no, calling a mexican a wetback and not promoting him because he's mexican and doing things because he's mexican (or shit, you shouldn't even be calling him mexican. its latin-american, hispanic, etc), those are racist.

sitting around with your buddys (assuming you don't exclusivly hang out with your race) and cracking a few racial jokes is not racist.

mencia just does it on a larger scale.

you see, most of this country has racial problems. here in san antonio, we don't. its 56% hispanic, 7% black, 2% asian, and 34% white. when I hang out with my car friends, I'm usually the only white person there.

so maybe you're right in your part of the country, but here its different for the better. so thats why I feel how I do.
