What are all those hispanics doing in Mississippi! Another state that surprises me is Vermont.
Mississipppi is one of the top three states for chicken production, and thus probably near the top for chicken processing. The chicken processors love illegal immigrants because they can pay them even less than poor blacks and whites, and they are a lot less likely to sue if they lose a finger or hand (which is an occupational hazard) at work.
I don't understand why White people, and only White people, need to promote becoming minorities in their own countries. I don't see the Asians or Africans doing this.
Keep Europe White, that's what Asia and Africa are doing. Why is it somehow bad for White people to want this too?
Broadly speaking, Asian countries have never been anything else but Asian, African ones have never been anything else but African (although there have been big minorities in some of them since the colonial times; but feel free to tell the whites there they should not be in black Africa...), European countries have never been anything but white.
But the US and the Americas in general? They were not white originally. Ever since colonization began, there have been Hispanics, blacks, whites, and what not in addition to the original Asian population. So who is to decide what it should be like?

South Korea's foreigner population, though tiny, doubled in the last decade. We know are 2% of the population...and growing. Same with China. As we have better means of communication and travel, we have a more global population. It's now not uncommon to graduate university and take a position abroad.
From 2 different articles.
There was no link to the state data.
2/3 would be 66% from one article
Other said 50.2 which is barely half.
Edit:
The El Paso article is off..Hispanics are a little over 48%
But Whites are 33% with Blacks at 14% and the rest a mix of other minorities.
Economically disadvantaged students increased by 45%

I'm foreign-born myself, but I'm sick and tired of all that Hispanic pampering! There are plenty of other foreigners in this country who manage to make it somehow without signs in their languages, buttons for their languages, forms in their languages, etc. What makes Hispanics soooo special?! Their friggin' laziness?! If you go live in a foreign country, you learn its language!
Sad but true! When's the last time you heard: "Press 1 for English, 2 for Spanish, 3 for German, 4 for Swahili, 5 for French..." ??? Never ! That's because other nationalities work & study hard and actually become Americans.
I have wondered why every other nationality seems to be able to learn the language,except Mexicans. Must be the entitlement mentality they bring along with them. Seriously, who really wants America to turn into Mexico? What has that nation achieved that we would want to become like them? They certainly aren't coming here to become Americans,they are coming here because they believe this is THEIR country. THE reason this country is in the mess it is in is illegal immigration & how they are draining our resources. Anyone who denies that is a fool or illegal.

Very fallacious and obviously written by someone who knows nary a Mexican immigrant.
