I don’t know much about SanFran, but I know that it is rare here to run into a Hispanic/Latino who is not Caucasian-almost all of us are. Latinos who are black have roots in the Caribbean-Cuba, Puerto Rico, etc-or one of a few areas in Central and South America, and most of the Asian ones are from the Philippines. Is it that different in Cali?

And why does it matter in any case-why are people there that obsessed with who moves into their neighborhoods as long as they aren’t gang bangers and criminals?

Had a neighbor once that had to move but couldn’t sell his house due to the market back in the early 80’s. That and the loan had a big penalty inorder to pay it off early.

He was out of town but we let him know about the ‘renters’. Turns out there were over twenty people living in his house.

Good post. Let’s look at it from a different perspective.
For example.

50% of Mexican heritage in Chicagoland are PAN, the party of traditional Catholics and small businessmen ... and a rare libertarian.

40% of Mexican heritage in Chicagoland are PRI, the party of corruption where big government is required to spread the corruption to so many.

8% are PRD and those are split between liberation theology Catholics and aetheists, although it is impossible to tell which is which.

2% are none of the above.

The same with those from India. Half are the party of Mordi, seeking to move towards less corruption and more capitalism. Half just want to know where to pay the bribe to keep the health inspector off their back at the quickie mart.

The same with Puerto Ricans. 49% are Republicans for statehood (albeit many are RINOS). 49% are Democrats for colonialism. 2% are for indpendence of which half are alligned with the FALN and half with the PSP.

A group can be sliced and diced many different ways.

In Mexico the big race divide is between the minority who are of European, and the majority who are part or wholly American Indian descent. They consider Indian and mestizos a separate race, hence Columbus Day is The Day of the Race (La Raza), because it was the start of the mixed race. “Hispanic” is clearly not a race. Filipinos are “Hispanic”, and obviously are not Euro, African or American Indian. Racially classifying people as “Hispanic” is absurd.
