I dont see the asian culture (that also has a very big presence here now) causing near the problems. The majority of people here arrested for "gang" activity are not black or asian...they are hispanic.
If you want to define me as "racist" because the facts support that its the illegal hispanics causing the problems then be my guest...but you'd be wrong.

If you want to avoid being branded as racist then you should be more precise in your wording.
Either you are saying that the problem is the hispanics, or that the problem is the illegals. Which is it? If you are saying hispanic people are the problem, then that is in fact racist. You can make all the excuses and justifications you want, but if you brand one specific race as the cause of problems, you are being racist.
If, however, you mean the ILLEGAL immigrants are the problem, no matter where they come from, then you should avoid calling them hispanics. There are plenty of hispanics here who are here legally. Lumping them in with the illegals is not only asinine, but also racist.
Perhaps instead of getting angry, you should clarify your position.
