Yeah sure USA gots sights, but how many really?, most of them are man made, xcept the parks and stuff.


Um, you may want to rethink how you worded that...

Importing goods has nothing to do with immigration. Thats just standard trading. Every country does it.

And Japan is the king of technology. I don\'t think many care much about the mountains and frees when they can play Dance Dance Revolution on a huge screen outdoors. ;)

Are you from Mexico? Just wondering.

Picking strawberries? C\'mon, thats a kind of stereotyping, isn\'t it?

Fastfood exists everywhere, not just USA.

There are plenty of restruants with old fashioned food. I\'m not quite sure what your point is with that statement.
The fire still burns...

Face it, some people think immigrants are just a plague to the USA, im not saying yall, but immigrants made this country what it is, without immigrants this country woulnt be as well known and rich. Sure most immigrant mexicans just come here to work in the fields and stuff, but its those people that let us enjoy the strawberries we eat, the all the fruit vegetables, or tell me how many people would get up their butts to pick their own fruit???


i know that not all americans eat at mcdonalds or burger king, but cmon when was the last time you saw a restuarant that said "Old classic american food", never, or at least i havent.



Meh, i didn\'t mean to say it literally. Sure, other country\'s import to us, but are you forgetting that we export?

Well, i can name two real big natural sights the US has. The Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. We have some of the nicest beaches, and a number of caves and whatnot to take a tour of.

Immigrants are helpful to the US, i never denied that.

What exactly is "Old Classic American Food" in your mind?

DAMN you people are smart.....see last year i had to do a report on immigrants and there were some bastard racist in my class and they just completely dissed immigrants, especially mexicans, i still dont know how the teacher allowed that. but most of the stuff i posted is what i said in class, and being racist means not being very smart, they were speechless and completely out of it.


I was born in Dallas TX, of course my parents are mexican so that makes me mexicans, we moved to mexico around when i was 1 year old and lived there till i was about 9. then we came back here. so espanol was my first language.


and what is it with people disliking people that dont know english??? its not a law to learn english, in fact, judging from what some guy on tv said, as you can tell there are a WHOLE lot of mexicans in this country, believe it or not spanish is spreading around, so why not bother learning spanish?? a live in a majorly immigrant neighnorhood and i see no reason why people dont like em. why dont people like it luckee?
Don\'t try to confuse me with what you call  facts, my mind is already made up.

It is quite hard to deal with ppl when they do not know english in a country where it is the spoken language. If one was to go to mexico, then they should learn spanish,simple as that.

Well, I must say, I don\'t like some Mexicans that don\'t speak English. It\'s not the fact that they don\'t speak english, it\'s the fact that they think they\'re cool because they can say **** about you and you can\'t understand it. Besides "those" select few, I have no problem with Mexicans. But still, i wish they would learn to speak English, as it is the US\'s language of choice.

I\'ve seen people who have been in the states for years and years and never bothered to learn the language.  I have no patience for these people.  I\'m sure they have no problem cashing government checks so they can send them home to their families in their poverty stricken countries.  

I didn\'t see the original strawberry picking comment, but I live right outside Plant City, Florida where many strawberries come from and I have never met a non-mexican strawberry picker.  Not a racist comment at all, just an observation.

The reason America is so great is the immigrants over the years.  I\'m not dissing immigrants at all.  I\'m just glad other countries go through the same immigration problems as we have.

He\'s against diversity caused by immigration, because it leads to hate between different ethnic groups.

That\'s what I got out of his ramblings anyway.

Something about Chinese hating Japanese...or vice versa. And South Koreans don\'t hate anyone. That first sentence threw it all out of place. Or maybe it was the whole thing...



Edit- I hate you shock.

Look, the people who have immgranted over recently, are "grouping" if you will in schools.  They start trouble with many other ethnic groups and individuals.  It is as if they have their own gang within the school.


EDIT:  Fayded, i was just being a little off the wall there.  Keep in mind i just had surgery and on heavy pain killers  :bounce:

That is true. Well atleast at my school it is. There\'s one big group of Mexicans at my school. They don\'t care about school, they mouth off to anyone, start fights, come to school smelling like weed. They basically think they\'re above everyone else....and they speak little English so that bugs me even more.


I\'m not saying all Mexicans are like this, its just i can\'t stand this type.


Yeah, it\'s all good S_M i was just messin around anyway by making fun of you.

I dont know about the speaking english part lol, it doesnt bother me, but you made a good point about how they act at school.  School is a place to learn.  Some of these people come in and basically complain until it is time to leave.  I ask, why go then?
