When I was a Border Patrol agent, the Hispanic agents disliked illegals more than the gringo agents. They were completely against wetbacks as they were called then.

That's an old term from the 50s and maybe older.

It is an old term for good reason and that's what we still called them circa 1990 Ft. Hancock TX. The term illegal alien was creeping in then but they were still wetbacks. Apparently the woke globohomo marxist term is now undocumented migrants

They certainly don't speak for me as a Latina. They need to sit down and STFU. Thank you for speaking up!

I have noticed for years that the Latino families that have settled in the US for two, three, or more generations, fit right in with eveybody else. They work, vote, eat in restaurants, go to ball games just like everybody else, too. These Latino families do not like all the riff raff coming over the border from Mexico into Texas every day. They can be from any country south of the border and can be criminals that were let out of prisons such as sex offenders and murderers, kidnappers let into the US border without proper identification or no identificcation. After Pres. Trump is re-elected on January 20, he will make it a priority to deport anybody without proper identification, drug cartel perrsonnell, smugglers

Same experience in NC. And new migrants who enter legally and eager to contribute & be part of the American community fit right in. Families demonstrating solid values (such as not breaking laws) and natural entrepreneurs always appreciate opportunities in America and add value, that is the win-win-win-win of legal immigration. The rest can sneak back out now or face consequences 21 January and after.
