49.6% = Non-Hispanic White
50.4% = EVERYTHING else
How the fuck is that a minority?
Thats the equivalent of saying Christians are a mintority of the all world religions, because they only make up a third of the world population.
Most biased and misleading news post I have read in a while.

Re: Cool / Interesting / WTF / Funny news articles!
That's true, but I think it's relevant to people who care about `themselves, ie. non-hispanic whites` and everybody who's not a non-hispanic white. For them they are now a minority.Drofder2004 wrote:49.6% = Non-Hispanic White

Yeah that's what I meant, either way I still think it's quite interesting that over half the births arn't non-hispanic whites now. Well I'm not sure about the backgrounds in USA or how long different cultures have been there, but in the UK i would be surprised if white were under 50%.

You cannot consider a minority when comparing to "everything else".
I am a minority because I am a male in the 20-29 age bracket and there are more people in the 30-100 age bracket.
I am also a minority because I am white, and there are more ants on the earth than white people...

Latest figures are not released yet (due between July 2012 - July 2013), these figures have probably dropped to a little under 50% with my guess.

Although, common sense says you should never assume such event and check

Yeah that line is retarded.
I have a good relationship with a family, they have small kids and one of their kids (10 years old) also plays this 'game'. It's unavoidable that you have such chat on such a service tbh.

A company can assigna web team 6 months to come up with a brilliant website, 3 months of that time will be spent on 'how to make IE7 work'.
The tax concept is brilliant, it doesn't stop you from getting a customers order, but if they want to avoid paying a fee they must upgrade. The more people that upgrade the more time and effort can be spent on modern design principles and we can leave IE7 to rot.
