Also, there might be a difference in generalizing illegals as Mexicans and being specific about it. I feel a lot of people, I'll admit to doing it once or twice, generalize and imply that illegal aliens are Mexicans but will obviously know its not true when questioned further. People then attack the generalization which was never suppose to be 100% accurate in the first place.....because it's a generalization. Miscommunication issue.
I think when it comes to the actual reporting on the issue people are very careful not to generalize about "Mexicans" given the number of Americans with Mexican or Central American roots. The latest news seems to be focused on the immediate cross border town violence and the implications related to it. Pundits have tried to exploit the issue to tie it into the recent laws in AZ and those other borderstates are considering. That may or may not be a fair issue.
