Nearly half in top 5 U.S. cities don’t speak English at home, record 67 million

Nearly half of the residents in the nation’s five biggest cities do not speak English at home, choosing instead their native language, according to the latest Census Bureau data that details the impact of a decade of soft immigration policies.

Overall, a record 67 million do not speak English at home, said the bureau. That is nearly double in 27 years.

In its just-released analysis of the Census data, the Center for Immigration Studies said, “As a share of the population, 21.8 percent of U.S. residents speak a foreign language at home — roughly double the 11 percent in 1980.”

The Center added, “In America's five largest cities, 48 percent of residents now speak a language other than English at home. In New York City and Houston it is 49 percent; in Los Angeles it is 59 percent; in Chicago it is 36 percent; and in Phoenix it is 38 percent.”

These people don't share our language, culture, ethics...nothing. They're only here for the money and freebees. We are screwed!

Or, many do not speak it in public.

Or, at work ...in break rooms.

A big thank you to the successive President pre-Trump who have caused this.

We are no longer a Nation

67 million have to go back then.

I guarantee at least 40 million are illegals.

No more “melting pot.” These people are only in this country to get money, by working or stealing. They have nothing in common with us. That’s why one Indian gets a H1B visa and imports 90 of his relatives in chain migration, thus changing our country into his country.

The big cities are becoming cesspools and are going to get worse. Pretty soon we will have to put walls around the cities too

We are being colonized.

Our government has been encouraging it.

BOTH parties.

[I guarantee at least 40 million are illegals.]

You may be correct. 30 million wouldn’t surprise me one bit, for sure.

At 75% liberal on my number, that translates to potentially 22.5 million illegal votes for Democrat.

Enough to sway every election. Illegally. /at the risk of being redundant

Whatever the ACTUAL numbers are, one can see why Democrats want to ABOLISH ICE. It will be the end of them. /not that we all didn’t know that already

Of course. Kept in a linguistic prison, unable to participate in the wider debate. Spoon fed propaganda in their native tongues.

I am of the opinion that a Constitutional amendment should be passed to require all legal document be printed in English, allow other languages but when there is a doubt or conflict, the English shall be the only language for legal purposes.

Correct. Don't forget to thank the Bush crime family, the Clinton crime family and all the swamp dwelling parasites in DC too.

I stopped at the grocery store near my house at about 5pm the other night. I don't normally go at this time, I usually go during the day and it's all SAHMs or retirees from the surrounding area.

Holy hella. It was Tower of Babel. I don't even know where these people are coming from. It was every corner of the globe it seemed and it seemed they just got here yesterday.

We are in a lot, a lot, of trouble.

=======================

All true. They are trying to eradicate us, exterminate us, and so far they are succeeding.

“The big cities are becoming cesspools and are going to get worse. Pretty soon we will have to put walls around the cities too”

The larger problem is that they, with one man one vote, and the Census counting non-citizens, will very soon take complete control of the country. Only a Civil War will be able to fix the problem, and even that is iffy!
