Then the statement should be made in that way, so that one understands that it is the NUMBERS, not the intrinsic character of the people. I hope you see my point.

I now see your point, but this debate about illegal aliens is fraught with charges about racism and nativism. If anyone dares suggest that Hispanics make up the vast majority of illegal aliens, you are accused of being anti-Hispanic and anti-immigrant.

Yes, there are plenty of illegal aliens from non-Hispanic countries and about one-third of the illegals come here legally on legitimate visas and then just disappear so it is more than just our southern border that needs to be secured. However, most of the illegals are the poor and undeducated from Latin America. They are the main source of problems with our overburdened medical, social welfare, educational, and penal systems.
