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

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 isn't because a liberal said it. If a conservative said something
similar, he/she would be
ostracized for stereotyping.

Eisboch


Sorry, I'm new here.

Uh, yeah... That was too well timed;)

Didn't know that a simple - and in my experience
true - statement is seen through a political prism. In any case, can
you show evidence that what you said it true?
An example of a conservative making a a similar statement and being
called racist, or ostracized for stereotyping?

Well, like you said, you are new here (snerk) so stick around a while and make
your own conclusion. Seems you are making one already though.

I can see where that might happen given the radicalization of politics,
but there is no reason for me to think in such a knee-jerk fashion.
All I see is one person's statement and your response to to.

Well, "new guy".. What kind of boat do you have? Does it have a "trolling"
motor?

Scotty





It's not as if *you* go boating in that crappy little rowboat of yours,
eh, snottyscotty...and wasn't it for sale? Did you find a sucker to buy it?

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.

You aren't being clear. What race "usually hollers out racist" and what
has it to do with Hispanics or the OP's statement?
I mentioned Catholic, because Hispanics are overwhelmingly Catholic, and
the church has influence on their family values.
Sorry if mentioning religion offended you. It was not my intent.

You don't know the answer to your first question? Hmmm.
Which OP are you referring to? You mentioned Catholic to get a religious
argument going. You and Plume are hell bent on destroying this
newsgroup, aren't you?

Those damn Canadians..

Eisboch is a fan of Fox News tactics. Make yourself out to be the
victim without any incident.

Forget it. Comment wasn't directed to you anyway. If you are new, I wish
you luck here.
I won't further poison your indoctrination.

Eisboch

Good idea, Richard.

Since there's no defensible argument to make, might as well cede.

Those damn Canadians..

Don't be deterred by these idiots. Just don't engage the dimmer ones
and you'll be fine.

Several of the more balanced folks herein can easily supply a list of
the idiots who'd join the teabaggers if they weren't so lazy.

Those damn Canadians..

If you're looking for boat, boating, boat-like, related conversation, there
is a little on this NG but it usually deteriorates into political ****ing
contests. Eisboch is not one of the idiot right or left wing radicals.
Probably just tired of blanket Cons bashing just as some Libs are tired of
the same directed towards them.
