F Luis Feb 2 1994 issue that hat in my opinio is a disgrace to her country and most immigrants After reading these letters I ask myself if these people have hav forgotten their I. I roots Have they forgotten where they came from Unless you are a Native American all allour allour allour our families at on one time tim or another came from different parts of the world Our anc ancestors ancestors ances ances- s- s tors migrated to the United States in s search arch of a better life and living on welfare is not part of the American Dream Many white Arn Americans ricans complain about Mexicans who illegally enter the United States fro from l the south but no one even n mentions mentions men men- n- n all the Canadians who illegally enter from the north In my opinion no one ever says anything about bout illegal Canadians immigrants immigrants immigrants im im- im- im migrants bec because use they are white and speak English When a Mexican Mexican who is brown blown brown in skin color and speaks Spanish comes to the US U.S. e everyone who is racist gets ups upset t just because they are different Too often immigrants immigrants immigrants im- im migrants are wrongfully stereotyped as people who come to the US U.S. to take and steal teal wh what t you have In every race you will find that there are a afew afew afew few that make their people look bad Of the Hispanics in Utah there is a very small percentage that are free loaders but the majority of Hispanics are hard working people that are not afraid of hear labor Immigrants Immigrants Immigrants Im Im- Im- Im migrants usually work the undesirable Jo jobs s. s that many whites do not want In conclusion I believe that everyone should have a chance to o follow their dreams Our forefathers came to this country to better their lives and to get a piece of th the pie Dont Don't be greedy and let the next person get their piece too I believe Mexican immigrants do have a aright aright right to be here After all the land we are standing on right now was settled by the Native Native Native Na Na- tive Americans and was a part rt of the Mexican Republic way before any Americans settles here Remember move onward into the future but dont don't forget your past Juan Hernandez Jr Jrr electricity |
