120 million hispanics in the US by 2050?
Find answers to your legal question.





120 million hispanics in the US by 2050?

Jorge Ramos mentioned last night in the Texas Democratic debate that the US would have 120 million Hispanics by 2050. I'm not a US citizen or anything, but I would be pretty pissed if there was a stat like that for my country. Not because of them being Hispanics, but the nation's culture being gradually replaced with something else. The border states aside, doesn't this bother most Americans?

lavidasigue40, here's a dictionary devinition of the word Hispanic:

Late 16th century. From Latin Hispanicus.

1. of Spain and Spanish people: relating to or typical of Spain, or its people or culture
2. of Spanish-speaking people: relating to or typical of Spanish-speaking people or their culture
3. of people of Spanish descent: relating to or typical of people descended from Spanish or Latin American people or their culture

Note the third explanation.

I can't believe there are morons still bringing up Native Americans as an argument.

Hey idiots, it's 2008, didn't you get the memo. Maybe try and use an excuse in at least the 21 century and you won't look so stupid.

Yep.. where are you from?

Europe is being populated by Muslims as well.

It is not a problem unique to us.

Don't worry, the world will end before 2050.
By that time, race is the last thing people have on their minds.


Saul Tigh
No because he didn't go into detail about what that stat represents. It could very well include all Hispanics, those born in the US as well as immigrants.

The only legal people in America (as a continent are Native Americans)

Do not try to use Hispanic as a general denomination, I cannot call an USA citizen British, just because USA was a British Colony.

It would only bother me if this consisted of that many illegals. What exactly is American culture? It's a mixture of things that we can all appreciate. It's not like we're all going to be speaking Spanish (not that that would be bad) and that we're no longer going to remember our American history and Constitution. People said that about Blacks and Asians at one time, when in fact, different races simply enhance the environment.

I'm actually more concerned about another Bush entering the White House!

P.S. I think the word you mean to use is Latinos.

It does not bother John McCain, nor the Republican Party so it does NOT bother me.

The Republicans and McCain know best. If they say amnesty, then amnesty.


Mr_Roboto
Culture? What the hell are you talking about?

American culture is ABOUT the assimilation of other cultures, "melting pot" anyone? It's what made America strong in the first place.

So for me: No it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Man I moved from London to Bolivia and wouldn't change it for the world - needless to say you can pick up 1,000 heactres here for about $300,000 and there ain't no body at all to bother one !! Other reasons make my stay here mighty enjoyable but hell the climete be mighty and vast open space, etc, etc - who needs the crap pumped out inthe media in the states ?

2050? They should be at 120 million in the next week at the rate they're at it.


sloanewhitley
Yes..it sort of bothers me. I think it's due to the fact that many young..and I mean real young, Hispanics are starting families at an early age. We're talking teens and early twenties. No crime in that but they are the most multiplying demographic out there. They just don't learn pregnancy PREVENTION.

The real problem is the illegal aliens from Mexico and other Hispanic countries coming in here and pro-creating..then living on OUR taxes to pay for thier damn well fare.

it sure as hell bothers me. and my parents are from a different country and they assimilated into the culture. right now in florida we have alot of spanglish. i cant believe immigrants coming to a different country think they have a right to change it. who do they think they are?? no one would have a problem with it if they spoke english and actually tried assimilate. as my parents did why cant they?


don
Hispanic girls are gorgeous.. so its nothing wrong :):)

Doesn't bother me. We have a very high hispanic population in Minnesota. And I am fine with it. No worse than when my great, great grandparents came over from Germany and America was flooded with Germans and other assorted Europeans.

So what?

Don't say hispanics inmigrants,because the most of them are from central america-salvador,guatemala,honduras,mexi... ones who come here are tha poorest and usually amerindians.I'm from spain(europe)so i'm hispanic and i don't think you have a lot of spaniards living on welfare and not speaking english.So please don't use the term "hispanic".


russ t
Yes it bothers me. My family came here as immigrants along with a lot of other family's but they did it the right way i have never had a problem with immigration just illegal immigration if you think things in the us are pricey now just wait the more people we bring into this nation the more problems we will have if every one would stop for two seconds and think about what it will do for the environment and what we will leave behind for our children people say we wont be around for 2050 but what if we are how can you look your kids and not be worried.


Barry
Then that means that there won`t be enough "real Americans`" working to pay all welfare crap that the Illegals come here for ! If we will cut the Christmas tree down , Santa will only show up once a year like he is supposed to , not 365 days a year like the Illegals expect !


Rene08
so thats good the land once belonged to native americans and then white people came over and killed them after the native americans helped them....the hispanics once owned the southwestern states alls fare payback :D
