Easily triggered.
I'd love to give mtl1 a walking tour from the Santa Monica Pier down to the Venice Fishing Pier. Record his/her reaction and watch it go viral in 10 minutes.

Yes, it sounds absolutely horrible the constant yelling in poorly spoken Spanish and loud tejano and mariachi music, and worst probably not a one is here legally. Then there is the aesthetic element.

Protected class. Race is not a recognized reason to deny service. It pre-empts any presumed property rights.

You don't own your mind, body, and fruits of your labor. The State does and then cedes the rights back to you if you eat your veggies.

It's called freedom, I suppose.

It's also called living as a perpetual 5-year-old but pay no mind to that fact.

I always thought that kinda stuff was quite lovely, although I guess when you grow up where other cultures being close by is the norm, it makes for a different mindset on those kinds of things.

LOL. Please do. We're just coming off of a nice break from November of last year until a few weeks ago - and we're already in need of another one.

That's one thing, but to see and hear it in places that never was a latin American seen or Spanish heard to suddenly being flooded with enumerable people from latin America going out their way to be seen and heard takes the cake.

The fact existing law tramples over property rights does not mean it isn’t a property rights issue. It’s not a legal issue

Go read up Heart of Atlanta Motel vs. United States. Reference Title II of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Supreme Court is a good place to start.
