Interesting immigration stats.
In 2014. The U.S. government issued 9,932,480 immigrant and non-immigrant visas. Of those, 4,551,616 went to citizens of mostly Latin countries in the western hemisphere (nearly 50%). Of that number, 1,484,480 went to Mexicans (almost 33%). Again, these are documented immigrant and non-immigrant work/education visas.
I understand the concerns of those here without documentation. Believe me, I get it. But can't a better argument be made to defend undocumented immigrants than crying "racism" like Jorge Ramos is doing? If we were a racist nation, we would not be giving so many visas to non-Americans. And incidentally, only a small percentage of these over 9 million visas went to Europeans (less than 10%). Latin America got almost
HALF of them.
Not trying to argue. Just trying to understand.
Thoughts? (please be civil)
