"Now even if you ridiculously choose to compare Mexican street "gangs" to the organized gangs of Capone, Luciano, and Gambino decades ago -- which were comparatively minuscule in number -- at least they were in this country legally. Capisci?"

WOW!

That made a difference!

They had green cards!

ROTFLMAO!!!

"And for your information -- while Capone and Luciano were doing their thing, MY family -- along with 500,000 other Italian-Americans -- were fighting, bleeding, and dying in the Pacific and Europe during WWII just so YOU can open you big mouth today here in America."

Hispanics on the Rise as Largest U.S. Ethnicity

 

 By Staff Sgt. Alicia K. Borlik

 WASHINGTON -- Hispanics account for almost 11 percent of the 
 American population, numbering near 30 million, according to the 
 U.S. Census Bureau. And their numbers are expected to triple by 
 the middle of the next century, accounting for nearly a quarter 
 of America's population.
 
 The fastest growing ethnic group in America is also increasing 
 its presence in the military. Since 1987, the percentage of 
 Hispanics in uniform has increased more than any other group, up 
 3 percent to almost 100,000 in strength, according to statistics 
 from the Defense Manpower Data Center in Monterey, Calif.
 
 The Army shows the largest Hispanic increase in the past 10 
 years. Despite the drawdown, the number of Hispanic soldiers 
 increased 10 percent even as the ranks of white and black 
 soldiers decreased about 40 percent each. Hispanic soldiers 
 currently account for nearly 7 percent of the Army.

Only 7%?
I take my mother to the Veterans; cemetery in Houston every month to visit my father's grave.
Near the entrance is a new section reserved for those killed in service, (meaning Iraq and Afghanistan). We always stop and pay our respects. I've never counted, but I would guess that a third are Hispanic.

"WOW!

That made a difference [in comparing illegal Mexicans with Italian immigrants]!

They had green cards!

ROTFLMAO!!!"

One's legal, the other's CRIMINAL.

Of course YOU wouldn't see any difference, lol.

And btw, have you heard of a place called ELLIS ISLAND?

Or an immigration procedure called SPONSORSHIP"??

Everyone BUT apparently Mexicans are subject to even the most rudimentary immigration laws established by these United States.

Luis, you are you either ignorant beyond belief, or just plum loco.
