well, if anybody knows anything about los angeles, hispanics now consitute over 55% of the entire population of LA. Seeing the mexican flag above the US flag really burns my ass.
When my parents came to this country in the early 50's from europe, they demanded of themselves that they become Americans. That meant learning English as fast as possible, becoming members of society.
LA has become such a hodgepoge of so many different cultures it is almost impossible to know where you are at some times.
Glendale has the largest armenian population outside of armenmia, Iranians are here in an ernourmous amount, More Koreans here than outside of korea, More than a million filipinos, Russians by the million,
and of course mexicans, san salvadorans, guatelmala, all central america, even a ton of peruvians.
and few if any of them make an effort to become part of mainstream america.
Last, dont forget asians. more vietnamese here than outside of vietnam, cambodians, etc.
Bottom line i want out of LA. period.
