Well, i think its okay.  Most Americans are unwilling to take the king of Jobs that illegal Mexian aliens will take.  With that in mind if we stopped allowing them to come over then who would do these jobs.  My point is that Americans take for granted that Mexicans are the backbone of the US labor.  Ultimately we should have more security and restriction for people coming over, but we should still allow them to work there way in, by giving them temporary passports.  A great movie that discusses this very topic is called "A Day Without A Mexican".  Acting isn't the greatest and the movie runs a little long, but they make a some great points.

Difference in cultural backgrounds. Also, Italians had put roots in American society long time ago.... Stereotype of Italian is of some kind of civilized Eurpean.... Stereotype of Mexican is of some kind of uncivilized, uneducated, wild Latino.... People, already, have been through it.... Remember history of African americans... This time it is about Mexicans and "latinos"... It is sad.

Close minded, fat, conceited, and constipated. ..... Then again, I am an American and I don't think I'm any of those things.  (Except for constipated) ...................................   Edited to add:  These are only supposed to be "STEREOTYPES" people  =)

I'm from California too, Orange County. I'm half Mexican. I don't feel comfortable with some white people because of comments I hear and their stereotypes about Mexicans. I look white so they talk to me in ways I know they wouldn't if they knew half my family is Mexican. Now at my work most people know so they don't say these things anymore. Now OC has so many more stereotypes with the tv show. The people here don't all look like the ones in that show. (Where are the Mexicans anyway? None are allowed in Newport after 7 pm. Only gardeners are allowed in the day time).  Another stereotype is that every Latino here is from Mexico and that El Salvador is IN Mexico. My students think it's the same place and so do the adults!!! My students also think that Santa Ana is dirty (if you watch Arrested Development, that's the city where the housekeeper's family lives). There are million dollar residences in Santa Ana though. I could go on and on :-P

I suggest reading Everyday Life and Politics in Nineteenth Century Mexico: Men, Women, and War by Mark Wasserman (2000).  You will find the answers you need in there.  \nAlso, check out this website: http://www.mexconnect.com/mex_/travel/dpalfrey/dpcolonial2.html

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@\n\nLeave Mexico alone.  \n\nIt is man-made division anyway!  How would anyone like to be on the other side of the less fortunate.\n\nI think it is usually the ones who are not getting ahead who are really afraid of others taking their patch.\n\nThe successful and purposeful people (not necessary rich) don't worry this much about migrants coming to steal their bread, rice, pasta, etc. They know if they work hard enough, they'll have their share!\n\n_________________________________________\nIt is like the dog that sits put guarding his bowl for his master to top it up, eats whatever is given, not much of a choice; \n\nThese dogs are similar to people who don't travel (besides some genuine cases of dislike for travels), people who can't afford to travel because they are losers waiting around their little plot ready to jump at newcomers who move around for their existence.  \n\nAt least these migrants (I only support legal ones) are doing something positive about their lives - taking charge of their destiny and being proactive for their existence.  They are those who don't believe that someone else own them their living!)\n\n\nVersus the other dog who leaves his bowl knowing where to find food elsewhere, finds what he likes, having choices!  and then when these winners cast their eyes besides them, they see nothing but the same old loser of a 'bowls-guarding dogs'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loser with mentality that because we are born on this patch, we have the rights to sit down and wait to be served??????\n\nThe quicker these mentality of birth rights are put in the right perspective, this world will have less losers.\n\nPeople who keep barking around their bowls are losers anyway.  So they can keep barking, nothing much will change.  \n\nThe hard workers win, it is nature's law, like it or not!\n\n------------------------------------------\n\n@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

1. The American Woman: DAR, flappers, the sixties, votes for women, etc.\n2. American or Die- imperialistic america: talk about how americans tend to force their culture on peopel, see ourselves as a dominant race. american indians, the meltinhg pot, immigrations acts through the 1910s to the 1930s to today. like the wall being extended on the border to mexico. this could go into immigration and appreciation of cultures and the atrocities commited against american indians. \n3. The Land of Hopes and Dreams: how we are a spoiled people, corrupting our own "land of freedom" this could lead into discussion on how prosperity inevetibly and eventually leads to corruption. eg: inner city schools, LA, New York, politicians.
