ exemptions on their W-2's, very little taxes are taken out (which help pay for the public education, free & reduced lunches, medicaid, wic, etc.)  If they just did things LEGAL it would be much better.  

I have nothing against legal immigrants of any race.  But I don't care if you are Canadian, Mexican, Vietnamese, or Martian, if you're  in the USA illegally then you're a criminal.

Answer 4

Because they take up all of the work.

They illegally jump the border.

Somtimes, well Usually are discusting.

By discusting i mean live like 20 people to one

of those little houseish shack thngs in the middle

of a field.

Answer 5

Most people are only "raises" towards the ILLEGAL ones.

Answer 6

Don't take it personally, it's not just Mexicans. Americans feel that if anyone breaks the law and sneaks into this country illegally they are not likely to be model citizens. This does not even raise the issue of illegals taking American jobs and social services that should by rights go to Americans. Right now the jails in California, NY and Florida are swamped with illegals and 10% of the Federal prison population are illegals and this puts a crushing burden on American taxpayers.

Answer 7

Well, we'd like to work too.

Answer 8

you want to know why people are "raises to the Mexicans"?

mother o lord,what has happend to the education system.

Answer 9

Good freaking lord, nobody wants to send Mexicans back to Mexico, geez, they want to send illegal back to where they came from.

Where on earth do you get this bull.  btw, if you've been to L.A., there are more than enough Mexicans there that are in gangs and not here to "work" as you put it.

Grow up already.

Answer 10

Because they think that Mexicans take jobs away from Americans...But that's a lie because no Americans want to cut grass, or clean public bathrooms, or work in contruction.

Answer 11

First of all, I think the word you want to use is racist. Second of all, we are not racist. I have no problems with Mexicans or any other race of people being here, as long as they are legal. I understand that you want to work, but in this country, if you want to work, you have to follow certain laws. One of them is that you have to be in the country legally. If you want to work, come into the country legally. When I apply for a job, I have to show proof that I am who I say I am. I have to prove that my social security number is actually mine. All people who want to work should have to follow the same rules. Why should you or anyone else be allowed to break the rules just because it is easier to sneak in and find a job than it is to do it the legal way? If I have to give proof of who I am and proof that I am legal to be here, then so should all of you who sneak across the border. But, if you sneak across the border, you don't have proof of being here legally. If working here is so important to you, then you should be able to find a way to do it legally.

Answer 12

Because of the law of supply and demand. If you have more mexicans, wages go down.

Answer 13

Well its just that pesky little thing called the law. Yes when you reach adulthood you have to follow the law or pay the price.

The price to violate federal immigration law is deportation. To work in the US one needs a valid work permit or green card.

This law applies to Mexicans as well. Hope this helped your understanding of the way things work in the world

Answer 14

People that are racist are usually that way out of ignorance.  Many people do not understand the situation that is immigration in totality, and therefore then tend to have views that are less informed than they could be.

Answer 15

I think it is not so much Mexicans they don't like. I think it is just illegal immigrants. I do know of some that just don't like anybody though that isn't like they are. It is sad though that some people don't like Mexicans. Some of the nicest people I have met are Mexican.

Answer 16

Its really obvious to me.. i dont know about any of you but!

Mexicans are taking over the US!! lol ... many "Americans" are so scared that someone named "Pancho" will be their boss.. so who ever is racist against 'Mexicans" grow up and face reality. Americans are not always going to run america.. Take a look at Obama.. Case closed.. =)

Answer 17

they come across the border and people dont like it.

Answer 18

personally, I don't think anyone from another country, who can speak english is wrong for being here. even if they are here illegally. I have issues with all the gangs and crime done by people who are illegal. If a person wants to be honest and just work here. fine.

Answer 19

because they cant speak proper english and spell words like RACIST!!!!

Answer 20

No one should be aloud to commit crime,  anyone here illegally is committing a crime.  So, if I want to keep a murder in jail that wants out, am I a racist against prisoners? What you are accusing people of makes no sense. Do it the legal way or....if you do the crime, do the time.

Answer 21

It's not that people are racist towards Mexicans but rather illegal immigrants.  Because we share a border with Mexico, their numbers in this country have become overwhelming.  Since they are illegal, they try to avoid paperwork for fear of deportation but that also means that for the most part, they don't pay income taxes.  Subsequently, due to their large numbers, they are putting such a financial burden on our economy that people have become angry about it and the fact that no one in this country seems to want to solve this issue.  Our economy is already so burdened by other issues that the legal citizenry finds themselves struggling just to make ends meet which causes frustration which leads to the racism that you are speaking about because people need something or someone to blame their problems on.  Of course, in this case those people have a point.

Answer 22

Because they get benefits from our gov't that we pay for out of our taxes that we don't get to see.  And half of them work under the table so they don't contribute....oh and they probably don't know how to spell racist either....

Answer 23

because there are so many ****** people in the US already. all the mexicans create traffic and we cant get anywhere. they also take the ****** jobs that the teens are supposed to have like at fast food restaurants. their not annoying or anything its just the population factor

Answer 24

i like most of the mexicans i know. i also like most of the other people i know.

some people have issues with illegal immigration. some people hide their racism with faux concerns about immigration. it's really hard to tell the difference because they keep saying identical things. people who are genuinely concerned about immigration reform need to be careful to avoid racist jargon and paranoid xenophobic speech. otherwise, it's hard for me to take them at their word that they are not actually racists.

we definitely need a reasonable reform of the current immigration system that doesn't involve fear or kneejerk reactionary thinking.

Answer 25

It is not about being racist it's just about doing things the right way.  come here leagally. My grandparents came here learned the language and paid their taxes.  That is all most people are asking for.

Back in the day you knew you had to learn the language to get ahead here in the US now not only are those who come here illeagally not learning the kids that are born here aren't either.
