People of Mexican heritage don’t come up to you and express their digust with what is going on because they sympathize with it. I have had this happen a number of times. I don’t walk up to them and ask what they think of it. They blurt it out from their own hearts.
I am careful not to insult people as a general rule. I wouldn’t bring this issue up in a setting with people of Mexican ancestry in attendence. The question is raised in those setting none the less, and by the people of Mexican ancestry.
We can look at the gay parades in Hollywood. Is anyone operating on the idea that every person who marches is a homosexual? Is everyone operating under the impression that all homosexuals like those parades? LOL, the vast majority of homosexuals are appauled at what takes place in those parades.
Some lamebrains see the marches in support of illegal aliens as the same as marching with Martin Luther King. I don’t. I’m sure you don’t either. I’m sure many hispanics are as disgusted and offended if not more, than we are when they see this.
I’m not convinced we can extrapolate widespread hispanic support for illegal immigration from these marches.
The numbers in some of these marches are large, but the largest have more than hispanics marching. And as large as some of those marches are, there are litterally millions upon million who are not marching in solidarity with what is taking place.
You and I are from 2 different worlds and see things differently. The South Texas valley is approximately 95% Hispanic.
I have Hispanic neighbors, Hispanic friends, legal and possibly illegal. I don’t know if all are legal. However, I do know a few are illegal. Yes, we do talk about it as I have known most of these people for 20 years or more. I have seen some of them get naturallized also. Even those naturalized will sympathize with the illegal. Somehow, they seem to have a guilt trip of becoming a citizen while the illegal is struggling.
We talk politics both local and national as this area is the capital of the Democrat party in Texas. Hillary usually makes a yearly trip down here.
We had a good time when Clinton was in office talking about Monica. I was probably the only Republican they knew. They were all trying to get me to support Clinton so I had to endure listening to all kinds of true confessions. LOL! It was hilarious.
I’ll be quite honest that I don’t know how much support the legal Hispanics give to the illegal. Quite possibly, since this is such a heavily Democrat area, the support is more widespread and outspoken.
They are not marching against them either. There is a tacit acceptance of illegals, as long they are hispanic, by the the legal hispanics in this country. To deny that is folly. There are some small groups that are speaking out against illegals from south of the border but they are drowned out. It's much like the Muslims here in the U.S. who won't speak out against radical Muslims around the world or against those here.
