Maria Burford lives in the United States but it doesn't feel that way to her. In shops and restaurants, the clerks speak to her in Spanish, although she doesn't understand a word. Her neighbors all speak Spanish, too, and they make her feel like a foreigner. It's not simply that she has trouble communicating; it's how they treat her. ''They come up to me, and when I don't speak Spanish, they give me a little attitude," she says.

Burford can't wait to leave Miami, which she, her husband, and their 13-month-old son plan on doing in a few years as soon as their condominium appreciates in value. They won't be alone. More than 100,000 whites have left in the past decade and continue to leave.

This is the reality of life in Miami for many whites, who are referred to by the city's dominant Hispanic population -- and increasingly by themselves -- as Anglos. It is a Miami where business is conducted in Spanish, menus are in Spanish, the most popular radio and television stations are broadcast in Spanish, and the dominant political class speaks Spanish.

The racial makeup of the city is 66.62% White, 22.31% African American, 0.22% Native American, 0.66% Asian, 0.04% Pacific Islander, 5.42% from other races, and 4.74% from two or more races. 65.76% of the population are Latino of any race. 11.83% of the population are non-Hispanic whites.

Oh my God. :eek: And despite the dubious categories of the U.S census I am pretty sure the lion's share of that 65.76% latino population (!!!) is mestizo rather than ethnically european.

Part of my current job(that I hate) is to call people that are late or have failed to pay the money that is owed to the company that I work for and it is unbelievable to me how many spics I come across on a daily basis, usually that cannot speak a word of English.

A male aquaintance(who I would classify as basically a wigger)who claims not to be "racist" in any way(and often yells at me about my "views" ) has been bitching a lot recently about all of the hispanics and signs in Spanish in his area of Minneapolis. He has even used such words as wetback.:222:

The spics continue to come and are everywhere. They are soon, if not already in some areas, becoming a worse(in number and otherwise) problem than the niggers.

I live in Fort Lauderdale and visit Miami on a regular basis quite often, and will side with you on much of what you have said. But I can't understand just what you mean, when you say that the most popular radio and television stations are broadcast in spanish. Are you refering to spanish stations? Because T.V. stations such as channels 2, 4, 6, 7, and 10, are all broadcast in english. Even the Neil Rogers show on WQAM is in english. And if you live in Miami, you certainly know who the Jewish queer Neil Rogers is.

Miami has the small mercy of having most of its hispanics being anti castro right wing anti communist Cubans( not so much the ones Carter let in en masse) rather then South America's rejects...

The first wave of Cuban migrants were in fact mostly the higher socio-political class in Cuba that had to flee the Bolshevist revolution. As in most South American countries, such classes normally are pretty much "white". This is the core of the Cuban community. Later more economical migrants tend to be of lower classes and more...err...brown.
I lived for 5 years around Miami and can say that even these white cubans now flee a rapidly deteriorating mud city which is getting overrun now by Haitian masses.
All in all it only prooves that as the migrant quote raises so it lowers the chances of any type of integration. Cubans in Miami just do not need anymore to integrate. La Havana is basically already in Miami. Why would you have to learn English? Its basic and it happens everywhere where migrants of a given nationality have reached a certain critical mass. In Spain Morrocans in certain areas have already their ghettos set up with their own grocery shops, telefon booths, bars, etc...They do not need Spanish anymore.

Yes, at least you don't see that in Europe, our beloved immigrants learn our respective countries language.

The only time I really get annoyed is when they have jobs dealing with the public and can't speak English. Even then, though that might not even be too bad since I know this irritates the hell out of a lot of people. Other than that, it is a good thing that they Isolate themselves by not learning the language and not properly "assimilating"

When I have to deal with them at work and they can't speak English it is easy enough to just hang up on them. At a similar job that I had when I was quite a bit younger I told my manager(one day in a particularily bad mood) that when I saw a hispanic name that I was going to refuse to call them, since it was pointless. I thought there would be issues with that, but they were fine with it.

I'm surprised a very liberal newspaper like the Boston Globe would call non-hispanics "white." Hell, what they should be writing about anyway is how Framingham (15 miles from Boston) is rapidly becoming all Brazilian, at least the south end.

Though this may be a step up from the Puerto Ricans who used to live there, come to think of that, at least the PRs are all here legally.

I thought it was already...

Which explains why its mysteriously getting safer in spite of this( as anything is preferable to Puerto Ricans except perhaps Wahabbi muslims).

I'm surprised because English isn't that hard to learn, it is perhaps even one of the "easier" language on earth. Plus when you're in an English speaking country surrounded by Anglo-Saxon people, it must not take a long while to know at least the basic words. It is just a matter of motivation.

They have no desire to learn anything. A lot of them think they are going to take over. And of course they have everyone catering to them and all kinds of shit they may need is printed in Spanish, along with every other language you can think of. Hmong is another big one here.:rolleyes:

The craziest shit is the fact that some cities now have Spanish as their official language. Fuck these spics.

About once or twice a year I fly down to Florida (Tampa Bay area). One time about ten years ago I had to take a connector flight in Miami. It was ALL Spanish THEN.

I use to live in Miami. Getting to talk to people there was kinda hard because a lot of them don't speak English, but i think i prefer the white cuban over the Mexican. I remember that a bunch of time i would see a white person and i would assume that they are anglo , but when i started to talk to them i could tell they where cuban because of their accent. Anyway i had one of my friend in
High school( he was a white cuban) tell me that in Cuba you would find all the White cuban of european ancestor that never mix in the east side of country and that they where really racist toward the black and mix Cuban.
