This is how i see it as, What has this certain person done for our society?
many hispanics are hard working and friendly. do you know what the unemployment rates are for african americans?

Afican americans can still be cool ppl but sometimes they are not as productive as they should be. (some are still very productive and some are not just like in every other race). please dont take my comments as threats, they are not, i still love everyone.
Understood and all taken in context.

I see your point but then you are also looking at it from the side of someone who has Mexican heritage so you see it in a different light.

Many people see the Mexican culture in America as one of laziness and dirtiness as well and that all they want to do is collect a welfare check as they pile six familys in a one family unit and drive cars with no insurance...these are racial stereotypes and this is what these types of events are meant to break down.

Every culture regardless has lazy people who don't work, steal, deal drugs, rape, murder etc. but to stereotype all of that ethnicity in that light is the thing that needs to be stopped. Each individual is their own person and should be judged in that way.
