Ironic though isn't it that darn near EVERY Mexican in Mexico wants to come here still, not to mention Cubans, El Salvadorians, Chinese, etc. It's not the other way around my friend.
That's speaks volumes about this terrible country.
Umm.... you do know that Spanish is a European language, and the roots of Latin culture are.... well... LATIN (European)...
Lest we all forget that Spain was a colonizer that decimated the native cultures of Latin America! It's just that less Indians died from disease in Latin America than North America.
Spain may have decimated the people but the culture still lives on. Native American culture is very much alive in many parts of Latin America, especially in the Northen Andes and Central America. Just because they speak Spanish doesnt mean they are a European-based culture.

Are you sure it's EVERY Mexican who wants to come here? Sure, many want to come here, but there are many who want to stay in Mexico. It is mostly the poor who want to come here. The educated, the ruling elites, and the middle class are the ones who are staying.
El Salvadorans and Cubans are trying to come here, but I don't see many Costa Ricans, or Chileans trying to come here.
I'm white and for most of my life I've lived in a city where I've been a racial minority. Hispanics make up 59.7% of the population. We don't all live in squalor and the vast majority of people speak English. //www.city-data.com/city/Corpus-Christi-Texas.html
So.....chillax. It's gonna be fine.
Nope! Because this growth is mostly from illegal immigration from their group. We're going to be fine when the majority of this group becomes the dominant one when they have no respect for the rule of law?

And that is precisely why our culture would change via illegal immigration from mostly Mexico. Their culture is different than ours and their language is Spanish not English.
I just remember this from the election time, maybe someone will get a kick out of it.
It was a few days before the election and I'm driving to work. This Chevy PU passes me and I'm thinking "I have to speed up and see this yahoo". The PU had a Bush/Cheney sticker on it and next to that a Romney. An NRA sticker next to a Confederate flag sticker. Turns out it's an Asian dude. Total redneck.
I was thinking, wow maybe there is hope for the immigrants because this guy sure was embracing America LOL.

I am reading this, and I shake my head. If I see someone with a Confederate flag sticker, I pretty much get angry. I don't express it, but I would not be happy to see someone with a Confederate flag bumper sticker. I don't see having a Confederate flag as embracing America.

People like that are almost always people that follow this line of thinking, "I love the Constitution, it needs to be saved from the evil libruls. That's why I'm seceding from it"
