Chepe: Pepe, why are Mexicans the most successful immigrants in America? Pepe: Well, it's simple math. Many of them Asians end up with a few high-paying jobs... but Mexicans end up with all the other jobs.

If ever there was a derogatory statement! One, assuming that people of Mexican descent can’t get good jobs no matter what, and two, dissing people of Asian descent…who have all kinds of ethnic backgrounds such as Japanese or Chinese or Malaysians or Vietnamese and etc. ;)

@Clark Kent: Back in the 1920s and 30s, it was Chinese immigrants who sneaked in across the Mexican border (because the US had strict immigration quotas.)

“They seem happy that a gringo speaks for them.” By your own statements, yesterday, you’re being deliberately insulting to Lalo. Tsk, tsk…

Orders? What orders? You’re ignoring my opinion that context (time, place, audience) determine the degree of insult, if any. You really do need to switch to herbal tea and calm down.

Now, now… “Calm down” is obviously a suggestion. You and I both know we don’t have the authority to order anyone to do anything so my comment had to be a mere suggestion. I did feel remiss, not recommending an herbal tea, though. A quick search on line suggests an amazing number of caffeine free teas. Chamomile, Dandelion, Valerian are all supposed to be useful. I haven’t tried any of them so doing a bit of research on your own is advisable. Enjoy the day…

Or maybe, just staying on his medications. Suggestion, not order.
