Wait until you go to the grocery store this week,. I thought I'd faint.

52. Yes, there are a lot of illegal immigrants where I live.

That term is not derogatory. Now, I have a problem with illegal "aliens."

I live in Dallas, which is a somewhat large city. I live within the loop, so I live in a mixed area, I guess it's called. A variety of races, ethnicities. I wouldn't want to live in an all-white city, either.

But mainly we have latinos as the minority (many of which are illegals, but not all). A healthy # of Af. Americans. A smattering of what look to be middle easterners (Pakistani, etc.). I think there are some Asians here, but not in my area. Large Jewish population. Lots and lots of evangelicals and Babtists and Methodists. A little bit of everything, except no Italian population that I know of, no French.

I mention the "illegal" part of the latino population because it is different from the others. It affects the community and the economy differently from a citizen of any race/ethnicity.
