Do you have any data or papers to prove you are human?

And they claim liberalism isn't a mental disease. Sure seems to me it is.

I kind of think he/she may be using the term, rather loosely.

When your children take too much you tell them no.... it is time to do the same with the government.
The census is supposed to be exactly what Congress, in following Article 1, Section 2 of the Constitution, determines it should be. That's the way it has been for 220 years, since the first census in 1790 asked questions like: How many free white males age 16 and older? How many free white males under age 16? How many free white females?

Wishing that the Constitution directs that a census be only a head count doesn't make it so.

"The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct."

Post News, Census Says "Hispanic" Not A Race.

Bronx, NY - With millions of US Census forms hitting mailboxes this month, Latin Americans are noticing a confusing quirk in the 10-part questionnaire.

The Census does not consider Hispanic to be a racial category.

The 2010 Census Form Has No Category For People Who Consider Their Race To Be Hispanic Or Latino - WPIX

Don't sweat it. You don't have to fill out race, just answer the first question and mail it back. Done deal.

Some don't act very human.

The OP is a raging religious conservative.
