This should actually serve as a warning to Americans since most “hispanics” are illegals or the result of illegal immigration and are simply wanting to arm legally or illegally to defend their criminality. This is as bad as letting members of Islamic cult and Antifa buy and possess guns. It won’t end well.

“...since most “hispanics” are illegals or the result of illegal immigration...”

Oops! Your statement is not even close to the truth, FRiend.

In 2016, Hispanics accounted for 18% of the nation’s population and were the second-largest racial or ethnic group behind whites.

(https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/09/18/how-the-u-s-hispanic-population-is-changing/)

US population in 2016 was 565 million.

(http://worldpopulationreview.com/continents/north-america-population/)

That means there are 101 million hispanics in the US.

There were 10.5 million illegal immigrants in the US in 2017.

(https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/06/12/5-facts-about-illegal-immigration-in-the-u-s/)

If every illegal immigrant was Hispanic (it’s actually closer to half), that would mean that around 10% of the Hispanic population is illegal.

I’m not saying this is a good thing, but let’s keep it real.

Talk about missing the forest for the trees? I submit your post for Dumbest Internet Comment Of The Day. Congratulations.

A great number of Hispanic Texans have ancestry that goes back many generations on this land (~1700s-early 1800s). They are descended from Mexicans who became US citizens when Texas joined the US. ...Many are still ranchers/farmers on the lands of their ancestors.
