Why are mexicans persecuted in america?:
Mexicans are not being persecuted in America. Even those that are here illegaly. Although there seems to be more public sentiment against illegals here of late. I would blame that on the media or the politicians makeing an issue of it more than anything else. ive lived in Texas all my life the illegal alien thing is nothing new.there were plenty illegals here for more more than thirty years and never heard one complaint until the last few weeks when the media started blasting it out the airways. Unfortuneately Ive noticed that the media seems to have a large affect on the popular opinion here. Why they have chosen this time to make it a major issue is beyond anything i can understand.
