Let me break it down for you...a Latin Eagle goes with his gal and a few other couples to a place like Santa's Village to take their kids there for some fun. ...while there, they see a group of Latin Kings with their wives/girlfriends and their children...one thing leads to another and there's a problem. It might only happen once in a while, but it makes the news when it does. It's more about undesireables making the experience less fun and people feeling less safe. None of this has anything to do with being racist. I have no problems with Latinos. I have a problem with gang-bangers of any race. It just happens that in that area the gang problems are predominantly from Latin gangs. When this thing goes under, I'll remind you I said it would.
GOOD CALL DUDE! i'm going to use my pull over at the CSTRCHOF (chicago sports talk radio caller hall of fame) to put up a little sign that says "your skin must be this hue or lighter to enter the shrine." now, while many of you jealous non-noteworthy haters will claim that this is racism pure and simple i would like to tell you that you're wrong. you see, i used to work with bensenville police chief kosman and while he tells me that "those goddamn spooks and spicks should go back to their ghettos in the city" he also tells me that 98% of gang violence in the metropolitan area is of ethnic-MINORITY gangs and not from more traditional white gangs such as the aryan nation, the hell's angels, or others. statistics aren't racist, last time i checked. we're only going with statistics here. seriously, a really overtanned or sunburned white person would be subject to the same rules as would, say, forest whitaker and the back of his neck.
the problem isn't that we're being racist against minorities, it's that they're minorities, and thus they tend to form gangs in order to feel safer around the majority. i've had so many people come up to me saying "wood dale (you say the whole name like a tribe called quest), i was trying to read the preserved letters from rusty in stickney/jacksonville but then an el rukn with his wife and kids noticed some MS-13 tourists over by the schmootzy e-mail archive and they started getting into an argument.then i looked over and saw a gentlemen with many questionable tattoos looking shady around myron's cubicle and my wife said "honey, these kinds of things don't happen often but when they do they make the news. let's go get a couple of gridiron assassin vanilla puddings on the way out and get the hell out of here"
you see? that family has the kind of experience that won't bring them back to bensenville, and while i'm not trying to be racist here, sometimes you have to call a spade a spade. and what color is a spade? it's not racism, it's just a real-world observation from one of the few posters here who dares to be honest, much like the brand. respect.
