Which is why legal immigrants and Americans of Mexican descent are being harassed, reported, detained, and sometimes even deported despite having the necessary documentation - but before the documentation can be processed.
Sorry, no, it's Mexicans you guys hate, not just the illegal immigrants. As it is, you guys ignore illegal immigrants from Asia and Europe.

Also, Bowser, I feel like everything you're saying can be summed up as "don't be a jerk"
Don't shun people of other races. Don't kick them out of schools because of their race. Don't ruin someone's business because of their race. etc., etc.
But if a white guy puts his hair in dreads and isn't being a jerk to anyone, there's nothing wrong with that. By the same token, there's nothing wrong with any other kind of cultural appropriation (meaning, using ideas/fashion/food/whatever that originated from another race). The end goal should be a race-blind society where it doesn't matter who's cooking the tacos.
It sounds obvious, not being a jerk, but sadly it isn't, and there are some things that are done out of ignorance instead of malice that are still insulting or hurtful.
There's cultural appropriation, and then there's cultural participation. Participation is much better than appropriation. There's also osmosis and merging and ideas being exchanged and stuff, and it's just honestly good when it happens right. That's what I want to see.
I don't hate Mexicans. I don't like anyone breaking the law however. And that is why illegals need to go home. Of all types and races.
