So your perception of South Carolina holds true for the entire state?
I would trust the numbers more than your experience.
Sample size FTW!!

In Memphis I believe it is 62% African-Americans.
But for the whole state of Tennessee it's 78% white.
So this stuff kind of varies across the state.

I'm not sure if you're making a joke or what here, but immigration wasn't a problem. Genocide was. White people didn't immigrate by moving in and becoming part of their countries/tribes but rather to establish their own separate colonies. Mexicans aren't coming in to establish Mexican colonies, but to become part of the United States.

For the OP I think it's tough to say what the effect will be. Good chance the world will be radically different by then.

Third generation barely knows any Spanish. The only thing different you'd notice is a lot of people that tan easily and have darker hair in 50 years.

This is dead on. Not to mention that study assumes immigration, birth and death rates will continue as they are now. Pretty big leap imo. This isn't any kind of "threat" to the US. Now the ****ed up foreign policies, monetary policies, etc ... But that belongs in the poli forum.

Oh, and meeting carrotsnake, who was a hick as expected.

Guess I'm just wondering what type of swarthiness scale people are using to define white. When does someone get a pass...and how many generations before someone may no longer recognize someone as non white. My niece has light brown hair and pale skin but her grandfather (my dad) is of east Indian descent and rather dark. It makes the question rather difficult to answer does it not???
Oh and I have a hell of a time filling out those ethnicity questions...Self identity vs the box others place you in.

Some of it has to be levelling:

"When hit on by a negro, my first reaction is to litteraly run away. I absolutely can't stand the fact of one touching me or the thought alone of it. I walk ad fast as I can and if it keeps following me I start yelling and make sure everybody around me hears me loud and clear.

However, in some situations i can't just run away. F.e. on the buss. In that case I usually say I don't have any time or listen to my favorite metal music on my ipod (very loud). Negros usually can't stand metal. When on the buss I also need to try really hard not to faint form their horrendous sickening smell."

As this article from the BBC points out, in just 1000 years "Race" will be largely ironed out and almost everyone will have a light tan skin tone ala Halle Berry.

Give it up racists, it's over.

Ahahahahahah, in a thread about how Whites are dominating the Olympics, a poster praises the white members of the US relay swim team, only to be told that 2 of them are Jews...

Quote:

I was told that the negro on the swim team, Cullen Jones was so bad that he almost caused the US team to lose.

And that the awesome athlete Jason Lezak had to do his share and more to pull them up from behind (thanks to the negro).

Now the negro is prancing around with a gold medal saying he's going on some "Diversity Tour".

They were willing to risk the success of the white US swim team just to stick a token negro in there to advertise for more negros in the water.

Who ever heard of a negro swimming?

-----------
The awesome "white" athlete is a jew. So is Weber-Gale, nice white squad.
