You don't consider Hispanic advocacy groups protesting an Hispanic scholarship organization, as infighting? I do. It’s tantamount to the NAACP protesting the United Negro College Fund.
Its a disagreement.
The Scholarship organziation doesnt want the scholarship to apply to illegals, and those advocay groups disagree.
People have different opinions.
To call this 'infighting' is suggesting that all of us Hispanics are one big force, citizens, legals, illegals, in some kind of quest for Hispanic dominance, lol.
People are going to disagree over things. It happens.
Americans have immigrants from all over the world, and many illegals...mostly Mexican because Mexico is adjacent to the United States making it very easy to cross illegally.
Trust me, if China was next to us, we'd have a lot more Chinese in this country.
If Italy was right next to us, we'd have a lot more Italian illegals.
Not to mention all the drug smuggling problems, but thats a different story.
Immigrating illegally across a single man-made line is one thing.....what does it say about all the countries of the people who immigrate here illegally from half-way across the world, across vast oceans?
It says a lot about The United States. A lot of people want to be here..at least for now, its still considered a place with a lot of opportunity, and draws people from all over the world.
It doesnt make Mexico a pos, like so many of you see it.
Points all well taken.
Especially with the imploding economy; the USA needs to get serious (which is occuring as we speak) with both the illegals here and those US citizen scoundrels who knowingly hire same.
Do you actually believe they will be discussing methods for us to combat illegal immigration? If anything, they will discuss strategies for amnesty.
If the situation in Mexico warrants deploying our troops to our border, so be it. I'm sick of this invasion, and we don't need to compromise with Mexico.
ITA. It's time for Mexico to grow up and deal with the burdens they breed.

A lot of Mexico is beautiful and I wouldn't have any problem if we worked out a deal to annex baja I'd be the first to East Cape.
I do wonder how many would come here if all the freebies were cut off.

I'd like to keep Baja in Mexico, so it stays as cheap as it is, lol. Move it to the United States, and most of that beach will become private, and eaten up by real estate(which is already happening to an extent).

The scholarship organization wants to remain legitimate. They are operating within the law. Kudos to them! Illegal alien DREAMies feel they are entitled to everything legal citizens receive, so I’m not surprised they are demanding scholarships.
The entire Hispanic 'community' is not required for infighting to exist. However, you are free to consider it a mere disagreement. I have no idea how you arrived at your dominance remark. Then again, that’s par for the course.

They are different groups with different goals. Infighting would require for them to be in the same group.

They are both "Hispanic" organizations. They are both ‘supposedly’ working for the betterment of the "Hispanic" community. If the NAACP, Jesse Jackson and his sidekick Al Sharpton were openly opposing policies of the United Negro College Fund, I dare say, it would be considered infighting. They supposedly represent the same "group" of people. However, I have no desire to debate the definition of infighting.
