Los Angeles, Mexico

MANIFESTO

There are some billboards for a Spanish language news program in L.A. that say “Los Angeles, CA MEXICO” and anti-immigration folks have gone crazy and are spitting mad. They consider the ad "offensive" and a "slap in the face" to Americans. Peter Amundson, a volunteer with the California Republican Assembly says "this is almost a poster-board for illegal immigration."

Now, I'm not really affected by the immigration issue, but it is always funny to me that right-wingers constantly feel insulted by this or that. Jesus, get a grip people. Life is too short to let this kind of stuff bother you. It's a freakin' billboard. It seems to me they are saying a lot of Mexicans live in the Los Angeles area and they may like to watch their news in Spanish. Jeesy, Chreesy, these isolationist nutters are five scoops of crazy.

I'm European: but was it not a post second world war 'republican' president that brought 'new' spanish speakers in ?

I thought hispanics where 125% republicans ? because it was the republican's that allowed the emigration ?
