A new Census report is out and the results are in: the tsunami of foreigners, led by illegal immigration, is overwhelming the historic American population. For example, several counties in Texas have less than 5 percent white population, south of the Mexican-Dixon line.

Whites are now in the minority in nearly one in 10 U.S. counties.

And that increased diversity, fueled by immigration and higher birth rates among blacks and Hispanics, is straining race relations and sparking a backlash against immigrants in many communities.

“There’s some culture shock,” said Mark Mather of the Population Reference Bureau, a Washington-based research agency. “But I think there is a momentum building, and it is going to continue.”

Of course, it’s not increased births among black citizens that is adding to “diversity” — the extreme transformation being wrought in the American nation is caused by the demographic warfare being waged via immigration against the current citizenry by Mexicans and others.

Immigration has spread from traditional gateways of southwestern border states and New York to all over the nation at a speed that has terrified many citizen communities with the rapidity by which a town may be swamped by illegal foreigners. For example, Luzerne County Pennsylvania (home to Hazleton) has experienced a tripling of Hispanics since 2000.

This being an Associated Press story, the boo hooey flows like a mighty river. Note how a US-born Hispanic complains that she feels unwelcome even as she works treasonously for an anti-borders, anti America organization. Perhaps there is a connection…

“I think across the board all of us feel like we’re not welcome,” said Jacinto, who was born in the U.S. and volunteers for an advocacy group called Mexicans Without Borders.

Prince William County has seen its Hispanic population more than double since 2000, to nearly 70,000 last year. Non-Hispanic whites account for a little more than half the population, down from about two-thirds in 2000. [...]

“I don’t think Latinos or any other so-called minority group are seeking to make white people a minority,” Jacinto said. “It’s just a reality.”

The article also recites the now-outdated statistic that “By 2050, minorities will account for half of U.S. residents.” Obviously the demographic reversal will be much sooner than mid-century unless our borders are shut down soon, and many of the residents will be loyal to foreign nations that are historic enemies of America, Mexico in particular.

Immigration — it’s the new way of war.

This has come up earlier in the campaign in blogs, and of course we’ve been covering it for years.

ABC News: Mitts Off! Romney Blasts Giuliani over ‘Sanctuary’ for Illegal Immigrants

By JAKE TAPPER with RON CLAIBORNE BETTENDORF, Iowa, Aug. 8, 2007
New York became a sanctuary city, where illegal immigrants enjoy some measure of protection, through an executive order signed by Mayor Ed Koch in 1989, five years before Giuliani became mayor in January 1994.

But if Giuliani inherited the policy, he reissued it and seemed to embrace it.

At a June 1994 press conference, Giuliani decried anti-illegal immigration policies as unfair and hostile.

“Some of the hardest-working and most productive people in this city are undocumented aliens,” Giuliani said at the time. “If you come here and you work hard and you happen to be in an undocumented status, you’re one of the people who we want in this city. You’re somebody that we want to protect, and we want you to get out from under what is often a life of being like a fugitive, which is really unfair.”

At a speech in Minneapolis in 1996, Giuliani defended Koch’s executive order, that, in his words “protects undocumented immigrants in New York City from being reported to the INS while they are using city services that are critical for their health and safety, and for the health and safety of the entire city.”

“There are times when undocumented immigrants must have a substantial degree of protection,” Giuliani said.

The most amazing thing about Giuliani’s immigration enthusiasm is that it was not only undiminished by various mass murders committed by immigrants, which he used as an excuse to try to get gun control imposed on Americans outside New York state, but it was even undiminished by 9/11 itself.

See my article after 9/11 and his interview with Barbara Walters on September 17, 2001.

The San Jose Mercury News writes:

In a new effort to crack down on illegal immigrants, federal authorities are expected to announce tough rules this week that would require employers to fire workers who use false Social Security numbers.

Officials said the rules would be backed up by stepped-up raids on workplaces across the country that employ illegal immigrants.

….

If workers’ documents cannot be verified, employers would be required to fire them or risk up to $10,000 in fines for knowingly hiring illegal immigrants.

According to a fact sheet at the White House, the current fine levels are

The civil fine for employers who hire illegal workers is between $275 and $2,200 per alien for first-time offenders; between $3,300 and $11,000 per alien for four-time offenders.

I’ve seen other references to higher fines up to $25,000–but I’m not sure the exact nature of the offenses for which those fines apply.

Anyhow, all these fines are way too low compared to the potential benefits to employers and risk of getting caught involved here. We also need to think about how to soften the blow on poor folks that have made considerable investment in a corrupt regime. We can have a tough enforcement policy that handles employers quite seriously and assures the immigrants themselves return home to decent conditions.
