i see no other latinos commenting on here. wow... well, it is not just that you came illegally and that was not just 400 years ago manifest destiny continued throughout the 1850's. just as latinos have been coming from latino america up to what is now the US for centuries. i think it is that we are being told that our culture is worth less. why can't we run our businesses in spanish if we want, we pay the commercial taxes, etc...
It's a very difficult issue & I have Hispanic friends, but they are all proud Americans who actually support tougher immigration laws, because their parents came here legally, waiting a very long time to be able to do so! Why are we evil for wanting to have some control over the chaos?
I'm a mix of Irish, English, German, Dutch, Swiss, plus a little Blackfoot Indian as well as East Indian. When the radicals on the "you Anglos go back to Europe" speak out, where do I go, as a tiny fraction of my ancestry were here from the beginning, and the rest are from all over! Also, when will places like Mexico have half as lenient immigration policies as we do?
hey steve- you may very well be right, in that i am emplying a cliche in my video. i was only trying to point out how incitfull Tommy Tancredo's original qestion was by being all the more outragous.
that said, those cliche's i mention, and you point out are, well, true.
