No. I don't even understand where this is coming from. What are you trying to say exactly?

Houston is about 22% Black, 23% White, and 44% Hispanic/Latino. 22% of Houston was born in another country, and the percentage of 1st/2nd-gen immigrants is extremely high.
Considering this, Houston is probably not a place that is ultra-nationalistic for the USA.

Truth! I live in Pearland and there are not too many fanatics of any persuasion here. Mostly everyone gets along. I have friends and acquaintances of all different persuasions and we can all coexist peacefully.

What is hyper nationalism?
