Marco Gutierrez, the founder of the Latinos for Trump group, was a guest on MSNBC Thursday night on All In With Chris Hayes and issued a stern warning for America’s future.

What a b*tch! In what may be the lowest level this chick has sunk to post-election, Ann Coulter may have just dug her own grave. According to The Huffington Post , good ‘ole Ann needs to do some fact checking before she opens that mouth of hers again: The conservative pundit penned a column Wednesday in which she lashed out at the “deluge of unskilled immigrants pouring into the country” and portrayed Latinos as a lazy “underclass” looking for a government handout. Coulter titles the piece “America Nears El Tipping Pointo,” presumably to make a virtue of her ignorance of the Spanish language. In fact, Latinos use less than their fair share of government benefits. According to a study released this year by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities: Non-Hispanic whites accounted for 64 percent of the population in 2010 and received 69 percent of the entitlement benefits. In contrast, Hispanics made up 16 percent of the population but received 12 percent of the benefits, less than their proportionate share — likely because they are a younger population and also because immigrants, including many legal immigrants, are ineligible for various benefits. Coulter implies in her piece that non-whites are “nitwits who deserve lives of misery and joblessness.” She singles out immigrants from Latin America as particularly “nitwitty,” saying they have too many babies out of wedlock, without citing a published source for the assertion. Nearly half of undocumented-immigrant households — 45 percent — consisted of a spouse or cohabiting couple with one or more children, compared to 34 percent of legal immigrants and 21 percent of the U.S. born, according to a 2010 Pew Hispanic Study. Apparently unaware that Latinos do not depend disproportionately on government benefits, Coulter writes: That’s a lot of government dependents coming down the pike. No amount of “reaching out” to the Hispanic community, effective “messaging” or Reagan’s “optimism” is going to turn Mexico’s underclass into Republicans … Rather than being more hardworking than American, Hispanics actually work about the same as others, or, in the case of Hispanic women, less. Wow! Pure hate…SMH. Images via WENN
Is this woman single-handedly bringing down the value of posh Los Angeles homes with her ‘Star Map’ shenanigans??? Her name is Linda Welton, and she was on the corner of Sunset and Carolwood Drive long before Michael Jackson arrived. She remembers well the days when he stood on a balcony of the rented chateau-style mansion and tossed autographed pillows to screaming fans. She remembers that he ordered pizzas for them and that his father, Joe Jackson, would come visiting but wouldn’t be let in. She also remembers the hordes that descended in June 2009, when Jackson died on the eve of his comeback concert tour. …A third-generation purveyor of the dishy tourist maps, Welton has good reason to be skittish. The owners of the mansion, fashion executive Hubert Guez and his wife, Roxanne, have taken her to court. The homeowners filed suit in June, calling Welton’s Star Maps business “a highly visible eyesore” and charging that she is tanking their property value. They are asking a judge for an injunction kicking the Star Maps lady off the corner. A hearing has been set for October 11 before Judge Gerald Rosenberg in Santa Monica, according to the court file. Welton’s family has sold Star Maps from the corner since the 1930s — long before such things as tour buses, paparazzi and TMZ. They survived past attempts to shut them down or make them move. And Welton has long been a Michael Jackson fan — so much so that she traveled the 90 minutes to Santa Barbara a dozen times to attend his 2005 child molestation trial. She celebrated when he was acquitted. Although she may be a nuisance to the neighbors, Melton is not a money-hungry, celeb-stalker out to harrass people. She’s stil a huge fan enraptured with MJ and his music. When speaking about the Jackson’s mansion where she sits selling her ‘Star Maps’ she says: “It came alive in a way no other place came alive through the years of map selling or that kind of thing,” she says. “It’s Tourist Central. Really, nobody lived there except Sean Connery, a while ago.” The fans came because Jackson engaged them, she said. And then there was the live music that poured out of the house every time Jackson practiced in his studio, which was often. “We all heard the music that came out from behind those walls,” Welton said. “So a lot of fans would park their cars here. They were trying to hear the music, but they didn’t really tell a whole lot of people because they didn’t want Michael to stop playing. So we had the time of our lives. This was actually the biggest thrill we’ll ever have. The music was absolutely beautiful.” The bougie a$$ white folks neighbors in the community contend that Melton is nothing but a pain in the cakes. “It is unpleasant and inconvenient to constantly be forced to navigate illegally stopped traffic in front of the plaintiffs’ home and to be daily and frequently forced to view defendant’s business activity,” the lawsuit states. The couple is trying to sell the mansion and, the lawsuit charges, Welton’s presence is hurting their chances. “The property is made unattractive,” the suit charges. “Potential buyers are bothered upon approach by the quite visible and annoying constant illegal stopping and/or parking of cars in front of the home that would otherwise be on a quiet residential street.” Melton say’s her family has been sued several times over the years. However the Supreme Court of California’s 1978 decision that ruled a city ordinance unconstitutional helped them maintain a family business that has prospered for over 40 years. What do you think of Ms. Melton and her business? Is she infringing on the rights of the the homeowners in the neighborhood or just living the American dream?? Source
Damn the ‘Tino’s are selling out. SMH. The Ethnicity vs. Race issue is rearing up again thanks to the latest census data which shows whites are up by 6% thanks to Latinos who identify as such. The white population in the U.S. is growing – thanks to Hispanics. So say the latest census figures, which found a big jump in the number of Hispanics who listed themselves as white on the 2010 census forms. Those forms specifically stated that Hispanic is an ethnicity, not a race. The result was a sudden six percent increase in white Americans. “It really surprises me, that is a significant shift,” said Claudio Remeseira, a Columbia University professor and editor of “Hispanic New York: A Sourcebook.” “In general, most Latinos tend to think of themselves as white. But the issue of how Latinos identify themselves by race has always been complicated.” For example, most Dominican immigrants – even dark-skinned Dominicans – would say they are white “because they have historically perceived themselves as not black” like their neighbors in Haiti, Remeseira said. In all, the number of people in the “white alone” category jumped by 12.1 million over the last decade to 223.6 million, the census showed. Whites now represent 72% of the U.S. population and account for nearly half of the total population increase since 2000. Take out the Hispanics, however, and whites account for 64% of the population, according to the figures. They were 69% of the population just a decade ago. Hispanics continue to be the nation’s fastest growing group. The percentage that identified themselves as white jumped in the past decade from 48% to 53%. The portion that marked “some other race” dropped from 42% to 37%. Also, for the first time, the largest group of multiracial Americans are like President Obama – half black, half white. “There is no question that racial lines are blurring in the United States, said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution. “Strong gains in interracial marriages and higher mixed-race identification among youth suggest that past racial categories will need to be radically changed or even dispensed with in the next two or three decades.” This race business is so tricky isn’t it? And crazy how the Haiti vs. DR issue immediately comes up. Do you see nothing wrong with Latinos identifying as White, or do you think it’s just plain ol’ denial? Source
