It sickens me that anyone in here would be salivating over a possible Hispanic majority or takeover when if and when it might occur it would be directly due to massive illegal immigration from Mexico and other Latino countries. Would these hypocrites also be salivating if millions of illegal Chinese for example were to do the same thing to Mexico?

Look at this this way by the time it happens you'll probably be dead.
When did redneck, or anglo become racial slurs? Hell, gringo is a racial slur? Again, since when?
And i know quite well what mojado means. Again, folks can say things about themselves that others shouldn't say. Just because Mexicans use certain derogatory words for each other doesn't mean that you should do it too. That's common sense.
If a Black dude or "brown" Hispanic called a white guy a "redneck"; that "redneck" may cuss him out or worse. In other words: don't go there. You may not like it. Yes; "redneck" CAN be a race slur.
Bigotry? Def against illegal aliens and the people who help them out, of course.
FYI, brainyack, this is NOT the illegal immigration sub forum. If you wanta talk about illegals take it over there.
The subject of this thread is Hispanics assimilating into American culture. The implication is were talking about legal hispanics, otherwise the moderators would have moved this thread pver to the illegal immigration sub forum. Please stay on topic, bashing illegals is off topic.

Try again. I was referring to my feelings towards illegal aliens cause I'm NOT bigoted against American Hispanics despite your saying I was. The La Raza ones I don't like tho.
I see you didn't read the report I cited. It was based on several national studies and was drawing national conclusions.
Quote:
A report released today by the University of Southern California that projects the growth of immigrant generations in the United States has the second-generation children of immigrants poised to make up a larger share of the overall U.S. population in coming years, more so than they have in the past.
One of the underlying studies, Projections of the U.S. Population, 2010-2140, by Immigrant Generations and Length of U.S. Residence for the Foreign Born by JohnPitkin and Dowell Myers October 2011
The conclusions they drew were that by 2040, " “the total foreign stock (parents and children with recent immigrant roots) is currently 22.5% of the total U.S. population and is projected in 2040 to rise to 30.5%..." That is 30% being first or second generation immigrants. When you added 3rd, 4th, 5th generations and beyond the percentage that identify as Hispanic will soon, 2040 to 2050, outnumber non Hispanic whites.

Good, then there is no reason for you to participate further in this thread because it is not about illegals.

You didn't cite a report, you cited a blog. (The report is linked in the blog) I actually post comments on that blog - Multi-American.
Packard was talking Hispanic birth rates (got to remain on topic remember?), you cited the report (blog) as proof of Hispanic birth rates, which it doesn't do. The rest of your ignorant claim is hilarious and nowhere in your link does it claim as you do: When you added 3rd, 4th, 5th generations and beyond the percentage that identify as Hispanic will soon, 2040 to 2050, outnumber non Hispanic whites. This is but your made up projection based on absolutely nothing other than your lack of mathematical skills and report comprehension.
Here is the actual link to the report from your blog link.

Generational Projections of the California Population By Nativity and Year of Immigrant Arrival
This report provides uniquely detailed projections of California’s population numbers and characteristics. In addition to the standard content of age, gender and race or Hispanic origin, the Pitkin-Myers/USC projections describe foreign-born and California-born components. The new projections also provide detail on immigrant generations and the length of residence in the U.S. for the first generation. Projections of the total population are carried through 2050, while the detailed characteristics are reported through 2030.
Here is the UNDERLYING report (actually a NEWS RELEASE) link:News Releases NOTE: the link this link claims goes right back to the above link of California. Demographic Futures
An UNDERLYING report still doesn't prove Hispanic birth rates, all it says is that foreign born or children of immigrants will jump by 8% in 30 years. Some of those may be Hispanics, but then some of them won't be.

From his own linked report (blog link) as it pertains to Hispanics specifically:
Quote:
Questions of Future Trajectories
Sections 2 to 4 of the report address common important
questions about California’s population.
• The 2010 census delivered a major surprise to
California, because its count came in well below
the projections prepared by the State of California
in 2007. Looking forward, a major question
is how much growth to expect for the current
decade and those beyond. (Section 2)
• Rapid changes in the racial and Hispanic composition
of the population have proceeded in
California at least since 1970. Given that migration
patterns have shiftedand birth rates have
decreased, should these changes now be expected
to continue at the same rate in the coming decades?
(Section 2)
His own link proves his assertions as wrong.

. Non-hispanic whites will still be the majority of all ethnicities, they are projected to be 46% of total population.
