Depends on what kind of Latin American.

Cuban-Americans are FAR different politically than your average Mexican immigrant, for example.

It boils down to loyalty and WHY an immigrant decides to come here. If you come here to BECOME American, fine.

If you come here to simply live in segregated Spanish-speaking communities, trashing and refusing to accept our culture all the while cheering on La Raza and taking OUR money, laughing all the way to the bank in Mexico, then yes, I have a problem with that.

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.
