So you see why your bitching about invading Mexicans is so adorable. Hell, it's the Canadians who freak me out You think they're Americans, but they aren't.
It doesn't matter the nationality of Illegals, merh. It matters the legality of their presence.
I'm just as against Canadians as I am Mexicans or the Irish or Russians or Thais, etc etc etc
You get to deal with all the negatives of high density populations and yet have no problems with ever more people being brought in? Weird.
I am doing everything I can to be away from other people as much as possible. That's a fundamental difference in how we view humanity.
We watched game shows a lot as kids. We're in America so one assumes the hosts are Americans. I was seriously confused when I learned Monty Hall was Canadian. Michael J Fox. Ryan Reynolds. Sneaky types... I spent 10 or 11 yrs growing up in San Bernardino. Then we moved to Utah to the 5th largest city group (Provo-Orem) & the kids teased me for being a city slicker 1970 Orem 25,729 They don't even list a population for Highland before 1970 - 12,669 So why should I care there are 1.4 million people in San Diego? |

But my theory that you're a racist just got a huge bump!
And you wonder why I can't stand most white people?
But you like them better than the people with darker skin and that what really counts. |

Michael J Fox.

Wanna bet on whether or not those 3 were here illegally or not?  When I was a kid, the Larson Canning Company had built bunkhouses to give all of the Guest Workers a place to stay during harvest/canning season. Then they went back home. Nobody had a problem with that arrangement......it was Win-Win for everyone involved.
Kids will tease you no matter what. It's what kids do. Tall/Short. Skinny/Fat. etc etc etc
It's just a preference for population density. I want to be away from other people as much as possible. You seem to prefer living amongst tons of others. Just a difference in taste......sorta like politics.

Where did you ever get that idea?
When I've stereotyped the general ugliness of redheads?
When I've raged against the many, many instances of welfare abuse that I've seen over my lifetime?
When I've oft repeated that memorable line from Blazing Saddles about the Irish?

I am very good at ignoring people. Like loud noises. My husband was the house needed to be totally silent for him to sleep. My kid also. I need a radio or something on I don't like crowds, but I can deal for stuff like comic-con if necessary The bunkhouse probably cut down on raids |

I'm not good at ignoring people. And the handful of people that create problems get my dander up. 
I usually fall asleep with the TV on.......and loud noises may wake me, but as soon as I mentally assess the threat, I can go right back to sleep.
There was no need for raids back then. As I said, they were welcome guests......and workers.
