He probably thought that his use of two-syllable words and complex views on race such as "not all Latinos are Mexicans" and "not all Mexicans are bad" were going to fly over all of us uneducated hayseeds' heads.

Oh, he about got me. I had to get one of my coworkers to read over it very carefully so I could catch that.

LOL, I can't stop laughing about the snow globe comment. I'm picturing all these immigrants with snow globes. haha.

I had to get a child of an illegal immigrant. According to Senor Jonez, they're less ignorant than we are.

I'm sure the Klansmen would be eager to support such a concept for a t-shirt by making a parody out of their native language. The snow globe would be an excellent touch, a nice way of metaphorically letting the illegals know they are no longer allowed in a "WHITE NATION".

Speaking of the Klan, Ronnie, why don't you visit the St. Louis forum and tell them about your bad experience in St. Charles.

What do you mean by "native langauge"? I'm not sure what you're talking about there.


I think you're on to something with the snow metaphor.

This is about a "Legal" nation. I know you would like to believe your version because you would have a little more leverage with your half-wit comments but that just isn't the case.

You remind me of a Mexican Al Sharpton. You have all this political rhetoric and agenda, but it avoids any credible issues and points all problems and issues at white people.

I wish I wasn’t white...It’s hard being an ignorant klansman sometimes.

It seemed like you thought you were being funny by writing "Estados Unidos". Not sure if you'd want that on the original t-shirt you proposed, but it'd probably be a little more inflammatory if you wrote it like that.

You probably find it funny, I find it insensitive because you're really taking a shot at all Spanish-Speakers in this country making a mockery of the language, many of whom are here legally. Yes, I do think Iowa is more racist than other parts of the country, sorry if that offensive to you, but it's the truth. That's become another ridiculous point you will encounter in Iowa, you point out someone is racist...and they'll try and use it against you like you said the worst possible thing about them, although they're obviously racist.

There's no point in arguing further semantics.

Hispanics could use a Sharpton, you probably hate any minority activist, I can definitely see you hating them. In my opinion, the white man is usually blind to racism and minority can sometimes exaggerate, but it does happen. Of course, when any minority makes an accusation of racism they're just seen as a joke because this country has become more racist in the past 5 years, especially towards Hispanics.

I mean you live in Omaha, NE so I'd expect racism to be the norm around there, even Des Moines makes you guys look backwards.

That's the problem right there. You always say that you speak the "truth" when it is nothing more than your opinion. You just don't know how to handle yourself on these boards. Why do you think you keep getting banned? Oh yeah, because the administrators on those Des Moines websites can't handle the truth, right? Jack Nicholson is the greatest though.

BTW, Steve_W is from Iowa, Ronnie. He just lives in Omaha.
