I fear you’re right.
I was in Safeway the other day, in a small retirement community in Oregon, and I suddenly realized that I was the only guy in that store area speaking English, everyone else, maybe six families, was Hispanic and speaking Spanish.
This wasn’t L.A., Texas, NM or Arizona, it was heretofore lily-white Oregon.
Makes no difference to me what nationality they are, but what matters to me is that I don’t ever see them becoming Americans, learning our history and loving our constitutional ideals.
My girlfriend’s grandparents came over here from Sicily, went through Ellis Island, they had to learn English, pass a test on America and swear allegiance to us...I honestly cannot see recent Hispanic immigrants to America doing that, and THAT will cost us the Republic, I’m afraid...
