Why is Anglo America not willing to join her Armed Forces??

Ryan

My father served in an Marine armor unit during the first Gulf War and one of the Marines in his tank was originally from Mexico. My father had greater respect for the man than any other troop because he was believed in this country more than any of his other troops.

Ironic, Hispanics are just about 13% of the population. You didn't give a figure for caucasian casualties because I suspect it wouldn't have supported your rant.

And we don't debate about Hispanics on this board. We debate about illegal immigration. See the difference?

Dont ask questions!! either join the marines or shut up!

Yes, lets just say that 10% are black, that means that what your call us Anglos make up 80.5. If 80.5 of the volunteer forces are Anglo what is your beef. As to bigots that pretty well covers you. As for taking causality, is it sad when those who are wounded or die for this country that deserve our gratitude, not your ranting on a Webb site

Your right, LEGAL immigrants have earned the right. However, ILLEGAL immigrants don't deserve the rights. Those immigrants who serve are LEGAL, and God bless them. The ILLEGALS do not serve, and do take jobs American want because they are the nearest source of slave labor.

Illegal aliens are NOT allowed to enter the military, so your statistics you have do NOT include them.

As was stated, the percentage of Hispanics in the military is in line with the percentage of the general population, perhaps a little lower.

The percentage of white Americans in the military is not lower percentage wise as you suggest in your "statistics". As a matter of fact (I was a military recruiter), there are allowances and incentives made to recruit minorities...because historically they don't qualify as easily as most...either morally, due to police involvement, drug use, etc...or mentally...unable to pass the "ASVAB" test. There ARE strict policies in place...you must either be a citizen or have a "green card"...which is verified before entrance into the military.

12. Buying counterfeit auto license tabs instead of paying the sate - Misdemeanor

13. Buying phony auto insurance from Mexican operatives so automobile with counterfeit tabs can be registered - Misdemeanor

14. Claiming poverty in a household with high income (for you less than informed - illegal households can easily make as much $100,000 a year tax free) so children can apply for free lunches at school - misdemeanor

15. Claiming poverty to get free medical care from free clinics - Felony - Fraud (hundreds in LA alone) and using first class hospital emergency rooms as family doctors for non-emergency medical - ALL ILLEGALS HAVE 100% MEDICAL COVERAGE AT NO COST TO THEM - PERIOD - Misdemeanor - Deportation.

16. Traffic citations and accidents - Illegals have no real name or address - if they are get a citation or are involved in an accident - they just disappear and surface again with a new counterfeit license and address- and good luck with your insurance company - misdemeanor â€“ Deportation

I applaud the immigrants who are fighting for our country to gain citizenship. My great grandfather did the same in WWI. But 13% of the casualties is not a very high percentage, in fact based on your numbers it is less than the number of front line troops.....hmmmm why is that? And how many of these casualties were from combat? How many from accidents? Just a question.

Well, you're a little off the mark taking such a stance against Anglos on this issue. Latinos have been a great source of manpower and positive force in the American military in the modern era and few would resent their work. This is a little different than illegal immigrants hiding from authorities and living illegally in the US.

Mz. America

Here we go, its all about THEM again. He doesnt mention the other races because we're just invisible.lol I know a large number of those men in the military are Puerto Rican and Dominican. Those are in no way illegal mexican. So that point is invalid.
Stop using hispanic to group all people who speak spanish together. There is truely a difference.

Ethnicity as a % of the population of the United States

The majority of the 300 million people currently living in the United States descend from European immigrants who arrived since the establishment of the first colonies, but especially after Reconstruction. This majority, 69.1% in 2000.

Americans of Latin American origin are known as Hispanics or Latinos and are the largest minority group in the country, composing 12.5% of the population in 2000.

"Whites" are over represented as a percentage of deaths in Iraq..... 68% of the population and 74% of deaths.

Hispanics are under represented as a percentage of deaths in Iraq..... 12% of the population and 10% of deaths.

Anglo America is a wide word... be more specific.. name an ethnicity or religion...

My Business Plan

First, post a link proving your statistics.
Second, the Hispanics in the military, are not illegal. They have made their pledge, and took the oath. Therefore, they are not illegal.
Third, the military is not segregated into racial groups. When a military person goes to boot camp, everybody is equal, there are no colors or races in boot camp.
Fourth, why do you point out Anglo Americans? In case you haven't noticed, Anglo Americans are fast becoming the minority. The military is made up of many different races. Why don't you pick on the Filipino? Why don't you pick on the African Americans? Why don't you pick on the Asians?
I'll tell you why.
BECAUSE YOU ARE A FAT MOUTH RACIST!!!!!!
