Fact 1)The population of Mexico that is below the poverty line is 40%.
Fact 2) They receive over $1B a year in foreign aid.
Fact 3) The population is 60% mestizo (Amerindian-Spanish), 30% Amerindian or predominantly Amerindian, 9% white and 1% other. Hardly the homogeneity of Sweden, so I don’t see how pointing out negative facts about Mexico is racist.
Fact 4) Mexico is rich in petroleum, silver, copper, gold, lead, zinc, natural gas and timber, and yet 40% of the population is in poverty, while unemployment is less than 4%.
Summary: a basket case economy despite rich natural wealth. Wonder why?
Read your prior posts. This is the first one that purported to show anything resembling facts. If you want to say that the entire population of the country is lazy, go ahead. I just think that point of view is ignorant. By the way, once again, I support legal, not illegal immigration. I don’t want anyone in this country illegally. Illegal means against the law. If you are here illegally, regardless of race, religion or place of origin, you should immediately be placed in a bus back to wherever you came from. Geraldo is an idiot.
Nobody Important & Nancy: You two have taken a page out of Al Sharpton’s book. If you’re inclined to do so, you’ll think you see racism in every situation that involves people of other ethnic origins. Tell me this……I’ve never heard any Mexicans claim racism……..only you, why is that? There’s only one race that has the corner on the racism market…….and that’s not racism……just fact.
On second thought, a serious response. I can’t believe that what I thought was a fairly obvious racial(or ethnic) slur is being defended so much. I have known a lot of people Dread, and you aren’t one of them.
Thanks for the laugh N.I. I guess idiots like Dread can only respond with idiotic answers. I never search for racism in things like Dread said but please… the racism in Al’s statement was as blatant as a burning cross.

Calling Mexicans tacos and saying they live in Tacoland is extremely racist. Calling you a racist is not name calling it’s just pointing out a fact.
Wow not only is Al racist but homophobic and xenophobic. Gosh Al is just the pillar of christianity isn’t he?

Dread you are dumber than a rock. You also suck and that’s too bad.
Don’t insult rocks that way. Dread lives under them.
