Harrier doesn't know why they made those tweets, but he can surmise that they just weren't very well informed and didn't bother to do basic research before making their comments, which would tend to peg them as liberals.
Ha! Nice try.

I think we all know that the uninformed twits tweeting racist **** - were anything but liberal. The may have come directly from stormfront - you know, that bastion of liberal well wishes.

We did this to ourselves.
So, conservative you is saying that these people couldn't have bothered to take the initiative and gone out to get to know some Hispanic Americans on their own?

If you can't do that in this day and age, you choose to be a racist. It's really that simple.

You have a good point there.

This does remind me of the boy in San Antonio that got the same crap.
That boy was wearing a mariachi costume. He looked like an idiot up there. what the hell does mariachi have to do with baseball?

Marc Antony is a commonwealth...or are you going off on yet another "them people aren't...." rant. Oh My Lord, please think Mark is a commonwealth.

Uh; "Hispanic" ain't a race. Hell; it's not real safe for dark skin people like LatAm Hispanics in Hispanic Spain tho La Raza tries to claim the white Spaniards.

Welcome to 2013: prejudice is getting worse because of the illegal alien problem and possible "amnesty". Anthony sees a "Hispanic" in the mirror and lives up or down to that culture IMHO and other people pick up on it.
Who exactly is that onus on? Prejudice predates illegal aliens, "Amnesty" or Marc Anthony.

I can't and I never said that I could. Where are you going with this? If I knew a person was here illegally they certainly wouldn't warrant my respect, however.
