California has a large hispanic population. They are mostly a warm,
friendly people who care about family and community.


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.




It would only paternalistic if there was some underlying agenda... keep them
in their place, they're only good with kids, etc.
