And federal decisions to stop enforcing most laws against illegal immigration in the interior of the country led to additional higher levels of illegal aliens in the country. Yet another cause of the boom was immigrant fertility. Although American natives maintained a below-replacement-level fertility rate, immigrant fertility was at a similar rate to the U.S. Baby Boom fertility of the 1950s.

This is what I meant by saying "white man's America", Fish! Birth rates amongst those white americans with European ancestors are stagnating and not population-preserving, birth rates of other new immigrants are much higher (more than two kids per couple). That is why the balance is constantly shifting against the WASP, and in favour of for example Latin american immigrants.

Ah well, when it comes to the subject of religion my reply is always as follows:

I'd rather laugh with the sinners, than cry with the saints.

Europe is at risk of becoming one big country. Especially now with this new EU legislation that Gordon Brown refuses to give a referendum over.

Anyway, I think the whole of Europe could do with looking at religion in a less important light. No offense, but the next time I hear someone getting arrested here in Britain for eating a ham sandwich on Ramadan, I'm going to reach for my shotgun.

I certainly hope your wrong.....looking back through history and seeing the consequences when one European country tries to gain dominance over the others :hmm:

By "the rest of the world" I assume you just mean North America and not actualy the "rest of the world". :shifty:
