What also pisses me off is how Mexican officials have so much to say about what is going here....Hey,here's an idea,how about you crooks stop pocketing and stealing the money that we send down there and you start spending it on the people who are fleeing from your corruption!
Ok maybe im not full on xeno but I still see nothing wrong with this.
Man I can't put my finger on it but I feel like we are getting hustled yet again. "Hey look whaty left hand is doing please don't pay attention to the right hand"
I think what people don't like about xenophobia is that it groups people up based on their religion and generalizes them as this or that. And we also benefit a lot from interacting with other countries.
Guess I'm not full-on either.
Other dictionaries agree with my milder definition.

I'm a middle east xeno. Been there and read the Quran. Its kind of hard to trust folks that have a hatred for their own people and my beliefs. Lie cheat steal kill people like me. I'm not going into great details but a guy invited us in thanked us really genuinely grateful...until his buddies come busting in.
Mexico to man. Surveying for a company and we had a freaking shootout with locals. We had a armed escort but no guns...the dudes tossed us rifles and clips. Start shooting!! They had auto rifles and freaking machetes!
You want to gripe about immigration. I think you should have to go to these countries and live amongst them for awhile.
I'm all for my fellow Americans black blue white brown or pink with zebra strikes....but we need to be selective with our immigrants. Remember Miami in the 80s.
My wife had to wait 8 months to come in legally, I don't think it's fair for others to cut in line. I hate line cutters.
