That is very sad
Also, the other extreme - I notice many latinos in my neck of the woods are very fat and I think this has to do with the bad nutrition in less expensive food. They can't afford to eat nutritious food. It's really sad, their kids are obese already at age 10.

maybe if the f++king gov.would raise the min.wage to at least 10.oo per hr..this wouldn't be a problem !!!

F in math?
"It is substantially greater than that of non-Hispanic whites, of whom only about 5% suffer from limited access to nutritious food, according to US government statistics." Um, do the math. 1 in 20 IS 5 percent.

Immigration => Exploitation
Taking contrapositives, no exploitation implies no immigration.

Mexican food is filled with protien, fiber ,and loads of nutrients. Those taco shops are on every corner. I find this story very suspicious.

I feel bad for all hungry folks, no matter what color or ethnicity. When did I say (or even imply) differently? You sure are reading a lot into my comment. Looking for trouble? We already know you're a hateful bigot, so STFU.

This is simple race baiting. Study hunger of everyone. Hunger is not different because of race. I'm sick of everyone thinking their skin color is special!

Being the "Christian" that we are, this shows how we are failing the teachings of Christ to feed the hungry. The callousness of allowing vulnerable people to go hungry is disgraceful. Can you imagine putting your little girl to bed hungry on a regular basis? Even one night? Poverty in America is at epic numbers yet the Pentagon wants $99 billion...what are we going to do about this? We are failing as a counrty. I was led to believe we are better then that.

Some website
So this is supposed to be a liberal website? Looks like a KKK rally to me. Viva, the math is fine. 1/20 is "hungry", 1/5 is "food insecure". The hunger rate isn't shocking, but the rate of those who don't have consistent nutrition is. A real progressive website, The NewStandard, ran an article on this today. RAW should be linking to them, because their independent, rather than the government/commercial-funded BBC. http://newstandardnews.net/content/index.cfm/items/4001

Ralph G, welcome to the terror dome, where sane logic is second to outright hatred. I'm sure you saw that the govt recently replaced the term "hunger" with "food insecurity." (Praise to Eric Blair.) Hence, there is no difference between 1 in 5 hungry and 20 percent with "food insecurity." But I do think that Raw Story ran it because they didn't catch the math mistake, and belived that it made Latinos look bad in some way. They always run stories that spark outrage at the immigrants, but ignore stories such as 70 percent of Americans being in favor of comprehensive immigration reform AND effective border security. That's why I watch them like a hawk. But yes, these post do draw the ugliest of the ugly. Such as "Vincente Fox," a real asswipe.

Wait a second...
The article says that "1 in 20" Latinos goes hungry as opposed to "only 5%" of Whites. I don't know what kind of math BBC reporters have to learn, but isn't one in twenty precisely equal to five percent?

Someone -- La Raza or BBC or whomever --screwed up the math, creating a "story" where there is none. And RS jumped right on it.
December 20th, 2006 at 17:29:39  From: tony
leave it to viva to see race in everything
`I read different versions of this on several sites, as well as heard about it on NPR today. The problem goes much deeper than this. Many of the Latinos that are without food are here illegally. They don't speak English and don't know where to turn. I would be the last person on earth to turn away a hungry person, but the problem is still that they are illegals. We did not take them to raise. They want free medical care and food stamps so the tax payers can take care of them. I don't even think an American citizen should be handed everything. But to be here illegally and expect us to feed them and give them medical care is not what America is all about. The minimum wage will never be raised enough to support a family of four. The price of necessities goes up at a greater pace than wages. The Governments goal is to keep the poor and middle class in the red so we can support them with interest payments and just trying to survive. It will never change. A leading scientist with the GAO said that she thought that within 8 years America will reach a boiling point that will determine our future. The cost of just living will be the catalyst.

Sad but funny
Basically they said that white and latino hunger rate or nutritional insecurity was equal. Then all the bigots and haters come out from under their slime buckets. From what I have seen there are way too many grossly fat asses of all color and creed in this country. When you have a greed based economy, it is no wonder people over eat. They are programed day and night to buy and consume shit they do not need. It is hard to tell what is in food that you get most of the time. It took a law in NEW York to get them to stop using heart toxic motor oil to cook their frys cus it saves a few hundreths of a percent of profit. It is profits first, people last. Its called free market. Free to market any kind of snake oil with any kind of lies that help you push your shitty products to the least educated and poorist of the population. I wonder where these sick ass bigots come from? they are not all natives of this land. Maybe we can send their sorry asses back to whatever hellhole they came from.

Tony I see your point but their goverment is more ruthless t
As a good Human, I want to feed them too and maybe give them a gun and ammo and tell them to take back their country from the gansters that took it from them. It is of illegal to transport guns and ammo into mexico. It is not illegal to give them a gun and ammo. Maybe even teach them some tactics in ied's. It is just a thought, I have never got past the feeding the hungry part.

How in the hell is this even accurate. They get every governmental service available to them and their kids get free lunch. Oh, but I guess you have to take into account that this study was put on by the National Council of La Raza and totally racist group. Nice try!

December 20th, 2006 at 18:40:23  From: tony
there are a lot of bigots that just don't get it
They are hungry. They need to eat. So we feed them, but that is only half of the problem. They need to either become legal, or go back to their own countries and make a difference there. We have all we can take care of without looking after illegals. I have a good friend named Easu. He came here with nothing 20 years ago. He now is a very successful business owner with two collage degrees. He did this on his own with no help from the government. That is the way it should be. But we get all these people who want handouts. They need to get their ass in their hand and work harder. For many years I had to work a full time job and 2 part time jobs to feed my family. I am considered "uninsurable" because of a nervous disorder, but have never asked the government for help. And my medication sometimes runs as much as $1300.00 a month. Everyone has problems. It is just a matter of how you deal with them.

December 20th, 2006 at 19:04:05  From: johns
al... Viva sees racism in everything to do with "Hispanics" because he's racist to the bone and defines himself in those terms. Article: La Raza doesn't differentiate between hispanic children that are the offspring of legal hispanic residents or citizens of hispanic ancestry and those that are children of illegal aliens and tries to cover that intentional deception by referring to all as "hispanic immigrants". La Raza is completely behind amnesty (disguised as comp imigration reform) for illegal aliens as a reward for lawbreaking and evading prosecution. In fact, many of those hungry hispanic "immigrant" children are the children of illegal aliens and they go hungry because of the decisions of their parents to break the law for their own convenience with the encouragement of groups like La Raza. The racist nature of this group (and Viva) and their advocacy for lawlessness aside, another reason for rejecting the arguements of these gutless scum is that they don't hesitate to use children as pawns to serve their naked ambition for political power. If they really cared about all the hungry hispanic children, they'd be out busting their own asses every day to be sure that every one of them were well-fed every day and not trying to promote new race-based political groups that use their own hungry poster-children to divide citizens and communities against each other. "Immigrants also face a series of linguistic, legal and cultural obstacles in accessing enough food." says the BBC. Well yeah?? What the article doesn't mention is that "Hispanic Rights" groups like La Raza fight tooth-and-nail for exhorbitant extended-duration bilingual education courses in public schools for "immigrant" kids so they won't have to learn English learn how to deal with the "cultural obstacles". And "legal obstacles?" It's not surprising that when a familiy is living illegally that they run into "legal obstacles". This group is totally unconcious not only when it comes to legality and the law, but when it comes to basic adult integrity as well. Make no mistake about it, this group is out to destroy U.S. law insofar as it relates to the integrity of its national borders and its concept of citizenship and it will use any means to do so.

Nice post Johns. Viva is a racist against el gringo. Has a lot of nerve calling others racists. He is dedicated to the overthrow of the Usa and taking it back for Mexico.

I used to know some people who were paid "under the table" for construction work, received food stamps and other social services. They were also always scamming churches and charities. They spent most of their money on drugs and even exchanged food stamps for drugs. They had two kids who definitely went hungry. They were skinny kids though and finally got taken away from their "parents". Before they were taken into CPS custody they would come to my house and beg for food. You may get plenty to eat, be chubby and still be malnutritioned, but you're not going hungry. If you get so little to eat that you feel hungry often, you will be thin. These were the only skinny Mexican kids I've ever seen. I've been to Mexico on vacation a few times and never see skinny people there either.

this is a long running problem
I was listening to some shit bag last week on NPR and all he talked about was what the USA owed the "brown people". We owe them nothing! The land that they claim is theirs was won in war. They lost, we won. That makes the land Americas. And yes, there are a lot of whites that go hungry every day. And while some of the trailer park people have their hands out, most find a way to fend for themselves. Hell, in 1972 we still had an outhouse. And that is the truth. It was mighty cold in January in Indiana. We took tub baths in the kitchen in the winter, and in the creek in the summer, but we never asked for help from anyone. This is why I have no sympathy for those who need help to eat. Get out and work, or grow something. Or just go home and let America take care of Americans that are here legally.
