Minority births on track to outnumber white births

Minorities make up nearly half the children born in the U.S., part of a historic trend in which minorities are expected to become the U.S. majority over the next 40 years.

In fact, demographers say this year could be the "tipping point" when the number of babies born to minorities outnumbers that of babies born to whites.

DesertRhino,
Show me my ad hominem attack. She is showing her hostility toward me simply because I am saying that women have to make a choice at some point in their life and either make family a priority or their career a priority. When I ask “how many children have you had?” it is not an ad hominem attack.

People with that kind of hostile attitude toward me about the importance of family and children usually don’t have children or very little which just simply shows how she is helping to bring about the demographic shift as printed in this news story.

There are some women who have had stillborn pregnancies or have simply been unable to conceive but what percentage of the population is this? I would have to say a very small amount. But how many women in this country that are able to have children putting career before children? Many! As a result you see this demographic shift.

All these women can deny it until the cows come home but that doesn’t make one bit of difference to the reality of what we are seeing today.

How many would you have had if you made your career having children instead of job that took the place of a man?

Are you suggesting that any woman taking a job is putting a man out of work? Sure sounds like it.

1. Classifying "Hispanics" as non-white (when we classify middle easterners as white!) was a big mistake on the part of the Anglos all those years ago. I think it is hysterical how a white Argentinean who share the same exact genetic makeup as I do is classified as a "minority", while I am thrown in with WASPs, Semites, and Persians as part of the "white" majority.

2. Methinks we are going the way of Brazil, with whites (and a few Asians) at the top, browns and whites in the middle, and blacks and browns at the bottom. If said folks are absorbed into the private sector economy, it won't be much of an issue. If the wards of the state grow (whether through the dole or, more commonly, government employment) then we are in real trouble.

and thats not to mention the food stamps

A good friend of mine (also black) and I were in the grocery store (we are both in the healthcare profession) and were discussing the fact that it burns us up to see a lady wearing leather, toting a Coach purse and gold jewelry, buying steaks and shrimp with an EBT (food stamp) card and here we are with coupons and lists and such. I know what you are talking about.

Instead of white women having children they would rather become teachers and exploit them sexually or abort them.

It’s called Affirmative Action. Ever heard of that?

I have a great question for the liberated career ladies out there.

What is the point of men working if women are working, too? And if you women are out there working who is making and taking care of the children? The local day care center? The nanny? The grandparents? What’s the point of having children if you abandon them to one of those alternative methods of raising a child?

Hostility to motherhood is something I have noticed from several Freepers here. I can’t wait until motherhood is revered by all conservatives.

I wish I could find a flaw in your post but there is none, unfortunately things like America, the Constitution, Freedom, Self Determination, I have a dream, etc, etc means absolutely nothing to most minorities and they want no part of it. To them (for lack of better words) "Ethic Pride" trumps all and will always trump all.

Just look at what they are doing to many of our cities and towns, you'd think they be happy to escape whatever S&#@hole they came from, but no, they immediately turn their new home into what they left.

And to make matters even worse, with the emasculation and heapings of PC guilt being done to young white males, we have created a whole generation of whites that will be nothing but lambs to the slaughter

‘You don’t know “jack”’

Another meritless, ad hominem attack with no substance at all. I forget which Alinsky tactic that one is - don’t argue the facts just do character assassination.

[Jack Hydrazine]

“Instead of white women having children they would rather become teachers and exploit them sexually or abort them.”

Another ad hominem attack. I love it.

Let’s see... From all of the reports of sexual exploitation of boys by female teachers most of them are by white women. And how many children have been aborted in this country? Over 50 million! You liberated ladies should be proud of that number.

LOL, not to mention follow them out to the parking lot and they climb into an escalade with the 27” rims.....

i hear ya....we are in the same boat with you.... :)

I’m seeing a lot of modern secular viewpoints toward families being expressed here.

Unfortunately, “modern secular viewpoints” are simply based on lies from the father of lies.

[RockinRight]

Who the hell is hostile to motherhood?

[Clemenza]

I tend to find that, outside of the border counties, third generation Hispanics who use Spanish as their primary language is very rare. Even in the second generation, English is generally used among peers, while using Spanish when talking with elders.

This, btw, is what I have observed from living amongst Colombians in Miami, Mexicans in Chicago, and every Latino nationality imaginable here in New York.

[RockinRight]

OK, let’s solve the problem.

Get married at 18, live in a trailer that is falling apart with 16 kids, chain smoking, working for $8/hr. at Taco Bell, to a wife who 7 years later will go crazy and run you over with her car.

Yeah, that’s much better than what my wife and I did

This is the post-modern era. The more secular and humanist people become the less they value and become hostile toward family, marriage, and children. Even on this conservative website you will still see its ugly influence.

I can’t wait for Conservatives to really go pro-family and start having children in larger numbers. I see the Duggar family of 19 children as being an inspiration for that.

Note: I am not implying that women should have 19 children but having more than two would be great!

[MrB]

Reductio ad absurdum is not a valid argument.

[MrB]

Look around your area for a “family integrated church” and attend a service or two if you want to have a more optimistic outlook on the future of our nation.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Just look at the flaming posts sent in my direction! It’s pretty obvious those ladies like their liberty more than they love children and motherhood.

[Jack Hydrazine]

What is a ‘family integrated church’? Are these churches that aren’t pushing the homosexual agenda and working on encouraging men and women to married and actually have more than one or two children?
