An immigrant, or child of an immigrant, that makes sure to close the metaphorical door behind them to stop other immigrants from coming in. Some portazos reiterate xenophobic talking points about immigrants and refugees to fit it with citizens. Portazos can be ethnocentric about the original country and their new adopted country. Others just care about their new adopted country; forgetting where they came from. While the term is used for the hispanic/latin community, it isn't limited to that community.
