Yes, but don't forget the little FACT that Whites have created and maintained the greatest societies in the world. I am not saying this to be racist.....but a decreased role for Whites in society...will and is making this less of a country.
Actually you guys are gonna start experiencing racial discrimination in Cali real soon. You'll see what we've been complaining about for decades and this is only the beginning.
And calling me tea party ish is quite lame, nothing in me I represents the tea party nor do I hold any racial hatred towards any groups, your post on blacks and brown math scores speaks for itself. Your opinion of groups.
Yes if I was a white man living in Cali I'd be worried solely by the fact that a lot of the social networking advantages whites have has for decades is going away.
LOL "you guys" sure makes you sound tea-party.
I'm all for more latinos. I speak spanish, I prefer latina women and my job is unaffected by any increase in cheap labor via immigration (legal or otherwise) while I get the benefit in terms of cheaper goods and services due to the depressed labor pool.
If you have an issue with any comments I made about whites, blacks and hispanics being under-represented in math and science fields due to US culture being anti-academic, please do so in the appropriate thread instead of flailing wildly trying to distract us from your racist views.

I think you ignore much of non-European history.
The simple fact is that, after indigenous Americans, Hispanic folks had cities and industry in California long before the Anglos got there. Maybe it is time they were in the majority again, instead of the more recent arrivals.

Yep. Besides look around. How many of us are a 1/4 this, 1/2 that and so on and so forth? More and more. My buddies kids are spanish\native south american\indian (from india)\swedish . My fiance is Mexican plus euro-mix with a little far east thrown in for good measure.
It's mixes like this that will be the face of america 100 years from now and peoples "skin tone" will just be a feature like breast size, jaw line and so forth. Except for a small group of idiots but we will always have those.

Yep. History depends a lot on the selection of time and place. There were advanced cultures in Africa, China, South America back when the Europeans were still jabbing at each other with pointy sticks. (exaggeration but the general point is true.)
Note that by the same token, a lot of people point to the Europeans as bloodthirsty conquerers while ignoring the history of those subjugated cultures that had pretty much done the same thing until someone better armed showed up on the scene.
Consider this, 80 years ago or so....my grandmothers family didn't want their dutch daughter running around with "that english boy". Families didn't want thier catholic kid marrying a protestant.....that's where we are all headed. Another 100 years ago it won't be anybody being "the majority" anymore than someone would look at a white city that used to be heavily german whites and wondering if the german whites are going to be more plentiful than Italians and so forth.

That's not 100 years ago. I have two relatives who have not spoken to me in 35 years since I married a Catholic girl.
Them heathens pray to the Pope, according to the Southern Baptists.

It all depends whether it is a natural tranformation or it was done via illegal immigration. No country in the world would embrace an illegal invasion of their country that changes their demographics and culture and rightly so! There isn't a damned thing bigoted about it either.
