San Antonio Texas, The City Of The Future

[Strike For The South]

Going along with our theme, this article was in the times today

I post this for a couple reasons

1. I gotta rep the hood

2. I think it provides great insight to what the new immagrants will look like in a few generations, most of America is fearing something they shouldn't. That isn't to say I don't have some problems with some of what Castro says (esp what kind of premeium is put on "race" and unfailry painting the Alamo as an Anglo venture) but I have the same problems to the north of me with the German Czechs and Polacks to the north of me. If anything there just lighter skinned Mexicans with better beer and kielbasa.

Point being I think its intresting and everyone should read about San Antonio the greatest city in the world.

“This is the model of what America will look like in other cities. English will be the dominant language. Young Mexican-Americans may display minor symbols of their ethnicity — ‘I eat spaghetti, therefore I’m Italian,’ that sort of thing — but their kids will consider themselves American. We are already your neighbors and fellow workers, and are or soon will be your in-laws.”

That's the ticket. Takes a couple generations, but so far, things work out in less than 60 years, even if grampa fusses about the family being 'invaded'. It's been ever thus.

You realize what the Mexicans do/think of the natives down in the Yucatan don't you?

You realize what the Mexicans do/think of the natives down in the Yucatan don't you?Ouch!

Does this all mean that San Antonio will not turn into some sort of Miami - where one must speak Spanish to be part of the Cosa Nostra that's monopolised local politics?

Spainards are hispanic too, buddy.

[Louis VI the Fat]

I'll roll with my Hispanic brothers spreading civilisation to the shores of America too...

[Megas Methuselah]

Ok, ok, ok, let's just all calm down now.

But the Hispanics of America are, on average, more native than the whites up here. So... yeah.

[Centurion1]

Bro everyone is browner than white Canadians.

[Megas Methuselah]

You ain't mah bro, bro!

[Incongruous]

The Whiter the better.
I too like to make bigoted statements, and role with my Nordic brothers and bring civilization to others.

[Megas Methuselah]

Yes, but Imma gonna win.

[Centurion1]

Yeah dude his people have merely made a tactical retreat soon they will pour out of their fortresses and drive the white invader from the shores of their gods given lands

[Megas Methuselah]

Sounds like you've been reading some Bernard Cornwell. Omg, I can't wait to get that book!

So far, this has been a festival of "my race is the greatest" statements. I'll keep it there by ending the thread, which has wandered away from San Antonio well past the San Marcos line.
