Decades. I remember the first ones who came here in the 80s. It was no big deal. We never knew what the end game would be. Now they're at 47% and climbing. They own most gas stations, convenience stores and most businesses on Main Street.

A town north of me here in NJ (Palisades Park, NJ) has their Chamber of Commerce meetings in Korean, and that county just added Korean to English & Spanish on their ballots & such. A law was passed years ago requiring businesses to have half of their signs in English, as emergency personnel couldn’t respond effectively. My own town is more than half Hispanic at this point (mainly South Americans); the Peruvian Day Parade is now much larger than the St. Patrick’s Day Parade for which we had been renowned in the past.

Without these foreigners here northeastern NJ would be returning to its natural state.

So immigrants arrived in Lexington, home to an IBP (now Tyson Fresh Meats) beef processing plant, first by the dozens, then by the hundreds, finally by the thousands.

Thanks, guys.

America is becoming a 3rd world country

By far the greatest threat our Republic has faced since it's Founding is happening now, in the form of this very anti-American, anti-English illegal invasion.

These third-worlders aren't coming here to assimilate, to become Americans. They are coming here to get freebies and to out breed the native population.

If we don't somehow "cause" 10's of millions of illegals to get the H*ll out of our Republic, then we are done.

Our Republic will be destroyed -- forever changed into a decaying third-world spanish speaking sewer.

Masses of people live off social services, crowding hospitals, medical offices, schools, shopping centers and markets. Factor in the higher crime rate and the cost for authorities and proper agencies to deal with all this and it becomes an extreme burden on local taxpayers of which I am one. Additionally, I own rentals, some in areas that have been overrun by these foreigners. I don’t have a problem with renting to them and do; we actually have a real nice couple in one of our units. Nice as they may be, I don’t believe they are honest as when we first met he offered to pay me cash each month and told me how I could save on taxes by reporting I received less than he was actually paying me. He owns a liquor store so I can imagine how he cheats on his taxes. In at least one community they have all but taken over making it nearly impossible for me to rent to anyone who is not one of them. So yes, I believe it has adversely affected both me and my community.

Oh yes, immigrants from all over like to cheat on their taxes. My daughter had a job in a sandwich owned by guy from eastern Europe and she was the only one working there that wasn’t an illegal. He paid her cash too. I anonymously turned him in to CA franchise board but I’m sure they didn’t care as he was an immigrant. I don’t like paying taxes either so it makes me mad to see the immigrants get away with it. That leaves the taxpayers footing the bill for them.

Coming back from visiting relatives in PA, we stopped at a Lexington, NE WalMart.

It looked like we were in a Third World store - nothing but Somalis in their native garb. I wondered WTF? The Somali woman ahead of me at the checkout counter kept swiping cards until she found one that took her full basketfull. They all looked like credit cards, but I’ll warrant they were EBT versions.

I asked the Hispanic checkout girl is the woman had used EBT cards and she said she didn’t know. I told her that if she wondered who paid for those cards, all she had to do was look in the mirror. Deer-in-headlights response.

As we left the parking lot we saw a gigantic Tyson plant across the highway and then everything fell into place.

I realize that much it not most of what these people do is cultural. They cheated and did most anything they could to get by in Iraq so they do the same here. They also no doubt find it incredibly simple to beat our system. Like I said, they were dropping off their kids at school in the Mercedes and those kids were getting free lunches because the parents figured out how to fudge the paperwork allowing them to qualify.

I remember driving thru midwest, and had to stop at burger king for breakfast. Everythiing was in Spanish. What happened to my country? We need official language.

I agree. We may be a nation of immigrants but that doesn't mean we can't have an official language.

What happened to your country? Liberalism.

In the nineties I had some friends from Pakistan. One of the things that amazed them was that the police couldn’t be bribed. Same thing with Mexicans.

Now the white, probably Republican enclave is now effectively diluted with gibmedats.

No, these are working people. I'll take them over the gibsmedats any day.

Schyluer? I would not have thought that. Things sure change a lot in 30 years.
