The Mexicans I know consider themselves Latino. I have heard them use the words "white boys" many time's refering to caucasians.

Please anwser my question......

Do you think in 50 years there will be any predominantly caucasian places left?
I believe Canada and some of Europe will be "caucasian centers" in 50 years. I live in Texas, and I'll tell ya, I'm already a minority, and I'm beginning to feel the racism against me for being white. If I'm 50 and I notice a lot of racism toward other whites by non-whites, I'm hopping on the first train to Canada.

Who cares if there are no caucasian majority countries? (though I don't think that'll happen in 50 years) What is even your definition of Caucasian? Hitler's? Many Mexicans, Indians, Middle Easterners are Caucasians too. It matters more that the citizens are law abiding, respectful, contributing members of society than their skin color. Why do you fear of being a minority? Do you treat present day minorities differently than your definition of whites?

I care because I read truthful websites such as American Renaissance and understand there's a corrolation between the people who occupy a country and the country's quality of life.

Wow, a lot of caucasian whites would care if their countries populations would no longer be in majority, just as hispanics, blacks or asians would care if their own countries populations would be no longer in majority. Hitlers idea of caucasian? Indians and middle easterners are not caucasian. Then you talk about whites treating minorities differently. Your post sounds racist, read it.

I think that with the world changing so rapidly, there is likely to be big changes in different countries policies in the coming years toward limiting both immigration and population, therefore it's possible that things will even out some.

Glad to......

1--Dissolved and no longer "in business"----
-------
*the former Soviet Union
*Yugoslavia
*The Roman Empire
*The British Empire
*The Mongol Empire
*British India (once included the whole subcontinent)
*East and West Pakistan
*Czechoslovakia
*The Inca Empire
*Ireland (the entire island)
*Cyprus (the entire island)
*Palestine
*the United Arab Republic


2--Still technically "in business", but suffering severe cultural stresses--
--------
*South Africa
*Zimbabwe
*Iraq
*Sri Lanka
*Russia
*Tibet
*Virtually all of sub-Saharan Africa

3--Not yet in serious danger, but not altogether tranquil, either--
-----
*Canada (English vs French)
*Brazil
*The United Kingdom
*The USA
*Peru
*Mexico
*Spain

-------Hope this helps with your question BTW, the fact that some of these places don't meet your definition of "powerful societies" probably provides little comfort to the populations affected.....

Look up "Caucasian" in any respectable reference (i.e. not published by the kkk). racist? how? in the same mind that doesn't consider Middle Easterners Caucasians?

Maybe a European country that's been mostly white for eons, but America? Hello, wake up, Caucasians haven't been here for that long. And becoming a majority by pure innocent and decent expansion? No, by a slaughtering of the natives and exploitation of Africans. So don't cry victim here. I'm not for illegal immigration but when people start talking about America like they have more right to be here than another LEGAL immigrant just because of the skin color, then they need a reality check.

Are you 12?

Seriously, tone down the attitude. It's not necessary.

Nobody said white people have more entitlement to live in America. The slight concern is growing old in a country where some people no longer make up a decent portion of the population. I said I'd move to Canada to be around similar people. Humans generally segregate themselves naturally. White people want to be around white people, blacks around blacks, and Hispanics around Hispanics. That's why "racial communities" exist. Not always because of racism, my friend, but because of human nature.

And for the record, I'm from a younger generation. I grew up in the Pasadena and Deer Park area (1992-2000) and grew up around other races. Racism is not an issue for me, because I judge character. Right now, you're showing a hostile, judgmental character, so if I met you in person and you happened to be black, I would ignore you because of your attitude, not race.
