      Because he was ‘in the way’ of them deporting other Mexicans for not assimilating enough fast enough.

      Two Americans with Mexican sounding names killed an American.

      Are you sure you don’t work for ICE?

                Not really, I was thinking the exact same thing when I heard the name. These ICE agents are exactly the ones that would be accused of being an illegal Mexican immigrant under the current way ICE is functioning, and it feels ironic that they’re the ones killing other Americans for ICE’s sake.

                  If you’re first thought on hearing a Mexican sounding name is that they can’t be American you would probably make a good ICE employee.

                  It doesn’t matter if it’s hypocritical of them, it’s still racism on your behalf.

              It’s ok that I’m racist to this person, because I don’t like them!

              So ironic, so progressive.

                If my suggestion was correct, tell my how you think the other guy is racist when he doesn’t think they are actually Mexican?

                  What.

                  Lmao. What do they teach in schools these days… I don’t think that your suggestion is correct. The person called them Mexicans because they had Latino names.

      How do you know they’re Mexicans ?

      They are Spanish names they could be Venezuelan or Brazillian.

      They consider themselves to be European and a cut above the native American population in Mexico.

    Oh god… This is SNL level embarrassment shit right there!

    What the heck are Hispanic people doing in the ranks of that demonic org?

    I guess there’s bad people no matter where you go, so that’s a simple explanation.

      They get a $50k sign on bonus in 5 years, assuming Trump is still in power, and actually pays the bill.

      That’s alot of assumptions, but none of these shit for brains are too clever so who really knows what they were thinking.

        Got some bad news for those folks. It’s 10K a year in good standing but if they fall out of good standing (a vaguely defined measuring stick) they have to pay back the bonus…going all they way back to signing.

        Just another assumption for them.

        Pretty low dude. Historically some of the most racist groups toward 2nd generation Irish immigrants were 1st wave Irish immigrants. Humans are impressively fucking stupid which is why I don’t have any.

      The leader of the Proud Boys was hispanic.

      The Right deliberately started including hispanics / Latinos as white people years ago. Note that I’m not saying anyone is or isn’t white, only that the “definition” of a terrible group was changed to capture votes. White supremacists can fuck off.

        SNL has had several skits regarding this sort of thing and the reaction of black people and white people to seeing themselves as causing trouble out on the streets.

    I wonder what MAGA thinks of two guys with those names killing a white American man practicing his 1st and 2nd amendment rights properly on his own streets? Is there a limit to their hypocrisy? Are they just that insulated from actual news that they cannot even learn about it?
