Other Countries Dont Have The Immigration Stigma/Issues That Mexico Has - WHY?

Question

Is it because Mexico is closest & our borders are so shoddy? Granted, plenty of Mexicans have crossed illegally, but I'm sure Asians, Arabs, Cubans, Europeans, have too.

OR is it because people from the other countries tend to have money to start AND finish their citizenship process? All of the rallies have 99% Mexican participants - but what about everybody else? Shouldnt we be striving for an immigration reform that benefits ALL persons from ANY country?

Answer 1

Because mexicans make up the bulk of new inmigrants.

Answer 2

You sre right to bring upthe fact that there are MANY illegal immigrants from other countries.  These are people who came to the U.S. under the visa waiver program or on a tourist visa...and just never left...and they came with that PURPOSE...so have committed visa fraud.  Mexicans simply CANNOT get a tourist or temporary work visa in the U.S....so enter illegally and get the most attention.  But the crime is the same, no matter what the country of origin is.

Answer 3

Try to and look away from the States, see how other countries deal with that similar problem..

See the problem of France and all the illegal aliens they have from Africa and the middle east,

See how Spanish deal with Africans, South americans, and people from Morocco.

Italians too.

In Mexico , this will sound funny but its true,  we use to deal with Guatemalians in pretty much the same way that you deal with my fellow mexican alliens even worse. But two days a go our president made a decret and now all the Guatemalians that want to work in coffee and sugar cane plantation in the Southern Mexican States are allow to work.

The reason....no enough Mexicans wanted to work on those, so Guatemalians are now welcome.

Answer 4

Yeah we should, we have tried.

But when you tried telling it to the people who run the Government, they think it doesn't benefit them so they ignore.
