When is the last time you saw an Amish gang-banger?
Oops, we’re courting minorities... forgot.
Boring White guys built this country...
Exactly
I don’t see a lot of Hispanic panhandlers, but I see a lot of them lined out the door of the local welfare office, in public housing, and pulling out the EBT Food Stamp cards to pay for food for their truckload of anchor babies in tow.
Ironically, I have also learned that the white dude begging for change on the streets has no clue what kind of social services he may be entitled to.
I do volunteer work, so I come in contact with these folks all the time.
If the illegals weren’t sucking up all the public resources, then maybe there wouldn’t be Americans begging on the streets.
Put that on a bumper sticker.
This. For a minority that's (purportedly, at any rate) "culturally conservative," an inordinate number certainly do seem both practiced AT and eager TO BE living la vida liberal, lifestyle-wise.
(... and we won't get into the whole "how 'conservative' can your preferred sub-group genuinely be -- culturally or otherwise -- when so many millions upon millions of same knowingly and enthusiastically violate multiple federal laws in arriving here, to begin with...?" thing.)
I guess his "friend" has never been near a welfare office, or near an EBT checkout, or near a Home Depot.
What's wrong with that? I never go near a welfare office or EBT "checkout" either. However, I can't fault the people hanging out near Home Depot. At least they are looking to work for their money, I don't consider them panhandlers at all.
The truth you speak is there. One only need to look at the illegal hispanic mamas pushing the carts containing their anchor babies down the street en masse to the local grocery store where they’ll redeem their WICs certificates, spend their TANF money with their EBT card.
All this while their ‘husbands’ are out standing by the local gas station to get $10/hour pay for which he’ll pay NO taxes. When he falls off a roof, the ambulance will take him to the emergency room where you and I will pay the bill.
I lived in San Diego for 30 years. Yes there are Hispanic panhandlers and I’m not talking about the ones lined up on El Camino Real in the mornings looking for day laborer Jobs.
I’ve seen more Hispanic panhandlers than black panhandlers — but white panhandlers are the more prevalent.
I have never ever seen an Asian panhandler
The hardest working guys I ever saw were Latino waiters in some of the Manhattan restaurants where I used to work. These guys worked like dogs. One guy worked a full month of doubles and this was on his feet, every day, uptempo, dealing with the public, moving the whole time. He was exhausted, but he kept going. I did the same thing, but only for short periods of time.
In all my years in NYC, I’ve never seen a Hispanic panhandler. Never thought about it before. Only whites and blacks do it, I guess.
Joan,
How about we start this debate in December, 2012 - rather than August?
I was held up at gunpoint by a hispanic. Yeah, they are pillars of society. Yeah, one can generalize about an entire non-race (hispanics can be any race according to the govt).
That was sarcasm, in case people can’t tell. Hispanics like Sikhs and muslims, built this country. That is sarcasm too.

Obama keeps letting them into the U.S.A. . This is why Americans are begging on the street as immigrants have taken any jobs that are available.
This has to stop.
