Losing my Job wrote: I work there, its not good, but its a job, pays my bills, feeds my kids. What noone is saying is why are we being investigated by this USDA thing? I'm mad, mad becasue the owner, talks big, but its his fault were all loseing our jobs, what did the managers do to close us. I even ehard OSHA was here because its not safe. I agree with the other posts, where did the mony go, you should see this palce, whee did the millons go, not here? Probably in the Mayor's church, the city manager's new house and in the city's community services director's new house. That would cover the majority of the million $.

Jose wrote: Nah...you just don't like Mexicans. <quoted text> I was raised with many Mexicans, salt of the earth people, and by the way made better of themselves through education and hard work. Most of the ones I know who are Americans resent just as much, the illegal invasion, because they are just as sick of paying for it, as any other American of race. I don't hate Mexicans, they are good people, I hate having to pay for someone else's illegality.

Jose wrote: You guys really really don't like Mexicans do you?! You really want to get the truth from Me?! Truthfully, I don't like SOME mexicans especially illegals because of the way they treat us here in our own country. This country is being used by them, only to prosper and take whatever they can! I am american born latino, I say latino because I am not a mexican! I was not born in mexico, therefore I am not of mexican orgin. I know, I know, you are going to give me the same bull you mexicans give all the latinos from here, which is "one of your older generation had to come from mexico" not necessarily! my moms parents, paternal grandpa was from zuni here in NM, maternal grandma was from mescalero, mom was born in estancia, my dad was Filipino, but sad to say it embarasses me because of my dark skin some may think I am from mexico. It is hard because of what SOME of you have done to this country. I worked the fields with my dad in the summer for school every year when I was a teenager, yes it is hard work, and I told myself I would never do that again and I would go to school and get an education. So don't tell me about work that we don't want to do, we are capable of doing hard labor if needed, but the majority of us go to school to prevent us from doing that type of work, and of course get better pay. If the farmers paid $16.00 per hour I can bet that many americans would be working the fields and other jobs that "mexicans" work here if they paid more, but because you all come here and take the lower paying jobs only because some employers are after to save the mighty dollar they pay "mexicans" lower than minimum wage. So we are not afraid of working those jobs, we are just more educated and will not settle for less. I dislike that WE have to cater to your needs (press 1 for english, 2 for spanish) you are in our country so learn the language, would we have the same in mexico? why don't the other nationalites have this right? I am speaking of other ethnics. People from other countries come here and start their businesses, they are not at the mercy of welfare and other freebies, they're children even get to go to college, where our children sometimes can't qualify for a loan because their parents earn too much or are middle income. I know because it happened to my children! But here is the clincher! Ask any mexican "do you like it here?" the majority will say "NO, mexico is much prettier and blah, blah, blah I'm just here to work for my family and send money home to them" they have no plans of becoming US citizens because they will retire and go back to mexico and retire with what they have sent home all those years. I could go on and on, but since you asked the question I gave you mine. Take it with a grain of salt.

Jose wrote: Nah...you just don't like Mexicans. <quoted text> What's you're problem!!!! you're probably one of those mexicans that dont like americans! not to mention the latinos from here. The reason I say latino is because the majority of us were not born in mexico and so we are not MEXICANS! and NO I am not in denial! You mexicans hate the latino from here, you look down at us and refuse to answer us in english if you do happen to know the language. It has happened to me many times that I will ask a question in english and you will answer me in your language. It happened at KFC I gave you my order and they looked at me like they did'nt understand me, so I finally asked for the manager and gave him my order in english, while I was doing that a gringo came up and gave his order to the same individual that did'nt seem to understand me and had no problem with it. You want to force me to speak your language (which I can) but you live in the US and yes the US will cater to you, but with the language I will not cater to you, why the schools are telling teachers to learn spanish is beyond me, yes it's ok to start off the student in spanish but progress to english. You are all in for a rude awakening, you are in America, not in Mexico!

To Mona/Crown Jewel: THANK YOU for telling it like it is!
And Jose, with his inane repetition of his "don't like Mexicans" flatulence, is simply trying to push people's buttons and get them to react defensively by basically using the race card once again.
Don't fall for it, people. This ain't about race.

Ok, to all the sticklers for perfect English grammar here. This isn't a college paper. These are people who are expressing free flowing thoughts. You might equte this type of commentary as "thinking and writing out loud." Yes, we should all try to use the best English writing we know how to write. But, we all make mistakes and on these postings of passion as I like to call them, accidents will happen. Advice? You might try to be more understanding and grateful that in this apathetic town at least people are making an attempt to give their opinions.

Great Post Jewel! We are all descended from other countries and regions (and yes, even the so-called Native Americans are from Asia). It is a divider to be so caught up in the Hyphenated-American scam. We (those of us who have earned a right to be here) are ALL AMERICANS. Nothing wrong with paying homage to our lands of origin, but our first and last loyalty is to the United States of America.

Well said Mona! You are a great person and have so much to be proud. I wish that someday when I "grow up" I will have half as much compassion and fortitude as you do. Thank you for your many volunteer hours and contributions to Deming and New Mexico and indeed the entire country! Mona wrote: <quoted text> You really want to get the truth from Me?!
