The major decline in the general opinion of the United States in Mexico was due, in part, to the bad feelings caused by the Arizona migration law.

What about the bad feeling we have about the rancher that was murdered by Mexican drug cartel?

The Crips and the Bloods also don’t have a good impression of the LAPD.

Mexico is a virtual toilet... who cares..
And a filthy toilet at that...

Little wonder most want to leave..
The only wonder is coming here they revere the motherland as
other than a frigging whore.. and corrupt wasteland..
and stain our soil with their tribal 3rd world ways..

What does a Mexican have to be proud of?.............
NOTHING......

Aw, too bad! Stop coming across our borders with your drug gangs and diseases and apply for citizenship through the right channels. Is it too hard for a Mexican to go to the Immigration people and apply? What are the arguments on this? I’ve heard NOTHING about how they should be going about achieving citizenship, other than pouring across our borders and having children born in the United States so then they can stay. I understand that Mexico has become like a third-world country with its drug violence and gangs and hapless government, and people are trying to get their families out of there. If I lived there, I would be trying to get out, too, for the sake of my family.

...substantially lowers the opinion that Mexicans have of the United States, its people and its president...

Obama can't even get the Mexicans to love him anymore...though we could have told you all that before the election of this embarrasment of a leader...

So, you also no longer like us because we decided to finally do something?

Feh...

Tough!

This is just a start..... I want the Mexicans to hate us so bad they don’t come here. And the ones we have leave. The illegals at least and the legal ones who are welfare bums

Well, this is probably due to the 8% difference already making it to the US and the other 49% still want to get here.

The approval of the migratory law in Arizona substantially lowers the opinion that Mexicans have of the United States, its people and its president according to a poll taken on Thursday.

OK, and the point is what, exactly?

We need to deport or imprison ALL illegal aliens, including their anchor babies, seal/secure the border and SHOOT anyone who tries to re-enter illegally.

That poll's true meaning can only be understood if you also note another Zogby poll of Mexican citizens (LINK):

Do you agree or disagree that the territory of the U.S. Southwest rightfully belongs to Mexico?
Agree: 58 percent
Disagree: 28 percent <= *
Not sure: 14 percent

Do you agree or disagree that Mexicans should have the right to enter the United States without U.S. permission?
Agree: 57 percent
Disagree: 35 percent <= *
Not sure: 7 percent

*This means only 1/3 of Mexicans do NOT believe that the Mexican government should rule the U.S. Southwest and that Mexican should NOT enter as they please.

Any US law that favors respect for American laws and sovereignty will not be viewed positively by Mexicans.

Now you can ask relevant question: Why should loyal Americans seek the favor of a people (Mexicans) who openly - by their own admission - challenge our laws and sovereignty?

It would be lovely if someone cared what Americans think of Mexico's laws, ability to protect and serve its people, its economic opportunities for all Mexicans and its religious freedoms. Don't think any of us will be getting a call on that one. P-ew doesn't care what we think of our border states starting to resemble 3rd world hovels and centers of violence and chaos. Nope. Not interested.

If all those coming to America were like the Hispanics I know, I wouldn't have a problem. Therein lies the rub.

Excellent.

Take what you want.
Get away with anything you want.

Every state should pass an AB/SB1070. We don't want illegal aliens on the U.S. side of the border...from any country. There is an established process to come here. Follow it or stay the hell away.

I would guess that the illegal alien unemployment problem would be the reason for the change.

The amount of money that Mexicans working in the US sent back home dropped 3.6% in 2008. It fell 8.7 percent over the first four months of 2009 compared to 2008.

I don’t know what the more recent stats are.
