and more importantly how they justify that not being ignorant or racist ,
I mean they seem to have this trait more than any other ethnic group in the nation
From living in a hispanic community for years they thought I was automatically the racist becuase I was a gringo,,and they would try to talk down to me whenever they could
Why do they assume as acommunity that whites are generally racist,,,,they are the ones the have the auperiority complex
can anyone relate,,,,,, btw, i love latinos I just don't get thier mentality and ignorance sometimes

I like your question. I too live in a, well I live in Miami. My father is as white as bread while my mother is full bred Cuban. I don't speak Spanish well and without an ascent so Ive been called a gringo before. My skin is pale while I have mainly Hispanic features. All my life I have been expected to speak and act like a Cuban or Hispanic to be correct. Down to the point, I think anyone with a large shared ethnicity group behind them feels like they are backed up enough to be a racist and not have the title. I assure you though, that in any sort of neighborhood and any sort of family can be racist and usually feels superior to any other ethnicity.

Ok, I dont know, maybe you were right at the beginning when you lived in that place and some people had an attitude, but by generalizing like you do, you are being racist. I read and read again what you wrote and I think you should look deep inside of yourself and see what is really bothering you. I am latina and I dont automatically assume that other people is racist, only when they write: "I love latinos, I just dont get their ignorance sometimes"... I mean, you could have said "I love latinos in general but some of them are like this"...It was you who assumed things. You assumed that latino=ignorant, and you shouldnt have.

Im 26, my favourite was once Rick Rude and Bret Hart. Then The Rock and Austin. Now how do i appear pronouncing that I adored Adrian Adonis and I was once three whilst he died? These youngsters do not know squat approximately the angle technology and its unique for the technology we grew up on. 25-35 had hogan within the complete eighty's and ninety's. we had Flair, Savage, Sting, Piper (kinda), and extra do it for goodbye. Now, all of the 'key avid gamers' within the perspective technology are retired or moved on. Triple H, Undertaker, Big Show and Y2J are the final of that group. Really Big Show and Y2J are facet of the Monday Night Wars, so i placed that within the identical magnificence. But Rock Hasn't wrestled complete time due to the fact 02-03. Same for Austin. So how might those little snots realize approximately the greats

ok who ever said that we said we thought we were the best? some may have this kind of pride in ourselves but some not all americans also are ignorant and they think they are better than everyone else....why do you always accuse latinos? why dont you look at your own culture and you will also see the deffects you have....omg come on the latinos wouldnt talk to you because you were an american or a gringo! thats just BS and you know it....i've known many latinos and none of them have tried to ever put me down....your just ignorant you hate them so much that you make up any excuse to keep hating them....

Whatever ethnic group you are in you feel that you are the best. Many Latinos have been subjected to racism, prejudice and bigotry, and if they come across as acting superior it could be a defense mechanism.

I have Latino friends and they are not at all like that I believe that every race has the tendency to come off like that at times i think that is their way of showing pride in where they come from that does not make them racist i, who are we to judge over something that we are all guilty of at times

hahaha...we are talking about people who do come from a 3rd world country sort of speaking....but who really knows???? i have mexican friends and i know for a fact there are a lot of ******* amongst them like in all races.... you would probably get the answer you need from a mexican who has some intelligence.... for example, you need to talk to someone who lived most of their childhood in an all mexican area, in the ghetto, and then bettered themselves by getting the hell out of it and seeing there is more to life than idiots going around killing or living off of welfare or whatever ....these people who have gotten away from that kind of lifestyle are the ones i enjoy speaking with.... hopefully someone who has risen above the stupidity will answer your question.....good luck...

well... maybe it's because whites have had their share of racism too and now... it's reflected on... every other race. not blaming you, just your ancestors. must be a pain though, to live in such prejudice. latin dancing's fun. you should try it, maybe it'll "reconnect" you with your inner latino. everyone has one.
