“I am amazed at how many of the busts of BP agents involve hispanic names.”
“This process is turbocharged by affirmative action hiring of “hispanics” into U.S. police forces and other government agencies.”
I’m amazed at the ignorance both of you show. There have been just as many anglo BP agents busted for their connections to the cartels. Hispanics have been a huge part of the country for a long damn time. We serve honorably in the military. Many Medal of Honor recipients have spanish names. I have many hispanic friends who are BP agents, they are also military vets. They are just as American as you two clowns are. The majority of hispanics in the US can trace their roots in the South West back 400 years. My family was in New Mexico 60 years before the Mayflower landed at Plymoth Rock. Every ethnic group has it’s 10%, I guess you two are part of the 10% of racist clowns on Free Republic!
I didn't start seeing all the BP corruption stories until affirmative action arrived at the agency, and since then I am amazed at the number of stories that involve hispanic names, you are saying yourself that you think the hispanic minority are only matched by the non hispanic white majority, well I don't notice a 50/50 match but even if I did it would still support the problem with affirmative action and hispanic corruption.
Simply untrue. Most Hispanics in the US have snuck into our country in the last 40 years, or their parents did. The idea that most Americans of hispanic ancestry are descended form ancestors who lived in the area that is now the southwest United States is ludicrous and not supported by fact.
A more likely clue is the fact that 10% of the population of Mexico has moved into the United States in the last 30 years.
People are simply angry this demographic trend, and they have a right to be angry. Hatred, racism, and xenophobia have little to do with this dynamic, and to claim so does a disservice to the quality of dialog on FR.
