Oh, quite a bit has changed. When the mass immigration was going on in the early twentieth century those people came here, LEGALLY, were checked in at Ellis Island or whatever port of entry they came into, and then went off and earned their living. They were not given welfare, food stamps, social security, free schooling, or any other public benefit, and those that came from countries where English wasn't the native language were expected to learn it. They also became Americans. While they still may have retained their native culture among their families or local neighborhoods, when they left their homes they were Americans, first, and their native background, second.
That's not the way the Mexicans are doing it. They are invading this nation by the millions, ILLEGALLY. They are sneaking over the border. Many of them refuse to learn English. They have their kids here and then collect social services as a result, while still being illegal themselves and paying no tax dollars to fund it. They go to our hospitals and let the taxpayers foot the bill. They don't want to be Americans. They just want to bring Mexico here. It's quite a different scenario these days with this group.
Of course, you clearly have no problem with this as we've seen, and that makes you just as bad as them. But, keep it up. Keep cheering them on. Keep pushing them to march in the streets by the thousands holding up a Mexican flag for the whole nation to see. They are hurting themselves by doing that because those images on TV are enraging Americans all across this country.
