Uh oh, it looks like Obama hasn’t pandered to their satisfaction.
Good, ungrateful parasites are never happy.

This is what Obama deserves for pandering to them and alienating Americans with his BS.

I wish more latinos would stand up and DEMAND that the US enforce the laws concerning immigration. Unfortunately the latinos who ARE legal citizens apparently don't yet see themselves as AMERICANS, because if they did, they would be lining up on the side of enforcing our laws.

Immigrants have historically come here to become AMERICANS. It's about time for latinos to recognize a serious problem and stand up for what is RIGHT instead of their ethnic connection.

I so agree with you. Poll after poll has shown that the majority of Latino citizens are for amnesty for their illegal amigos and object to the enforcement of our immigration laws. Is that what they call assimilation?

A lot of Latinos do not speak out against illegal immigration because they will be labeled as traitors. It happens more often than you think!

That's because the majority of "hispanics" or "latinos" living in the USA are here illegally and throw in those born to illegals, you have a definite majority.

They've outnumbered the American-hispanic whose family came legally or has lived here for generations.

You're right. The ethnocentric pro-illegals call them "coconuts" or "vendidos" if they don't tow the tribal mentality line.

Unfortunately, I even know of many American-Hispanics whose families have been here for generation that still have that tribal mentality. For an example of that, I will PM you.

Yes, but those kinds of radicals are just looking for one cause or another. I'm not sure that there are more long-time American hispanics that are pro-illegal than non-hispanics. Some are just rabid leftists that hate Americans and the USA no matter what their ethnicity.

I know one Chicano guy who I suspect would have been pro-illegal and open borders for that ethnic tribalism reason until he lost his own job as a social worker because the newcomers didn't like the way he spoke Spanish and he ended up being replaced with someone from Mexico. The irony is that he was hired in the first place because they figured he understood the culture even though he was born and raised here as well as his parents were born and raised here. He was fired because he didn't speak Spanish with native Mexican fluency.
