The Mexicans are moving in?


They may not all be Mexican but they’re definitely making a foothold. Ideal Market is always packed, and if you go to the PoPaletas ice cream store next door at night, you’ll forget you’re on Gardere. Nothing but families hanging out, taking the kids out for ice cream.

It ain’t Mayberry but it’s definitely starting to feel better over there

A good portion of them are in fact not Mexicans. There are many from Honduras and Ecuador that come across the border with Mexico.

Hondurans make up most of whom is in the NOLA area, although I have been coming across more and more Cubans lately

Wrong. They do those jobs for much lower pay than Americans regardless of race. That’s a problem. They pack in 3-4 families to a low priced dwelling splitting the bills 4 ways, then sending the remaining back to family in Mexico. Meanwhile American families need to be paid more than Latinos because we raise our families one to a household and split the bills one way. This kills our economy.

Please use the proper pronoun to describe Hispanics. They are to be called LatinX people if you haven’t noticed. The Biden Administration has told you over and over again to use the term LatinX to describe people of Hispanic origin.

The political influence in 20-30-40 years from now will be massive as Hispanics continue to quietly take out African American political influence by the hour. The Democrats picked the wrong demographic to back over the other.

Hispanics vote Democrat more than republican as a demographic. Until this changes people will continue to say this.

Everybody likes to blame Californians for making texas less red but it’s just as likely to be the growing population of Hispanics. From all data I have seen, people who move from California to texas vote republican more than democrat. People who are Hispanic vote Democrat more than republican. These are facts backed by data.

In certain counties in south texas that are 90-100% Hispanic they DO seem to be moving right as biden got far less votes than Hillary did. Even with this being the case, in the 2020 election most Hispanics in texas still voted Democrat. If this shifts, which could feasibly happen, then democrats may never win another election again.

This is a good point I like to make to liberals. If they care so much about Americans making a “living wage” then why do they want a bunch of illegals to come in and undercut the Americans, sometimes even making less than minimum wage (they are already off the books, so it’s rather easy to do this).

America needs to sit down and have a serious talk. Unless conservatives are willing to pay their workers more then you will see more illegals coming here. This is all fine and dandy but they or their kids will be able to vote one day and as of now, if only Hispanics could vote in America then democrats would win every election. Not to mention the changing of American culture.

The best solution is to bring all the jobs that we have made in China and put them in Latin America. We will have to pay slightly more for our goods, but it will help their economies which means less of them will ultimately be coming here.

They do work their butts off. Right now I’m staring at 20 of them roofing the show barn at Burton. Yesterday, one came out of his candy apple mustang in a Michael Myers mask.

No, but are you assuming black and white Americans don’t either? Only Latinos? Racist much?

You don't hear about too many shootings in Gardere anymore. Wonder if the Hispanic influx has quieted things over there.

Same as other immigrant communities, if they don’t better themselves/ adapt to the two cultures then we have a problem. I’ve seen it all to often as a 1st generation American. I love this damn country.

I don’t have to assume anything. I’ve seen it first hand. You typically find blacks doing brick work.

You’d much rather have Hispanics move into a specific area like this who contribute to the economy as opposed to the ghetto, shite culture who do nothing but lay around all day and collect Government checks.
