white holding up the majority tough

yeah we got a lot of people!

Texas joins California, New Mexico and Hawaii as states with majority-minority populations -- with Latinos the largest group in every one of those states except for Hawaii, where it is Asian-Americans.

Five other states -- Maryland, Mississippi, Georgia, New York and Arizona -- aren't far behind, with about 40 percent minorities.

that sucks

isn't it a tad misleading to group a bunch of minorites together to arrive at a total, rather than compare stats race to race?

I don't think so. It's just another way of looking at the stats.

yeah.. the way to make white people like like a minority...
when in fact they outnumber any single race.. (7:1 in texas for example where you just stated they were a minority)

Which happens to be the truth when compared to all minorities combined, which is what they're reporting.

what that article also fails to point out is the relation between illegal immigration and these stats.

illegal immigrants having children here for sake of citizenship lead to a lot of this.

california also houses 1/3 of all illegals, so these numbers would HAVE to be affected by the amount of illegals as well as the legals.

california just elected its first latino Mayor. born and raised in Los Angeles.

Some numbers on illegal immigration and how it deeply has an effect on the numbers in our country, and very directly on individual states that feel this weight the most.

I have nothing against legal immigration I can understand why people want to come here, but I see no need to not read as much about this and face the facts. As a Californian I see groups of illegals on corners looking fo day labor and cops literally just drive by them and the problem is basically "ignored" because Los Angeles police cannot deport anyone.

This problem is growing as I have seen over the past 7 years being here. Educate yourself and try to understand this growing phenomena.

its also no wonder the birth rate has doubled either.

anchor babies.

Its sad, but why should anyone bother to do immigration legal when you can have an achor baby?

I know these people just want a better life but why even have laws and rules in place if anyone can just do this?

THis clearly has a very dramatic effect on all stats related to immigration and texas, and CAlifornia specifically, both are majority ruled by Latino.

Gee that all adds up to 110% wtf .I guess they gave it 110% to be right....

Strange you really summed up the numbers. :1orglaugh

It dosen't really matter as long as they aren't going into the voting boots

Another fine day in the streets of downtown Los Angeles.

I can't fuckin wait to get out of this place. :(

Why live the place you own?

American Indian and Alaska Native: 2,475,956 (0.9%);

OWNED

Did California and Texas blah not belong to Mexico?
Did some nice white folks not ship blacks in for slavery?
What happened to the Native Americans?

The track record reflects the population - little surprise in that!

my threads always get bumped forever
