I took a recent trip to California to go to Blizzcon. It was held in the Anaheim convention center right across the street from Disneyland in Anaheim, California.

There were 26,000 people who attended the convention, you had to buy tickets months in advance just to get in. We stayed in a hotel right across the street from the convention center for four nights.

Afterwards, we hit up Vegas on our way back home. Stayed there for two nights.


Let me just say, I'm from Oklahoma, so Asians tend to be pretty sporadic around these parts. Of course in California, they are plentiful. But I was pretty surprised to see so many Asians in Vegas. And I didn't know so many Asians fished off the piers in California, was kind of weird for me.

Anyway, other than the high numbers of Asians. I thought there was a strange correlation happening practically everywhere I went.

In Blizzcon, out of 26,000 people. I would be surprised if even 10 of them were black. I only remember seeing maybe five of them(of course I didn't see everyone that was there). Also, there were very few hispanics. They were probably less than 1% of attendees. Basically, the entire convention was nothing but white people and Asians. And in most of the areas of Vegas I traveled, you saw almost nothing but white people and Asians(at least the tourists).


But, as soon as you left Blizzcon and went back to my motel. It was all hispanics that were the maids and maintenance guys. Almost all of the restaurants, the gas stations, and seemingly everywhere else was nothing but hispanics. When you walked along the strip in Vegas, there were dozens of Mexicans scattered across all the streets handing out call-girl cards, as well as working in many of the businesses.

Basically, it felt like in my entire trip. Practically the only people actually working were hispanics. With the lone exception of the hot thin generally blonde waitresses that walked around the Casino at my hotel.


What would we do without them? haha

What would we do without them? It would give jobs back to the thousands of Americans who were displaced by illegals who are being paid less than minimum wage, under the table.

These Americans are now working for Mexicans.

Mexican Company Buys Fort Smith-Based OK Foods - KFSM (http://www.5newsonline.com/news/kfsm-ok-industries-sold-to-mexicanbased-company-20111028,0,1629245.story - broken link)

This company allegedly hired a lot of illegal immigrants in the states. I guess this is just vertical integration.

I wonder how many more American Companies are going to be purchased by Mexican Companies.

Bull crap. I saw a news story on the Alabama law going into effect and there was blacks and Americans in the fields picking tomatoes...another one of those jobs supposed blacks and Americans won't do.Just like roofing something my father and grandfather did and my cousins still do.

You my friend, GENERALIZE too easy. How do you know they're not from Honduras or from Alaska? The truth is though, you will NEVER see a Mexican panhandler/bum.... leave that to the whites
