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

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.

Sorry, I'm new here. 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?
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.

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.

He may not be a radical, but he buys into the same **** the right wing
sell insofar as playing the victim.

The need to be civil clearly isn't a conservative value. All this
carping is about nothing. Just a bunch of babies who prefer stupid
word groupings like "death tax" and "death panels" to get their little
minds all stirred up.

If Richard was truly MOR, he would buy into that crap.

If a conservative said something like that, hell would freeze over.
That's why so many latinos other than older Cubans so closely identify
with the modern conservative republicans (hah!), and the older Cubans
only do so because they think the Republicans will continue to crap on
Cuba so long as the Castros are alive.

You're just trolling for effect. It's a bit pathetic actually.

And you would be wrong, fret breath.

Actually, sales have become brisk lately. Most be the stimulus package at
work, huh?
More likely, it's receipt of income tax returns.

Sold 12 guitars and two amps on Saturday.
Two guitars and some other accessories so far today (which is always the
slowest day).

These are not budget, beginner guitars either. Average is in the $2k to $3k
turf.
Not bad for a little shop started as a hobby.

So, I am not complaining. Carry on with your assumptions,
characterizations and comments
about people that you have never met or know.

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.
