Or they don’t assimilate at all. And don’t care too.

They want to turn the Southwest and California into the same piece of crap that glorious Mehico is.

Love the ‘anti-immigrant’ smear they have in the first line.
It would be correct to say ‘anti-ILLEGAL’ instead, or “Pro-LAWFUL immigration”.

I didn’t see any assimilation in this article at all.

Latinos are assimilating, but in their own way

lol...."in their own way?" Refusing to learn English (they're here in such large numbers that they don't have to), waving Mexican flags at immigration protests, booing the U.S. national anthem at U.S. vs. Mexico sporting events, and calling for the "re"-establishment of the state of Aztan in the American Southwest isn't assimilating in any way.

Send 'em all back to beloved Meh-hee-co.

the perception that Latinos are too different to assimilate, do not learn English, and are unraveling the fabric of the identity of a nation that was, ironically, created by immigrants.

This is a damned lie!! I will not be branded a ‘racist’ for trying to PROMOTE Legal immigration. (There are many latinos that do not like ILLEGAL immigrations either)

I’m amused by their use of wording.
I’m all for immigration as long as it is legal.
Why the left and the media have this mental hangup on the word illegal is beyond me.

Press "1" for English, "2" for Spanish. Even the SS Administration issues the Board of Trustees' Annual Report in Spanish. This is outrageous for a USG agency.

I would say that we are adjusting to their terms, not the other way around.

Other than a now and then taco, and jumping beans, I am puzzled as to what benefit it would be to assimilate any part of Latino culture. I do not wish to live impoverished, and surrounded by birthing teens that quit school to better experience their corrupt immoral little corner of America.

I would do my part to provide illegals and non-assimilators a compass pointing south.

Latinos are assimilating, but in their own way, keeping much of their identity.

Yeah, this is their "identity." It's things like flying the Mexican flag, stomping on and burning the American flag, taking American flags down and raising the Mexican flag in it's place, wearing bandannas, singing the Mexican national anthem, booing at American soccer players, shouting down anyone who protests against them, refusing to speak English, expanding MS-13 and other gangs, rapists, child molesters, drug dealers, pedophiles, murderers, criminals and the list goes on.

We've got a good look into the culture of Mexico. If we don't stop them, we will become Mexico! They don't want to assimilate. Why should they? elPresidente Boosh wants to give them citizenship with NO strings attached.

In an essay published in the Los Angeles Times, Jiménez said that due to Latinos, “multiculturalism and the appreciation of diversity are much more accepted than before.”

If you’re not going to assimilate, you have no business being here.

“Dual loyalties to the San Diego Chargers and Guadalajara Chivas. The Fourth of July. Cinco de Mayo”

What a dopey article...a choice of sports team has nothing to do with assimilation..

Why wouldnt new comers to our country celebrate the Fourth of July? It’s as American as apple pie..That day is the heart and soul of our nation...

The author needs to get assimmilated...and fast...

They’re not assimilating. They’re demanding that the rest of America become more Hispanic, not the other way around.

They do not have to assimulate. They are taking over. The Anglo exhibits zero power of resistance.
