New Orleans becoming a Latino city

roni · 08-28-2007

NPR just reported that the Hispanic population of New Orleans has tripled since Katrina - mostly doing construction.

But some of those freaking crackers down there are banning taco trucks - mammyjammers.

No I am not. It could be a combination of the crackers and the Negroes.

The story was not that detailed.

I'd like to see your sources on this. It's interesting to me. Do you have a link?

Crackers:, so are the Saltines, the Triscuits or the Wheatthins stopping the taco trucks from their missions? What kind of code are we using here? When are the Goldfish, and the Ritz crackers coming out?

20 million ...you do the figures. Don't have any sources.. Do you? Just stating an opinion...or is that just so very wrong for you?

My, my...defensive.

I didn't realize it was just your opinion, I thought you were saying something factual. I actually did want a link so I could get the information. Is wanting to know actual facts so very wrong for you?

Hispanics in the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

it doesn't show much as far as growth trends but maybe some of the links might.

Thank you!

it did say this:

The Hispanic growth rate over the July 1, 2003 to July 1, 2004 period was 3.6% - higher than any other ethnic group in the United States, and in fact more than three times the rate of the nation's total population (at 1.0%). The projected Hispanic population of the United States for July 1, 2050, is of 105.6 million people. According to this projection, Hispanics will constitute 25% of the nation’s total population on that date.[5]
