12 million invaders....invaders.....invaders.... I dont want 12 million Canadians either... especially if they invade. We have a legal process for a reason..to attempt to maintain order. We have limited resources, even in this country. We already know that we can't support the legally here population that we already have.
#1 It irritates me for someone to erroneously label this with an ethnicity. It was an illegal invasion. If the Clinton and Bush 1 & II and their congresses had been "protecting the country" and maintaining the border, we wouldn't be in such a mess. (Both Parties....)
#2 How do we have any idea at all that it's 12 million? We sold that many cell phones with questionable id? So, I dare someone to even defend the amount of damage we face.
#3 The invaders came here in small numbers and they can be identified, rounded up and returned in small numbers.
We just don't have anyone willing to do their job.
Having more Hispanics in the U.S. is not a threat. However, the majority of jobs across America are requiring true Americans to speak Spanish in order to become an employee or an employer. Why isn't anyone doing something about that problem?
I have no problem listening to the California Department of Finance speaking about California, but it's another for them to start making national projections. I'll leave that job to the US Census Bureau who projects that 24.4% of the US will be Hispanic in 2050.
The problem here is that we are forced to see these people as hispanics because that's the gun they are holding to our collective head. If they were legal immigrants, they would be ready and able to assimmilate and they could be considered Americans first and foremost, as have generations of immigrants before them. Instead, we have to listen to them as they shop next to us in the grocery store chattering blissfully away in a foreign language, and we have to read signs in big box stores in both english and spanish.
I resent this poking in the fire of fears.
To suggest a "big idea" that smells like something bad
for no clear reason. Isn't this how nationalism works?
