GEORGIA IS SETTING a record that most legal residents would rather not see etched in stone, but in reality it already has been. The state has one of the fastest growing illegal alien populations in the United States; it has tripled in slightly more than a decade.
According to U.S. Census Bureau figures reported by Cox News Service, the immigrant population has grown from an estimated 268,000 in 1995 to 378,000 in 2000 to 953,000 in 2007. Of those 953,000 Hispanics from Mexico, Central America and South America who call Georgia home, some 53 percent of them, or 504,000 people, are here illegally. Only Arizona and North Carolina have a higher proportion of illegal aliens in their populations.
