NOT ALL HISPANICS ARE UNDOCUMENTED!

FROM IMMIGRATION DAILY:

A graph entitled “The VDare.com Worker Displacement Index” in a recent Article differentiates between Hispanic employment and non-Hispanic employment and alleges that the difference between these two lines represents American worker displacement. To conclude that all Hispanics are immigrants or take away jobs from Americans is preposterous. Many Hispanics are American-born or naturalized citizens and some are legal immigrants. The undocumented are just one component measured as Hispanic by the Census Bureau. To say that if an American-born Hispanic or a naturalized Hispanic displaces an “American worker” when employed is ridiculous. The only correct conclusion that one can draw from the assumptions made in this graph is that it represents open xenophobia in that all Hispanics are considered as un-American. We regret that many in the general press refer to such xenophobes as “anti-illegal advocates”. As the nomenclature on this graph shows, these advocates are anti-immigration advocates and are hiding behind the fig leaf of “anti-illegal”. Let’s call a spade a spade.
