I assumed that Hispanic Americans already outnumber other ethnic groups in California. The proximity to Mexico and the constant flow of new immigrants from all over the world seeking jobs in major urban centres would seem to suggest so.


Something like what happened in Miami, I suppose.

So that's why California voted against gay marriage in a referendum? Well, I don't have any sympathy for California whites, so overall I'm happy with this for one reason: liberals getting hoisted by their own petard, bringing in millions of brown people from strongly Catholic countries in order to supplant largely-secular whites.

I'm all for liberals getting their just desserts, but you have something against "brown" people, guy?

Not any more than brown people usually have against white ones or black ones.

No, though I really like messing with them. They need a good shake-up every now and then, or they'll get complacent in their smug world view.

You know what makes liberals smug? It's actually the same thing that tends to make atheists smug.

It's that they get a false sense of superiority by the quality of their typical opponents.

True - but only because it's those who have nothing to lose who can go against them in public.
If I spoke out in public about my views, I'd be in serious trouble career-wise.

I await your evidence of a conspiracy by California liberals to import millions brown people in order to supplant largely-secular whites with baited breath.

No one has anything to loose on the internet. The above still holds true. The opposition simply cannot muster effective rhetoric 90% of the time.

Though I don't agree with him, I doubt he means an actual conspiracy. Rather just that advocating for relaxed immigration policies has had the unintentional side effect of doing that.

How? Not wanting certain races to have unofficial privileges in society is equality.

Of course it's not a cabal-type conspiracy. But as you can see from the responses in this thread, there seems to be either a positive or a neutral attitude to this, with a lot of people celebrating this development. People here seem to be happy that whites will be outnumbered by Latinos, and I'm just stating that I'll be happy to see their other causes opposed by the people they applauded as they were coming in.

This. Like how most Muslims in Europe seem to have a very strong dislike for homosexuals and drugs.
There's a type of irony in it - the people they support tend to oppose the policies they support.

Eh, I don't care much either way, just wondering is all. Whites and darker shaded people all still share humanity's inherent pettiness and willful ignorance.

That would be true for many conservatives if you switched the places of "support" and "oppose". The immigrants some conservatives oppose tend to support their social policies.
