You said it is. But it isn't.

Oh and it's not really an invasion if the powers that be really want them here.

Let me know when Mexicans immigrants start killing Americans wholesale.

“ethnic cleansing” could be used, since local populations are being replaced by different ethnic groups

From Wikipedia: The official United Nations definition of ethnic cleansing is “rendering an area ethnically homogeneous by using force or intimidation to remove from a given area persons of another ethnic or religious group.”

The majority of Americans do not want illegals here and just because our government has looked the other way it is still an invasion on the American people.

Why aren't you concerned about this rather than your flippant attitude about it? Are you an illegal and/or a Mexican yourself? A bleeding heart liberal who thinks our immigration laws are insignificant? Which is it?
Exactly.

Majority ethnic groups are being replaced.

Like the Chamber of Commerce, the Walton family, the Koch brothers, Karl Rove, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Chris Christie, etc.?

Unless you think invasions happen without command structures.

The official United Nations definition of ethnic cleansing is “rendering an area ethnically homogeneous by using force or intimidation to remove from a given area persons of another ethnic or religious group.”

When have illegals forcefully removed area person of another ethnic or religious group? I have yet to see any illegal mexicans drag a bunch of people from their property and forcefully take it. Please show me where this has happened. People leaving an area of their own volition does not make it ethnic cleansing.

Who says i'm not concerned. I am just saying that illegal immigration is not ethnic cleansing especially if the powers that be (Government, Businesses, and People with money) want them here. Those entities are made up of American people as well. So by that objective definition, it is not an invasion.

And no, I am not an illegal immigrant nor of Mexican descent.

Intimidation is what I've seen via language and activism.
You have LaRaza and groups like that and using the language to create barriers.
I've seen poor Black neighborhoods turned Hispanic with Blacks driven out slowly by language (Spanish only) and cultural customs (family only, no outsiders).

The silver lining I see in this is that it did bring the Blacks/Whites closer together.

You only want to see what you want to see according to your narrow definition.

Well, by their own measure, they're doing a pretty crap job.

Meanwhile Republican business owners are the ones that are hiring illegal labor.

For the GOP illegal immigration is a double win:
- Business owners undercut wage, labor, and safety laws for their own profits.
- It scares up anti-illegal immigration voters who reliably show up on election day.

You want to end illegal immigration? Arrest, jail, and fine business owners that give illegals jobs.

Many non-Hispanics have been "intimidated" to leave their neighborhoods and cities because of too much legal and illegal immigration from one ethnic group moving into their neighborhoods. Yes, it is an invasion.

I looked up the big 5 and here's what I found for political contributions:

Tyson - Republican
Sandersan Farms - Republican
JBS (Swift) - Republican
Cargill - Republican
National Beef - Republican

All from Open Secrets.
