Mexican consul: Immigrants leaving Colo.
Job opportunities declining, perceived anti-immigrant sentiment named causes
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

DENVER — Many Mexicans increasingly feel unwelcome in Colorado because of a perceived anti-immigrant sentiment, and some are looking back home for opportunities as the economy here sours, Denver’s Mexican consul general says.

“What I’ve found is that in our communities, with few exceptions, there’s a sense that the state is not friendly toward immigrants, that they don’t feel welcomed and that they encounter this feeling of, ‘I don’t like you but I need you,â€

Notice that they don't want Mexican citizens to stay home because they care about them or hope to reform Mexico and make it a better country in which for them to live - it is because they need them for the economy!!!

Don't let the door hit you in the backside!

Several of the day laborers in Vista joked about leaving, but many said they had no choice but to stay and weather the economic storm.

"Even if I wanted to leave, I don't have money to go back," said a middle-aged man from Mexico City who did not want to give his name because he is in the country illegally.

Some men said they had nothing to go back to.

"What are we going to do over there?" asked a Guatemalan man, who also did not want his name used. "Plant squash? It's better to live here."
