    A blatant falsehood.

    For someone who lives around NYC, you sure have to ignore a lot of stuff to construct your worldview...
    I've never heard of anyone being jumped by roving white youths where I'm from. That may be different in other areas of the country. I have been reading about lower rates of crime for first generation immigrants to be fair, but violent crime rates double that of the white population for 2nd generation Hispanics. I'm not sure what to think. Most of the crime problems where I come from black youths rather than immigrants, whose rate of violent crime is somewhere on the order of 4-6x the rate of whites, but Eastern European criminal activity is crazy in NYC, but most of it is fraud related.

    I like the kinds of Hispanic immigrants that we get here on LI. They are generally hard working and great. I hear that it is much worse in areas bordering Mexico.

    None of my friends have ever been in jail. Ever. In fact, none of them have even been pregnant before getting married which is even wielded. But a few of them have had their asses kicked by minorities, so my personal anecdote is worth something to me.
