Walk into my neighborhood school and you will think you are in Asia. The schools have become majority Hmong.

At least 80% of the school children receive free breakfast and lunch.

Strange...I've always known the Hmong to be hardworking, self-sufficient people, and a fairly wealthy community nationally.

I might pay more heed to this line of complaint, if I couldn't go back and read very similar complaints from a century ago (and 130 years ago before that) complaining of all them damned poor folks coming over from Southern and Eastern Europe and Ireland.

Did they get food stamps, section 8, medical asssistance, home owner assistance, government material written in their language?

Maybe you might pay more heed if you lived next door to the 'new immigrants'. I have seen them destroy neighborhoods that they do not belong in because they didn't work to get there. They are not assimilated and our tax money put them there. Take a look and you'll see houses with doors off of the hinge, dirt for front yards, garbage all over, littering on other people's property, seven or eight loud cars coming and going every minute of the day.

We are losing a neighbor right now due to the two Hmong families on our block.

This is what people do when you give them things they didn't work for and are not ready to assume responsibility for.

To say that the Hmong people are hardworking is stereotyping and racist.

Actually, we've got plenty of illegals from Ireland up here in New York. They're largely ignorant, belligerent, and alcoholics. No doctors in this crowd, but plenty of bartenders and busboys.
