Leftists may not believe it, but we impressionable youth of that era did not believe all Hispanics were banditos or lazy mice from Speedy Gonzalez cartoons or slow-witted “Jose Jimenez” types. We just thought they were characters created for our amusement.

this What? I made a comment. I didn’t demand anyone agree or demonize those who don’t. FDGs & PCs do both.

Oh, right. I’m pretty sure that many Mexican-Americans were just HOWLING with laughter when they were (and still are) portrayed as stupid, lazy good-for-nothings who wouldn’t amount to anything. Sarcasm
