Our presence in the entertainment sector has been steadily increasing, which we all know sets the tone for society as a whole. Seems like we are now in a situation where we are either liked or disliked but no longer ignored.

Now this does not come as a surprise to me. I live in a town that is 80% hispanic so trends happening in American culture have been present here since forever. It seems to me that there is a new paranoia about "losing" the country. Attitudes that were directed at other minorities are now centered on us. Well let me tell you that you should be afraid.

My father calls it the retaking of our land. Now instead of doing it by military means we are doing it with our educated people. That's right it isn't the poor families in the slums you should be worried about it is families like mine that are a threat. Where every member has at least a bachelors degree. We are taking your white collar jobs thereby taking positions of influence in your society. We speak a minimum of 2 languages each fluently. Our children will be harder to identify as mexican so you might just give that job to someone with brown in their blood. The day is not far where you will be cutting my grass. Sleep well.
Get back in your tractor trailer bitch! [Finger]

I got no problem with Mexicans, or anyone else. I grew up in San Antonio, so I have been around the culture a lot. I used to love going to my friend's uncle's house, drinking mass quantities of Negro Modelo, playing pool, and listening to his old ass grandpa play the squeeze box. If you get here legally and become a citizen you are my brother. America has and always will be filled with diverse cultures. It is whay makes our society great.
