Do you feel that LEGAL US citizens are being discriminated against?

Why is it when LEGAL US citizens want to defend their language, culture, customs, economy, environment, jobs, country, etc.---we are called "racists". However, when any other group expresses the same feelings/concerns-- and does the same thing--, it is called "cultural pride".

Answer:
We are discriminated against all the time. What about the illegal alien college students that get in-state/free tuition when citizens don't there are soldiers returning from Iraq and don't get the in-state tuition but someone that breaks the law does - is that fair?

If I complain that the illegal aliens are criminals, which they are because they are breaking the law, I am called a racist. I don't care if they are from Mexico, England, Canada or Egypt. If they are here ILLEGALLY they are not suppose to be here.

I'm sick of the protests and the demands for a memoritorian against deportations. They don't have rights because they aren't citizens. GO HOME ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS.
So what? WHo cares what you are called. Defend it from whom? Let them have their "PRIDE" if that is all they can muster up, let them. Sort of like letting children have the last word, what is lost?
OMG YES!!! TOTALLY!! Let 'em call legal citizens racist. I'll defend the LEGAL US way of life till I die and they can stick it in their noses.
very true...and what i don't get is why legal citizens are required to pay taxes even if they live abroad but illegals can live here free, enjoy our heathcare, educational, public services and social security but legal citizens are told there will probably not be any social security available when our generation gets ready to retire. sounds like bias and discrimination to me.
No. US citizens are called racists because they hate Mexicans. Mexicans aren't racist because the US is not a race.
Not really.
When you come to the US, you have to defend both your home country and the US at the same time. Seeing as how you are living here, why would you choose the former? If you can't defend this country, why are you still here?
At the same time you can keep all your culture from your home country if you want. But you are expected to assimilate. I can't move to France and say, "America is better!"
Yes, we are being discriminated against. Illegals Suck Period. They are taxing our economy at an alarming rate. Deportation is the only solution beside the fence
Yes, when I or the public has to vote on a ballot issue as we have had to in Michigan in 2006 for equal rights.... You bet!
It's time for all citizens to exercise their second amendment rights. It is something that illegals cannot enjoy.... thank God.
I think brainwashed and controlled fit better
Yeah I have been discriminated against because of my past mistakes.
More and more U.S. citizens (both born here and LEGALLY immigrated citizens) are feeling the exact way you do. The momentum is building within the citizenry of the U.S. .. people are mad and will make sure amnesty NEVER happens. Take steps to report any and all businesses that hire illegal aliens. Take steps to report any and all illegal aliens you see taking an American's job. They're days are numbered.
minorities mostly. but you are wrong.
Last time I checked every white rights group - Aryan nation KKK etc. is allowed to exist and protest. How are they being discriminated against. You have no facts figures or quotes. This is just your uneducated invalid opinion.
illegal immigrant = in a country without legal permission.
Get a clue from the definition - no race or national origin matters just the fact it is against the law.

I love everyone that screams that by wanting illegals out of the US , I have to hate Mexicans or be a racist.
Ignore the facts that with an open ,flowing border anyone from anywhere can be entering for any illegal reason they can dream up.
i agree 100% with you. we are very much discriminated agents. we americans need to take are country back from the illegals.
ive been discriminated, but not cuz im legal.
No 'feel' about it. They absolutely are.
You know what, I agree with your statement!!! it is very true and happens all the time out there!!! I'm not racist but we need to rid the nation of ANY illegal immigrants!!!
www.wehategringos.com...look it up. They hate us whites. Yes is my answer!!!
becuase bush created a monster!Your right though it's not like we go over to mexico and take over their citys and school and tell them they have to learn english because we now live in their country.I hate it in school they want us to learn spanish and i said **** that!
i think we are being exterminated and we need to organize and fight back
The establishment is on your side. You're just looking to make petty issues of things that barely affect you! We celebrate all aspects of your culture, learn your language, your history. Now, if you feel threatened because the laws aren't being followed, THAT is a different issue.
Who cares what you are called? There is no legal discrimination against citizens of the USA in the USA. And to claim there is, is bizarre as well as being misinformed.
The word Illegal implies a crime. If you smoke weed, this is illegal. Technically, you are an illegal if you are drinking underage, or driving under the influence.

The people coming into America are undocumented. This is different from being illegal. They are working class, or underpriveleged human beings, without documents.

US citizens are of mixed heritage, all of us, and this is a country that was built on many waves of immigration.The first wave of immigrants were europeans, who eventually wiped out native americans.They forced migration of Africans, and used just about any one for economic gains, while claiming that all people were created equal.

US citizens should take both pride and shame in the history of this country, and defend a vision of a less hypocritical, more welcoming society.

Face it, you eat pizza, chineese food, and sushi at times. You've walked down china town, or Little Italy, or some enclave. This is an immigrant country. The true Natives Americans can confirm that.
I do also agree with what someone else has posted on here, now you are free (legal citizen) to defend what you want, but rest assured that you wanted to come to this country for a reason right? Why is that? Was it because of the Freedom? For the Jobs? So then to come to this country, and valve this country is what happens when you have a mass of people that take pride in this country. You can love your culture and everything about it, but don't turn you cheek on American, she will bite back. Not sure why its considered "Racist" there is a fine line from Lady Liberty.
Everyday, I hear this speech. Every day that we try and speak our minds that we are consider to be a racist.. WE are simply defending our rights (what is left), Defending our nation. Knowing what is right, and we are not sitting back letting this country going down.
Why should someone from another country have a better paying job then I do? Why cuz we can not discriminate against them. But it is OK for another blue collar worker here in Michigan to be laid-off
yes,,,, i feel that LEGAL citizens ( yes I'm not confused on the word,,lol,,,) are being discriminated against whether u are white,black,or Hispanic CITIZENS... what i have strong opinions on is the fact that because ever one is sick of illegals in this country that LEGAL deserving Hispanics in this country are discriminated against the most.... not to say that white and black people aren't this is just my opinion, u don't have to agree,,,, but be for real, LEGAL Mexicans get more negativity simply because they are Mexican,,, you see a group of Mexicans at the grocery store and u automatically say "oh there illegal" in my opinion its the legal Mexicans ans Muslims who are discriminated against the most..... and id like to tell you that i agree with you on most of what you have to say, but then i have different views on some,, but over all i really respect your answers and questions....
