probably two-thirds of those are from mexico, and they would be mexican citizens, but there are mexican citizens here who are legally and trying to become americans so i would put it at about 12 million. >> 12 million? >> yes. >> i would put it at about 8 and 10. how's that? >> i think that's a little short. >> i said i didn't know. >> i think i'm a little short because we have 40 million immigrants in the country but many become citizens. >> do you want to speak to this? >> talking about the drug trafficking. this drug war really got started ironically when president calderon cracked down on drugs. >> he is currently -- >> he is the past president. >> well, what is it now, nieto is taking over? >> he is coming in. >> right. >> december. >> different party. >> calderon is still in there for one more month. >> december. >> right. >> but the irony of it is that by taking out some of the gangs, they just opened up turf for other gangs to fight over, and it has just moved from city to city over these, what, around 2005. and you've got a complete instability at a time when mexico is having e

no more mexicans. who did not have a problem being objective with a mexican. [inaudible]. i should try to do something about this he thought this is not good. may be i should try, may be i should make an effort. may be i should drive to the mission and spend quality time with my own people. i'm sure it would be simple. he doesn't have to be so hard. i am sure anyone who looks at me and talks to me will believe i'm another south of the border specimen and never figure out i happen to be a self hating mexican. the self hating something made him think of the self hating jew. he thought of george constanza and woody allen. he thought of philip and alexander's father yelling and screaming telling his son he was the son of the family shames. you don't be deserved to be called a view. you, alexander are being embarrassed by the surface of the mirror. you don't deserve to be a mexican. nor the fact that mexicans are the hardest working people and came here to work and give their children a better future. there is no mexican who tried to justify with arguments like a fantasy to cel

-mexican borderland. narrator: regions, relative location and scale help us gain a spatial perspective on places like el paso, texas, and ciudad juarez, mexico. the border between the two countries marks the limits of what geographers call "formal regions"-- places with very clear lines. but as you cross the bridge into texas, you see that the cultural lines are not nearly as sharp. tanny berg owns some retail real estate on el paso street and plays an active role in the life of the community. berg: this street, particularly, has always been a wonderful threshold, a transition between america and mexico. those of us who are in business on the street, it has always been our intentions to improve the relationships between the united states and mexico-- and, more particularly, between el paso and juarez-- because obviously that interrelationship affords us the opportunity of attracting more customers into our market. narrator: but the flow of culture is two-way. berg has shopped at this same mexican bakery s

they banned mexicans basically. they got rid of mexican-american studies. they put all of the books that they took away from the students, they boxed them and put them away. the catch-22 seems to be that anybody who's not from that ethnic studies world could teach it but that there would be disciplinary action as i understand it if anyone complains about those being taught. so in essence they've been, what i call a soft-banning. they're out of the picture. and -- you know, here's the situation, it's not about books. it's about ethnicity. it's about the power in phoenix -- what i call the "arpaiocracy." >> joe arpaio. >> joe arpaio. and governor brewer and that whole crowd i think. if the tucson school district does not comply with what the big boys, the big bullies tell them, you know, they're going to lose $15 million in funding. then what happens? so everybody's between a rock and a hard place. >> what effect has this had on the kids, on the students? >> it's heartbreaking. they cry, you know, they're -- when you come into something like ethnic studies an

i am here to lend my support to the mexican museum and power. i have been down in yerba buena for over 20 years, and we have long waited this project. many of us see millennium as coming in to save the day. we are all very confident in millenium to work with the community, as they have in the last 10 or 15 years they have been down here. also, i would like to point out that it has been my observation that the success of yerba buena has been the true mix of arts, cultural, retail, other businesses, and residential. these are the stakeholders' that have helped make yerba buena a success. president fong: thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is linda lou cerro -- lucero. i am the president of the arts festival in the yerba buena gardens. i fully support this project. it is one of san francisco's jewels, but yerba buena will not be complete without the long- awaited mexican museum. i have full confidence that the issues raised in the eir can be worked out by the mexican museum and the millennium partnership, to everyone's satisfaction

m stands for mexican mafia. it just shows their loyalty. that's who they're loyal to. at the drop of a dime, any time a certain request is done, they go ahead and handle what they're asked to do or what they're told to do. >> something like this is going to help us validate those inmates we take them off the active gp facilities, put them over in the shu where there's a more controlled setting for them. which protects staff and inmates. >> these are the heavy duty inmates that we want to get off the yard, because they're heavily involved in that criminal activity. >> in addition to the prison gangs, the officers in corcoran also have street gangs to deal with, the most violent and unpredictable of all, the bulldogs. >> the bulldog street gang originated in fresno, that group of hispanic population not being from southern california, not being from northern california, they affiliated or they joined together with the intent of not being governed by any other prison gang. >> bulldogs they're not as organized as your other gangs. they don't have the leadership in their or

when guns showed up at a mexican crime scene - rather than concern - u-s attorney denis burke wrote "wow- frickn' a. those are already across the border?"but most embarrassing - when atf learned its guns were used to kill the brother of a mexican state attorney general - an atf supervisor wanted to bury the information, saying "my thought, don't release it" grassley says: "if there isn't enough concern regarding a border patrol government agent being murdered than you can see there is less concern of the murders going on south of the border.

but the most notorious gang in the california prison system is called the mexican mafia. >> the mexican mafia is known as m.a., la m.a. they will be recognized by the eme, which is the spanish letter m. >> the mexican mafia was born in california prisons in the mid 1950s. its members, who swear allegiance for life, are mostly mexican-americans from southern california. among gangs, the mexican mafia is considered the most disciplined and powerful within the california prison system. >> if you are an active gang member or an active hispanic within the group, you are expected to be up at 6:00 in the morning when they go to the exercise yard together. they do exercises together in cadence. that's one of the rules. you have to. you don't have a choice. you have to participate. what they're told to do is expect to have a fight any time the cell doors open, with their weapons readily available. you notice when the cell doors open, whatever inmate's inside that cell will walk to the cell door immediately to see why the door's open. they will look up and down the tier to see if there's any enem

of strg with the mexican government. under president obama, the mexican government was left in the dark and were not told about any of this. thousands of gun traffic, indictments went to presidentare obama. the atf agents working in mexice and working in bloodsoaked timeo soon, they trace them back, then weren't even informed about this program. there are huge differences between the two. not to mention, we had confirmed deaths of people as a result of that, including brian terry ands to answer his question about multiple instances of "fast andn furious" programs across the united states. cooperating plenty of evidence supports that. this is happening in houston, texas where the dealerme was tod de to sell it to these guys anderes after cooperating with the federal government, they turned around and slapped a federal investigation on himli for sell3 the cartels. in florida there are allegations of them selling to a gang andt sending guns to honduras.ut, like i said, it is difficult tor keepe's up with all the news ans ev

>> well, when we talk about the hispanic origins of all of these latinos in the united states, mexican americans are the nation's largest hispanic group. they represent nearly two-thirds of all hispanics, about 32 million people. that's followed by puerto ricans at about nine percent, cuban americans about about three and a half percent, salvadorans at about three and a half percent as well-- they're very close in number-- and dominicans also at about three percent. so when we talk about the hispanic community, it is made up of people mostly from mexico, or of mexican origin, but there's a lot of diversity, particularly on the east coast. in cities like boston or in new york or in chicago, you've got diversity within the latino community. and you take a look at los angeles, there's a lot of diversity there as well. but just as with chicago, mexican americans are dominant in those two cities. >> hinojosa: how many of those 50.5 million latinos were born in the united states? >> more than six in ten were born in the united states. so right now about 62% is what the number is. we had been

i read a column called ask the mexican. ask a mexican is exactly what it sounds like. people ask me questions about mexicans and answer them. it doesn't matter what the questions may be. i've answered questions on everything from why do mexicans have so many babies that were part of illegal don't we understand too why don't mexicans pay any taxes? we do actually. some studies show where supporting social security is in it because of a document of folks pay and system with a social security numbers will never get that to buy our mexicans always so happy? i've answered all of it and more. >> see the rest of these remarks from gustavo arellano tonight. >> on this morning's "washington journal," we have to do penance what they think of the political parties. >> after seeing the same policies driven by both parties, they disagree with the other party, i just ended up being an independent. >> i think the end of party should be changed to the people's party because the other two are just too many parties. >> the way i look at an independent voter is it gives you a chance to s

a validated mexican mafia member. they'll draw something really nice and send it back to him or they'll send it to his family on the street which in turn will make a full circle and come back inside as a form of respect, for him, hey, this is for you. we made this for you. and they just really preach to these guys that they were -- their ancestors were aztec warriors and they even go as far as to learn the aztec language. they call it nahuatl. >> inmate charles manson's artwork is regularly confiscated to prevent it from being sold as gruesome souvenirs. >> this is a scorpion that he made. basically just taking thread from various types of items, socks and t-shirts and towels, and he creates it and uses, looks like a marker to color it. this is -- this is probably one of the items that he makes the most of, are these scorpions and spiders. other inmates try to sneak it out and put it on ebay and sell it and whatnot, so we confiscate it. >> another all-too-common discovery in these searches is a variety of handmade wea

these are the famous mexican maquiladoras. angela escajeda is a researcher at the college of the northern frontier. she has come to study not the managers, but the workers at these plants. here, thousands of mostly female workers perform the final low-skilled manual assembly of televisions, toys and appliances with parts manufactured in the u.s. but why are there so many new factories, and why are they located here? it's a matter of relative location and scale. to look at this satellite photo, you'd think the gray area was one single city.
