text: who would want to come to a country, where they are hated? why would all this differant races want to come to american if they will be hated, and if a visa is all they need to get accepted, what is the big deal? because they will not be hated. not hated enough to make a difference in the better life they will make here. not hated enough to make a monetary difference in the income increase they will probably receive. ever heard the saying "sticks and stones will break my bones but words can never hurt me!"  actually i'm not sure where you heard that immigrants are hated. i find that strange, as a new yorker.  perhaps if i lived in texas i would feel the effects of immigrants from mexico, but i doubt it. even so, just cause americans seem intolerant with their loud words and "hatred", they are pretty well behaved when it comes to violence.  i bet a chinese,mexican or african immigrant would have less of a chance of being injured in the united states by far, than in their home country. if they are white immigrants, they definitly will not have problems, except for maybe a couple of jokes at a bar.  americans may be obnoxious and opiniated regarding immigration, but i think most people, like 99.9% of "haters" will not act on it. the others who do, would probably hurt anyone, regardless of race.  also getting a visa is a big deal, from what i hear. it's very difficult and time consuming.
