Now-a-days your statement (above) could be considered to have a taint
of racism to it.

Why would saying that Catholic, family oriented Hispanics are "mostly a
warm, friendly people who care about family and community" ever be
construed as racist?
Maybe edging toward paternalistic, but that's all.


Because, if that same statement was made about the the race that usually
hollers out racist, they would holler out racist.
Was mention made of Catholics? I must have missed it.
