LOS ANGELES, April 21 (UPI) -- Los Angeles is at the leading edge of a U.S. demographic trend, with half of its workforce immigrants, many of them unskilled and speaking little English.

The elites wet themselves dreaming of destroying the America of our fathers.

In another age we'd hang their traitorous asses, but alas we've grown fat, dumb & flaccid.

Exactly how many are legal immigrants, and exactly how many are illegal immigrants? The MSM are the true “racists” for always lumping all immigrants together!

Just more proof to buttress the claim that LA is becoming a third-world city.

America used to get the best of the immigrants, now we get illiterate peasants who would just as soon free-load on our tax dollars as perform a day’s work. And I’ve been telling people here in Southern California, especially those mindless liberals who facilitate all this, that they have no idea how corrupt this place is becoming, and how poorly they will be treated as the Mexicans take over more and more of the state.
