Why do you think Mexicans have a hard time assimilating and is it a problem or is it okay for them keep their culture alive in USA?

Ever been to Texas and seen how many wave Mexico flags? Is it a problem or totally okay? Your honest opinions?

If you don’t want to be here and part of what this is, then why are you here? If you make it to America legally out of your own will power and hard work, you should be proud of what you have accomplished. You should embrace America and it’s values. Mexicans that want to be Mexicans more than Americans are kind of like people that go to bars and tell everyone they talk to that they don’t drink alcohol… You’re like really? Why are you in a bar then? They awkwardly try to fit in and socialized, but everyone thinks they’re weird. I mean if there are things you actually enjoy doing and places you want to be, then why do you go to places you don’t want to be and try to fit in with people you don’t enjoy doing similar things with… It seems like a huge fucking waste of time.

dont give me mho u racist.

[Asker]

I’m not racist. My girlfriend is black

[D_Bone_Steak]

I'm not racist... I have a black friend. LMFAO.

Why shouldn't they hold on to their culture? It's not hurting anyone.

Totally okay. Flying a flag is not an anti-American statement, it's just a celebration of their culture and heritage.
America is a land of immigrants. We have China towns, little Saigons, Jewish enclaves, parts of the country that are dominated by Irish, German, Swedish, Italians, Sikhs, and on and on. I love all those cultures. They enrich this country.

I'll fly an Irish flag to celebrate my heritage if I want to.

The sight of Israeli and Ukrainian flags pisses me off, but do I have a right to ban them?

People who think American is an ethnicity are retarded.

I can't speak to the problems along the US/Mexico border except to say that problems clearly exist. In western Canada we have several hundred thousand temporary foreign workers who enter every year. They don't pay taxes as far as I understand. Their labor is valuable as far as I understand. Hardworking and industrious is my personal experience. They will not be my countryman as far as I understand! Plus Mexican girls are hot, this is my understanding. The program is not working as advertised.

Wife's family does shit like the Guam stickers on the cars. I'm just like... if it was/is so great then why are you here? Like why exactly would you want to leave a place that is so wonderful? It's cool though... leave it and come here to fly that country's flag. That place must've been way too good for you and you left out of shame. lolz.

They don;t have to assimilate. They have Spanish translators at both the welfare office and the police stations. Probably the emergency rooms too.

[D_Bone_Steak]

Yes... this opinion for the win! I would've picked you as MHO.

@D_Bone_Steak hahahahah

[lightbulb27]

Should have an American flag along with their flag, then ok.

everyone I've met seems assimilated, but I'm not in texas.

[Guy13]

No it should not be allowed and they should be forced to take down the former countryman flag. This USA.

[genericname85]

i mean america doesn't really have a culture other than being a melting pot of cultures. in that context i don't see a problem with everyone celebrating their origins.

[genericname85]

cause except for the native americans, all of you have roots else-where.

[jshm2]

Nope. It's Americans who have a hard time adjusting to the native culture.

[SmokinAces2000]

No it’s not a problem, I thought this was supposed to be a free country but people get upset about Mexican people flying a Mexican flag

[grega239]

Why do they not stay in mexico if tgey so proud of their culture
