[QUOTE]Originally posted by IWISHIHAD: [QB] Quote Machiavelli: "As for the whole Mexican word. Go tell a Puerto Rican he is Mexican or vice/versa (or any hispanic/latin). Let me know what answer they gave you. I suggest you exercise your right to carry/own a gun when you do tell them what they are." _________________________________________________ Again your reading what you want things to say. What does a Hispanic/Mexican Walmart that i think will specialize in Mexican food have anything to do with above statement? Let alone how it has anything to do with the census and gov. and how many of the Hispanics/Mexicans consider themselves white as far as the census and their personal preferance. I had made this statement to you: "Actually Machiavelli the Hispanics/Mexicans are considered white also." And this was your answer: "Actually no were not. Do not know where you got that from. Spaniards on the other hand are." Then i told you where i got it. Have you every completed a census report, i believe it is required by law, but i will have to look again. I actually worked doing the 2000 census, interesting and rather fun, would not mine doing it again. Now to answer your above statement, not that it has anything to do with what we were talking about. I have worked with many Mexicans/Hispanics etc. over the years. The last one i worked with hated the Mexicans that came over the border illegally. I never asked him why, sometimes your better off leaving well enough alone. What i heard while driving with him told me i would hear and ear full if i asked him. He never wanted to be refered to them in any way. There were many others i worked with that the subject never came up one way or the other, most of us had enough garbage going on with work, like most everyone else. Then there was another person back in the 70's that could not understand why so many of his people(Mexicans) that worked at the company would not bother to learn the English languge. Yet as he stated, wanted to get ahead and they cound not understand why they did not. He would explain to them, but they just ignored him, while he moved up the pay scale. They all lived within the same community so it was not necessary to learm english and they made no attempt to teach their kids or send them where they could/would have to. This particular indivual sent his kids to school where they had to learn english. He liked to be refered to as Mexican, but really was never offended if called something else. Last but not least, was 2 friends of mine that i was overseas with, they were Puerto Rican. I heard them called Black sometimes and Mexican other times. They were never offended, yet made it clear they were Puerto Rican and very proud of it. I always felt those guys got the shaft when they got drafted, just like Guam did. [/QB][/QUOTE]
