I have no fear of a changing nation racially but I certainly object to our identifying culture and language changing via illegal immigration instead of being a melting pot. What part of that aren't some getting in here? Yet these same hypocrites would have a hissy fit if Mexico's culture would change in the same way via illegal immigration. I have no use for hypocrites!
Non-English speakers should not be able to serve on our juries. It presents too many problems in regards to not understanding what is going on and depending on an interpreter to relay the correct facts of the case which can be misconstrued. Doesn't one have to be a citizen to serve on our juries anyway? Why in the would a citizen not know English?
Those with an agenda in here to alter our demographics, culture and language in an unnatural an unlawful way fool no one. It is they that are the true racists against non-Hispanic whites in this country. It just kills them that we are still the majority in this country. I have no problem with minorities. What I have is a problem with illegal immigration and those who refuse to assimilate into our society and respect our identifying culture and language rather than seeking to change it. I couldn't care less what language or culture one chooses to practice at home. There, I put the lies and false accusations to rest. Not that it will stop the same usual suspects that just hate non-Hispanic whites (unless they are self-hating liberals) from pushing their lying BS!
How do either of you figure this? Many Hispanics are white, hell, some are even black.
Liquid, as I said in my prior post it is non-Hispanic white conservatives that they hate and they are salivating over their numbers dwindling in our country via lower birthrates and massive legal and illegal immigration from mostly one ethnic group rather than being the diversified nation that we are supposed to be. Their agenda fools no one while they put the racist hat on the wrong head rather than looking in the mirror.
A convicted murderer appealed his sentence because a Spanish-only speaking prospect juror was dismissed from jury duty. He lost the appeal but the NM Supreme Court ruled that lack of English is not a reason to exclude jurors, it violates their constitutional rights, and they must be accommodated with translators.

This of course is true, but a person's actual racial heritage can be ignored by the white majority. It has occurred before. The Irish, Italians and Jewish people were not thought to be white by many white Americans. You may have read the concerns that were expressed from having so many Irish or Italian immigrants coming to this nation.
ohhh, dont be naive. White is white. We know those that are bent out of shape because of this demographic shift is referring to "Euro white"
The Spanish aren't Euro-white? Last I looked Spain was in Europe. There are however Hispanic whites and non-Hispanic whites. Two different cultures and most Hispanics speak Spanish. Our national de facto language is English. I guess I am a racist if I don't want us to become another Hispanic country in identity (culturally and lingually) through illegal immigration and too much legal immigration from that ethnic group. Yeah, right.
Not one person in here has addressed the hypocricy of objecting to Mexico losing its Hispanic identity via illegal immigration. I guess there is a double standard for majority non-Hispanic white nations.
It's not for anyone to decided who becomes the majority/minority. Silly question.
Evidently, our government has decided since they aren't enforcing our immigration laws and favoring one ethnic group for legal immigration. But that's ok, right? Just as long as it is a non-Hispanic white nation losing their majority, right?
Don't you have to be a citizen to serve on a jury? How can a citizen not speak English? So much for the claims that Hispanics are assimilating linguistically into our country.
A "Phun Phact" from Philadelphia:
During America's War for Independence a significant number of patriot soldiers and officers, many from Pennsylvania, could not speak English. It has been claimed Congress even considered making German the national official language, but scholars now say there is no evidence for this.

The Irish, Italians, and Jews weren't thought to be white? Are you sure it didn't have something to do with those already here in poverty having to further compete with more new arrivals? Are you claiming that because of their labor status they were considered, racially non-white? I think you and segway are confusing race with ethnicity, they are not one in the same, you look to much at the "white privilege" claim as the reason for your arguments.
