The word 'third world' means that the country is not aligned with US (first world) or Soviet Union (second world).

Outside of that it has no meaning.

Oh yes i forgot, people born in mexico and people born in united states are 2 totally different types of humans and should not be mixed up whatsoever.

This, even though he was being sarcastic. Even if you don't give two shits about your own culture and only care about "LIBERTAAAAY", latinos overwhelmingly support big government policies. You're going to have to choose between liberty and open borders.

Are people on here actually disputing the higher crimes relative to blacks and Hispanics?

To say this, OP, means that you don't realize what makes America a first-world nation in the first place. The answer is primarily invested capital, rights protections, and how cheap capital is here.

You could have the entire world immigrate here and it wouldn't change already invested capital.

The real problem would be all the benefits given to people who live here, which is a completely optional facet of our society and a foolish reason to try to stop immigration.

In a free-society without compulsory welfare, another person moving to that free society does not increase anyone else's burdens. That's how things should be.

No. They are disputing the cause of this disparity.

MissMapleLeag:
too many immigrants would be coming in and not enough jobs to support everyone, and not to mention the crime rate will go up because of them. Look at the scandinavian countries and Australia that have strict border control and they're the happiest places in the world.

Ok, racist.
