I might be wrong but illegals are not counted in censuses, are they?
Well, I need to disagree. The more people we have means the more mouths to feed, more cars to sell, more houses to built, more barbers to meet the demand and so on, so in fact it may create new jobs. If you don't believe this, find out which states have better job opportunities: those with rising population (like Texas or Florida) or those with slow population growth or even population decline (like Michigan or Maine).
When it comes to natural resources then yes, it's a serious problem. I wouldn't be scare quite yet though. US population density is really low compared to other developed nations. This overpopulation crisis argument I've been hearing for years and it was used way before I was born (check out the history of Planned Parenthood for instance), yet the American problem is obesity, not hunger.
Yes, you are wrong. Illegal immigrants are counted in the census. You have tunnel vision as to what is healthy population growth and what isn't. Are you familiar with the term "carrying capacity" of a country? You really need to educate yourself because it isn't just about land mass. Having a lower density population is in keeping with the carrying capacity of a country. You're going way off topic here. We were discussing illegal immigrants. They have no right to be here regardless of what our carrying capacity/population density is. We have a legal way to come here and is the only acceptable to come here. Surely you're not defending them including the altering of our identifying culture and demographics, arey you? You obviously have no idea the huge tax dollars and loss of Americans that they cost us. As I said, educate yourself and then come back with a rational debate.
For the life of me I can't understand why the right-wing is having a hard time attracting support from Hispanics.
Because Hispanics expect our politicians to put their ethnic group above our immigration laws and reward them for breaking them. So far the Democrats are the only chumps catering to such arrogance and racism for votes.

That's funny because Rubio and Ryan are rushing to start work on immigration reform. I guess they think being a minority party for a generation isn't the most ideal situation for the GOP. I doubt they can convince the knuckle-dragging wing of the GOP to come along, but at least they are trying.
It would be ironic if the GOP becomes a minority party, full of white people, for the next generation.
In the 1970s, California had the highest rate of high school graduates. Sadly, California now has the lowest high school graduation rate in the country. If we continue to encourage the impoverished people of Mexico to come here, this dismal fact will remain true.
It allows the nativists and racists to participate in a circle jerk.
So its racist for whites to resist becoming a minority. Sinse when. Why should whites be afraid to talk about it.
