But the bottom line is, you live in LA or whatever, and I live on the East Coast, and I don't really have any sort of significant Latino immigrant population around here aside from the groundskeepers at my apartment complex. They seem like nice guys, and I speak Spanish, so we get along. If I were in your shoes, I might feel differently.

I'm not so sure we feel differently. I started to say that the majority of Mexicans here ARE nice, but I don't know how many are here. No one does.
That said, I wonder what the response would be if the US government made public a "how-to" guide for law enforcement and bounty hunters to sneak into Mexico and retrieve people who committed crimes in the US.
That seems to be a real "hot button."
