Thats an incredibly ignorant statement. MY sons high school is probably 70% minority . It has fantastic labs and even gets grants form microsoft.

I think everyone knew that he meant non-whites when he said minorities.
Face it, minority is a lot easier to say than 1st generation immigrants who have no formal education. The PC crap is getting real old.

I know I am taking this thread in completely another direction but I did not appreciate nutxo's comment. I found his language to be too loose. What kind of minority? Financial? Race? Just because someone is a racial minority in a place does not mean they are inferior as implied in your use of language. The tables can also be reversed. What if you are an anglo and you live in a hispanic barrio? Then, YOU are the minority. And you are watering down our schools. And what you said is in accurate, if your sons school is 70% minority then your son is the minority. I find that people tend to associate people other than anglos, "minorities", in a lower social stratum. If we do this we should include"white trash" and "wiggers" as minorities, the lower end of the anglo financial stratum. Many minorities have high incomes. My family has and has had several people with networths in the millions. Several family members earn 6-figure salaries. My HISPANIC family has probably been here longer than your anglo family. I am hispanic with predominantly asian and indian friends. Many of them(friends and family) are doctors, engineers, businessmen, etc. Anglos have as many lower income individuals as we do(not a precise statement but used to prove a point).
When you refer to minorities, the ones nutxo mentioned, refer to them as 1st generation immigrants who have no formal education who will do anything to get a decent job in the US or as the supposed "blacks held down by the white man", etc. DO NOT GROUP US INTO A BLANKET STATEMENT THAT INSULTS US!(goes for everyone to everyone else)
Hispanics, Asians, Indians(technically South Asians) are taking the jobs you are too dumb or too lazy to do.
Good DAY
