“The US makes it easy for them not to. Press 2 for Spanish, everything printed in English and Spanish.”

****

EXACTLY. My GF and I took the train to Universal Studios with her Canadian cousins and the damn ticket machine was 1 ENGLISH 2 SPANISH.

I am sure tourists from all over the world are asking why Spanish??

Cheers! Every word of it true. I would say we already have multi-generational integration. It’s the new, younger crowd coming from failed states illegally who are the greatest concern. Many of them were organized to willfully defy our laws, not integrate and to intentionally damage our nation.

“Better than muslims”

Why do we need immigrants in the first place?

Why not encourage large families of Americans by making life easier on them? Lower taxes, cheaper housing because they don’t have to compete with immigrants...like that

The only answer is to import the entire population of Mexico and 1/4 of the Chinese population?

What for? To make up for the kids aborted because the government told women in the 70’s and 80’s that we were “overpopulated” and there was no room for their offspring?

The Rockefeller Commission said in 1972 that the nation had no need of further population. That was back at about 200 million people. We’re now at 320-ish, no one knows.

What for?

Y’all Catolicos need reinforcements so this time around, the Mexican War gets won by the “right” side? Not us damn gringos?

Are Hispanics assimilating? In my extended family, yes. Two of my grandchildren have married Hispanic men. The men are citizens, hard workers and have been welcomed into our family.

"“One of the big problems is the US educational system”

"Yes the leftist run schools are teaching anti-assimilation or a bizarro assimilation in to a socialist US."

The MAIN problem, by design, is the government-controlled education system... Essentially, in 1960's, the Borg invasion occurred under the guise of the Dept of Education... Resistance has been futile... The children have been assimilated, eventually becoming teaachers who then assimilated the next generation and so on and so on... Our society is probably 70% composed of Borgs by now... All recoverable only through permanent isolation from the hive mind, or, extinction...

Of course the brilliant strategists responsible for all of this clearly stated and published the means by which the current tyranny would come about...

The Fabians, in the late 1800's, determined that the most efficient road to marxism/socialism would be through long-term development of absolute control of a nation's education system... It has worked everywhere it has been tried...

Back in the late 60s, early 70s, when some Blacks were segregating the civil rights movement, Hispanics/Latinos in ththe US were faced with a choice.

Republican Latinos, both Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Dominicans and South Americans argued that they were and ethnic just like Poles, Italians, etc. They argued that they were assimilating and favored the melting Bupot. They came from the 48% of Puerto Ricans who are Republicans and all PAN and most PRI Mexicans. They are Hispanics.

The Puerto Ricans favoring colonialism, led by the Marxists favoring independence, and with the support of the Marxist Mexican PRD types, favored the separation model of Black Separatists. They are Latinos.

High Profile Republicans repeatedly mess this up by doing things to remind Hispanics that the Republican Party is the Party that supports Marxists and aides and abetts in the genocide of Mexicans.

Case in point, Charles Percy, from the Marxist enabling wing of the Republican Party, thought that the way to reach Hispanic Republicans was to spout Marxist rhetoric.

Case in point, Jim Ryan, from the stupid establishment wing of the Republican Party, tried to genocide/murder Rolando CCruz.

Other examples could be given. Bottom line, Republicans are their own worst enemies.

Not in LA they’re not. There must be four or more Spanish language TV channels, and one fourth of the radio stations as in Spanish as well.

America needs a 20 year moratorium on ALL immigration.

From everywhere.

Hah. Ten years ago it was 10% in a PA school district?

Vendome isn’t letting you in on the secret: out here in CA the LAUSD is like 75% hispanic, and that’s across the entire system of 673000 students. Lotta schools there are like 90% hispanic.

Linky here:

https://achieve.lausd.net/site/handlers/filedownload.ashx?moduleinstanceid=52741&dataid=80515&FileName=Fingertip%20Facts2019-20_English.pdf

Note that there’s nothing “diverse about this crowd”:

“English and 99 languages are spoken in Los Angeles Unified schools. Los Angeles Unified has 123,579 students who are learning to speak English proficiently. The primary languages are Spanish (92.3% of English learners) and Armenian (1.42%). Korean, Tagalog, Cantonese, Arabic, Vietnamese and Russian languages account for less than 1% of the total.”

Got it? 92% of English learners speak Spanish. Everyone else is in the noise. German, French, Dutch, Italian? Forget it. It’s just a sea of Mexicans.

For the last 3 decades those of us in the West have been telling the rest of the country this was happening and we wanted it stopped. But no, happy people back in PA and OH-HI-O just called us Wacists and voted Democrat again guaranteeing that the border would be pried open even further.

Now the flood is coming to your shores. Still think we’re just a bunch of gap toothed rednecks who just don’t appreciate the delicious cuisine of central Oaxaca?

So let that all sink in. Non-Hispanic whites - um, the Americans - are a tiny minority in the schools their ancestors built just a century or so ago in LA.

It’s the same in East San Jose where VD comes from. That’s why he kinda hedged with the statement - if you actually drive through there, and you happen to be a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant, you will be a tiny, tiny minority - and shopping at Eastridge mall will be one of those “cultural events” that Zoe Lofgren wants to inflict on the rest of the country so it um, gets “fundamentally transformed”.

Wake up, Bubba. Da Fundamental Transformation be comin’ yo way, and it’s a tidal wave.

What’s amazing is all the Stockholm Syndrome posters here casually lauding the fabulous assimilation of the Mexican Masses to the Gringo Lifestyle.

Apparently they all live in Frostbite Falls, MN.

Right! I remember as a boy (around 1962) we visited a Mexican family who were going to become American citizens. In those days they played the National Anthem on TV when shutting down for the night. The whole family stood up and placed their hands over their hearts as the anthem played. I’ll never forget that.

One of the older boys became a decorated Marine in Vietnam.

That’s money talking. Universal Studios doesn’t care as long as the money rolls in.

Most Hispanics who have been here a while and especially those who have been here for centuries speak English, not Spanish.

Sadly, my children do not speak Spanish. Their father is bilingual as were his parents and grandparents. My husband is Hispanic but the whole immigration story is different. I can trace his family back to Spanish Conquistadores and he is 22% Native American. The Hispanics I know completely assimilated. In fact, the recent immigrants I know have all assimilated within one generation.

The Hispanics I know are white. Some Hispanics from the Caribbean are of African descent and are not white. Hispanic is not a race.

Meskins will not assimilate due to major corporations catering to them.

Watch Alarma TV and the ads the majors pay for and air.

Meskins have Zero need to assimulate.

A caller to Doc Savage a few weeks ago stated such and he was a legal immigrant.
