Hey JES, I liked your call for some statistics. The problem is there really aren’t many. Each side has anecdotal evidence to support its case, neither has hard facts. This stems from the very nature of what is attempting to be studied. An undocumented group of people. People who for the most part, want to remain invisible (by necessity.)
Its very hard to have a discussion about immigration without someone throwing out the race card. I see Diego was first to do it. These threads really aren’t the place for this type of discussion its to heated. Even if this is not in the housing area the anonymity and nature of the topic almost always lead to a flame war.
