@DrewDad,
Drew,

The problem is the context.

If someone posts a thread entitled "The Jews at the Bank won't give me a loan"-- would you accept that this was demeaning (even though the word "Jew" is not demeaning by itself)?

It is that the ethnicity is completely irrelevant, but is included to add "punch" and reinforce stereotypes that makes it "demeaning".

It seems we have fought racism against Jewish people and African-Americans only to replace it with racism against Latinos and Muslims.

((Ironically this is the first time DrewDad has ever disagreed with me-- what are the odds...))

@ebrown p,
**** you ebrown... you wouldn't have said a goddam word if I'd said there are Hungarians under my window with leaf blowers.... your constant turning around of everything into some ultraliberal whine is ridiculous.

But you don't know if they're Mexican. They could be from El Salvador, Chile, etc.

Why do you suppose he doesn't know?

When I was in Texas or California, I knew who were Mexican and who was not..

I only hire citizens of Luxembourg to be on my landscaping crew.

The leaf blowers are a total waste of time and fossil fuel. There is a version that sucks up leaves and mulches them so you can use them on your garden - now that is a machine worth using.

@ebrown p,
You don't know whether he is factually correct (they could be, in fact, Mexican nationals) or not.

He didn't use racial epithets.

Why the overreaction? Do you fly off the handle every time someone says "Canadian"?

@Gala,
Is there nothing that you politically correct to the nth degree assholes can't turn into a godddam cry baby whine about how ******* put upon you are or how goddam smug and sensitive you are because of your deep empathy for the downtrodden?

Jesus Christ, this was a thread about leaf blowers.

@Green Witch,
I hate it when Luxembourgians run leaf blowers outside my window.

Can't understand their Jibber-jabber.

@DrewDad,
If young greek girls, who I personally consider to be the most beautiful creatures on God's Earth were running leaf blowers under my window it would still be a stupid waste of time and energy. that was kinda the point of the thread, the silliness of leaf blowers. Of course I could be mistaking them for Italian girls. All those brown skined people are the same to be.

In addition, you cannot distinguish them from the Liechtensteinians..

@ebrown p,
and ebrown, I hope your balls drop one of these days. I'm not angry, just weary of you whiny cocksuckers. Now you can accuse me of being a gay basher and feel even more superior.

@Bi-Polar Bear,
There's a "what should they be blowing" joke in there somewhere, but I'm not crude enough to go looking for it.

That's why I prefer to hire Belgiums. How can you mistake a Belgian ...
