Well, it does ask if you're Hispanic on most forms that ask to identify one's ethnicity.

In true fashion poor behavior and attacking minorities is staunchly defended on this forum lol.

Nationality is not a race though. And making a tasteless remark isn’t attacking.

This politically correct world we live in is Way Too Sensitive! The comment wasn’t nice, but it wasn’t “Racist!”

The correct term is Jingoist, not Racist.

If they’re throwing out people for saying stuff like that, they need to take a serious look into the ethnic insults thrown in Coach O’s direction. It’s okay to openly mock coach O because of his heritage/ethnicity but some dude gets thrown out for yelling that bull crap? Not that coach O gives a shite, but why the double standard? I think we know the answer

O is not considered part of the victim class. Big difference.
