The Latino Image

April 22, 2009

Ok, it’s bad enough for the Latino image that the media are obsessed with the narco-killings in Mexico (so much so that my failure to possess a Heckler & Koch G3 Asault Rifle or equivalent weapon has made me feel less Mexican); but, now the big news is the addition of Daniel Andreas San Diego to the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list.
If you read my blog entries on Latino sovereign militia crazies or Latino consumer fraud, then you know my Weltanschauung has taken a beating lately.  But this Andreas San Diego thing is the last straw.   Tactfully, the media have not pointed out his ethnic persusasion, focusing instead on his animal rights activism and vegan diet (though they did mention that he was thought to be hiding in Costa Rica).  And thankfully they have not yet talked about a Latino wave of domestic terrorism–they haven’t done anything like that since the Zoot Suit era.  But lest you think this is an aberration, let me remind you about Jose Padilla, the Latin King/Muslim/Puerto-Rican/My Name is Pa-dill-a guy and his dirty bomb–to some, he was our very own Timothy McVeigh.
What is happening to us Raza?  Latino ponzi schemes, sovereign militias, domestic terrorism? Is this some new, perverse form of assimiliation that the framers of the controversial melting pot theory failed to forsee?  Or is it just that Latinos are now taking jobs as Angry White Men?
