You think there could be a reason?

Nearly two thirds of Latinos in the U.S. think they are being discriminated against, and most of them think the backlash over illegal immigration is the cause of the bias. More than half of them told reporters they feared being deported. You think there could be a reason for that fear -- like maybe they're illegal?

Eighty-six percent of respondents said that illegal immigrants should be placed on a path to citizenship once they pass background checks and pay a fine. Only 13 percent believe illegals should be deported. You think that could be the reason citizens don't like them?

The bottom line, however, is that illegals evidently aren't suffering enough bias. They're still here, aren't they?
