It all started when americans (US) invaded Mexico, and they were wearing their green uniforms (militar). So Mexican didn't like them and used to say "green - go" in a polite way to ask them to leave ;)

this word is from the expression " Green Go" (that's the way, northamericans call themselves when they're in war.
"Pinche gringo puñetero"

While a commonly used slang term for Americans used by Mexicans, gringo is used throughout Latin America to refer to Americans. It isn't inherently negative, but in some regions - especially Puerto Rico - gringo often is used to refer to white Americans, and many times in a derogatory fashion.
Those hipster gringos think they run this city now.
