"New research by political scientists concludes that available data does not appear to support the claim that Hispanic immigration poses a threat to American identity. Among the key findings of this study are that Hispanics acquire English and lose Spanish rapidly beginning in the 2nd generation; appear to be as religious and at least as committed to the work ethic as native-born whites; and largely reject a purely ethnic identification and exhibit levels of patriotism equal to native-born whites by the 3rd generation."

Hispanic Immigration Not a Threat
While Minute-idiots line the border the truth puts lie to their thinly-disguised racism.

The current situation with Immigration in the United States is very frustrating. It is clear that the Immigration system in this country is broken and needs some immediate improvements and changes. Policy changes are still pending. Meanwhile, we see that anti-immigration measures are being enforced in the recent raids of companies by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE). The USCIS has informed the public of its intent to increase (and in some cases double) the filing fees for Immigration procedures. And, even the Naturalization exam is being changed.
The new pilot test for citizenship is a lot more difficult now. It is questionable whether US citizens would even pass the test. It is still a pilot test however, which means that applicants have the discretion to opt out of taking it. They can choose to take the previous exam. Go to the Immigration Test website for sample questions of the new pilot immigration test and the previous citizenship test. On that site you will also find free information about visas, how to obtain a US Green Card through a family petition or employment, among other important matters.
