I don't understand the mentality of coming here just to convert area after area into the same thing that they left.

Yes, there are areas (predominantly along the East Coast) like your "Little Italy's" and "Chinatown's" that speak predominantly Italian, or Portugese, or Chinese, etc. These are small communities in specific area, not spread out all across the country like an infestation. Most all of the immigrants who came to the United States in the early 1900's or earlier learned to speak English and never spoke their native tongues outside of their homes. These people wanted to adapt to their new host nation. They also (almost all) also legally migrated to this country. As a whole, these individuals wanted to not take from this country, but give something back as a way of saying 'thank you" for the privledge of being here. These philosophies are not being brought here from the bulk of those coming to the U.S. from Mexico. I'm tired of the attitude of "If you don't like it tough! What are you going to do about it? Nothing; I'm here and you can't so a thing about it."

Once again, my $.02!

Its because they stick to their roots and we took most of this land from them in the Mexican American war around 1848. They are still spread about here due to that...why they keep coming over I have no idea other than our money is worth way more than theirs, some come over seasonally, work for the summer etc..then go back and live off it and support their family the rest of the year.

why is there cinco de mayo....shouldn't happen here. why does the mexican flag get waved around on that day...why does it at time get hung above the american flag at schools (predominantly down south like socal) (yes just like the email we have all seen)
Why did the mexican flag get hung above the american flag in nevada and then a US veteran take it down and take it. (sure you have seen that one too)

they have no respect for us. they come here fuck us for the money, don't pay the taxes and send the money back.
Now I have to pay for uninsured motor vehicle insurance...guess the fuck why....you guessed it! the fucking illegals who don't carry insurance and the insurance companies were tired of paying for it, so they charge it to those who actually pay....WTF!!!!!

this shit needs to get fixed. I don't know what the fuck the politicians are doing but this is something the libfucks and repuds need to work on.
