This cultural import is reflective of an overall change in the demographics of the USA. Soon, job applications and other forms will feature the ethnic choice of "non-Hispanic white".

"Malverde is widely considered the patron saint of drug dealers, say law enforcement officials and experts on Mexican culture. A shrine has been erected atop his grave in the remote city of Culiacán in the Mexican state of Sinaloa, which has long been associated with opium and marijuana trafficking."

This is somehow a good thing?
