Statistics on 'Hard-Workin' Immigrants?

Question

Is True ? The vast majority of illegal immigrants in America are Mexican, who were once proverbial for laziness and crime, but now are championed by the liberal media (NY Times) and neoconservative media (Wall Street Journal) as hard-working Americans.




Statistics, however, show otherwise. A recent study by the Pew Hispanic Center reveals the following:
(1) Hispanics are 3 times more likely than non-Hispanics to receive welfare

(2) Hispanics account for 3/4 of the increase in poverty in the USA

(3) 45% of Hispanic children are born out of wedlock

(4) Hispanic women are 2.54 times more likely to than white women to have abortions

(5) Hispanic men are 9 times more likely than white men to beat their partners

(6) Hispanics are 3 times more likely than whites to die of AIDS

(7) They are 4 times more likely to die of tuberculosis

(8) Hispanics are 2 times more likely to be incarcerated than non-Hispanics

(9) They are 3.8 times more likely to be in prison for murder than non-Hispanics

(10) Hispanic youth are 19 times more likely to be in gangs

(11) Hispanics are 3 times more likely than non-Hispanics to drop out of high school

(12) 55% of Mexican-Americans consider themselves to be Mexican first

Answer 1

The statistics by the Pew Hispanic Center do not surprise me at all!

Answer 2

Just so you all know you have to be a naturalized citizen for 7 years, before you can even be considered for welfare. You all should be ashamed of yourself, whoever you are that is being raciest. Get to know the facts, don't be so close minded. All of you relatives were immigrants, so what is the difference? Bye the way when you say Mexicans are Hispanic you are wrong that includes all of the people in south America!!!! Not all of them are bad Mexicans or People from south or Central America. You should know the people first and then judge them. This is America remember we all have freedom of speech, you have no right to judge us for speaking our mind.

Answer 3

On any given Friday or Saturday night, I jail at least 3 drunk driving illegal meskins. INS wont even take them after they break the law unless I got 10 to 15 at once. This is a problem.

Answer 4

properly....Sunday is a "day of relax" for me....as is Saturday, for that remember....despite the fact that particularly most of the time whilst i'm meant to be "workin' not hardship-free", i've got faith as though i'm somewhat "hardly workin'". i'm hoping that makes some experience! lol

Answer 5

Funny, this dude hides behind a name like Jose...jajaja... then he starts talking about Mexicans & then goes on a rant about Hispanics, then he ends with Mexicans again. I guess Hispanics and Mexicans are the same to Jose...Here are some more stats, White men are 75% more likely to be serial killers than Hispanics, White kids are 70% more likely to use Ritalin than Hispanic kids, White women are 68% more likely to cheat on their husbands, than Hispanic women, White men are 85% more likely to pick up a rifle and murder innocent people than Hispanic males. JOSE 100% scared of the latin wave thats coming to a town near you.

Answer 6

I hope these statistics are considered valid. If so, I'm really not surprised. Does anyone in the upper echelons of Government ever read these statistics? This information should be distributed to citizens of the USA, as well as government representatives.

Answer 7

Hey Al two words; identity theft

Answer 8

I'm speechless.....why so much hatred toward Mexicans? You are targeting the wrong people. How dare you calling them lazy? They put the American workers to shame and make a fraction their salaries. Gees, get a grip and stop the bull...t.

Answer 9

I have a lot of Mexican friends but I do believe your numbers are close to correct.

Answer 10

Yeah, I read that too, when I did a paper in college. Post your link so the pro criminals won't have any reason to call you a liar. You know they will.
