It's stupid. Stupidity transcends race.

It's funny when Fallen_Daemon starts to slightly realize how racist he is, and becomes defensive.

So he reacts by spamming tons of posts to get the focus back on the sub-section of "bad black people", to justify his racist view of the world.

lol you and few other posters are strangely obsessed with me and projecting. Me thinks you should see a shrink about your own racial issues.

Sometime when we point our your faults, it's because you have faults.

"Hispanic" or "Latino" is an ethnicity, not a race. There are white and black latinos, and Zimmerman is a white latino. (While we're at it, middle eastern is also an ethnicity, and they are also white.)

With that said, it's still racist and certainly not helping the situation.



Weird, I don't know any hispanics that think of themselves as white.

There are a LOT of light haired, light skinned, blue/green eyed hispanics. Hispanic can cover quite a large range of people. I guess it depends on how you define "white", and therefore, "not white".

Yeah, those are the ones on the Spanish soaps.

i think it's funny that everyone's view of a mexican, even in san diego, is the dark skin, dark eyes and dark hair mayan ancestors. then you go into actual mexico and everyone is fair skinned, has blue or green eyes and many have naturally blonde hair. the mayan mexicans are treated as second class citizens. you can see a lot of evidence of this on their tv shows. it's all white people speaking spanish. the more south you go in mexico, the whiter the population gets until you get to central america and everyone is super dark again.

Well, they might not personally identify themselves that way, but they're quite used to questionnaires that separate latino ethnicity from race:

So white hispanics are not a minority?
