Honestly, I don't care about the "changes". I know you may think that sounds lame/disingenous, but honestly, American society is so far down the ****ter, I think some "color" would be a welcome change. Many of the immigrants I've met are good people and work hard, unlike some subsets of Americans.

He has 9 'relatives' living with him in a 2 bedroom house...they do not work....they go to emergency room for toothaches...the 13 yr old drives their car because "it's ok in Mexico". Their 20 yr old son just arrived from Mexico with his 14 yr old pregnant wife.
I've called immigration and the police and told "not a priority".

I'll lose 15k when I sell my house due to the neighborhood going to illegals...
it will be worth it to get away from these people.
I would call I forget the dept. I think that planning and zoning will be able to direct you as far as the number of occupants that can reside in a home legally. Or better yet call immigration and turn them in.......

the physical and social empirical evidence is there for you study.
Have you ever been to those countries?

They are not as successfully mixed as you would like to think

so basically you accept the defeat by the 70+ year war against the US by the latino drug empires. the society which you curse is the direct result of this war. the new society which you embrace as the solution to the problems created by the agitators are the legions of the agitators.

Diversity is not the problem.

Non-assimilation, insistence upon bilingual education, social services stretched nearly to bankruptcy, and natural resources which are on a collision course with extinction--now those are problems.

I am of European and Native American extraction. My sister married a second generation Japanese American so my niece and nephews are European/Apache Japanese Americans. One of my other sister's husband is second generation Mexican American and my nieces and nephew are European/Apache Mexican Americans. My newest grandchild is bi-racial, Black and American mutt.

I don't worry about the racial mixture of this country. I worry about the disappearance of American culture--which is worth saving, and the destruction of our natural resources as well as the disintegration of the social fabric of this country.

As far a racial diversity is concerned, I wouldn't care if we were all striped and polka dotted.

Which brings me back to my original question: how do we define American culture? What is it that you are trying to save? I bet there is no unanimous definition of American culture.

I had a discussion once with a Christian fundamentalist who defined American culture through the prism of his own religion: white Anglo Saxon protestantism. His definition obviously excludes large swaths of the American population: American Catholics, Mormons, Jews, blacks, native Americans, agnostics/atheists etc etc. Do these groups have less of a claim to American culture than the WASP? Who gave the WASP the right to monopolize the label American to himself?

I think any change due to legal immigration is a good thing.

But demographic shifts due to illegal aliens is something entirely different. And the effect of illegal aliens on American society can be seen by anyone visiting a local jail. Illegal aliens have no respect for America, or any of her people. They commit crime in a manner that destroys communities and neighborhoods. And the more our population demographics shift due to illegal aliens, the more our very country itself will be destroyed.

I don't see how getting upset over the color of my neighbors is productive or christian. For one, people are people and there are lots of white *******s too. Second, as far as "defeat" goes, you post is typical Stormfront nonsense. And since I don't see either Euro-Americans or Europeans themselves "doing" anything about reversing the demographic decline (read: Make more children), then frankly, it's little use.
