Illegal Beaners Need not Apply

Imagine if employers had a sign in their business that read the same as the title of this post. Imagine the uproar that all the ILLEGAL immigrant groups and the other amnesty seekers would cause. The owner would be called a racist, threatened by the feds, have protest marches at his store and he would be drummed out of business but not before he had to attend sensitivity training. I imagine if he said that the word beaner was not meant as an insult to anyone it would make little difference. Given Dennis Kucinich’s opposition to the word ILLEGAL, the employer might get executed.

According to the Washington Times, “A Casa Furniture and Bedding store in Alexandria has been advertising easy credit with a twist: “no gringo papers” necessary.” The word gringo is an offensive word used to refer to a foreigner in Latin America [usually American or English]. An assistant manager says the word gringo is not meant to offend anyone.

Yeah, good luck with that. Of course, it will be overlooked and no one will require the sign to be removed. The ACLU will not file a law suit and these folks will continue to insult Americans in their own country.

BTW, the person tried to explaining that people needed no white papers and that is why the word gringo was used. The Spanish word for white is blanco so if they wanted to say white paper blanco would be the word used.

  1. “Gringo” is a loaded term, as you point out. Racist, even.

    Darn those dark skinned people and their offensive terms! Always keeping the white man down…

    Adam, if we have rules then everyone needs to follow them. Excusing it based on some misguided ideals does not make it better.

    Excusing this is no different than excusing the fact that ILLEGALS got here by breaking the law. It is not a matter of keeping the white man down, that won’t happen until 2050 but it is a matter of equality.

    I guess you think there should be affirmative action for people to make racist type remarks if they are not white. Imagine signs that said No Jews, No niggers, No kikes…. and on and on.

    It is offensive and it was meant to be that way. My opinion is that either everyone is allowed or no one is and if we want to make them pay just don’t shop at their stores.

    But fair is fair…

    Fair is fair? Don’t kid yourself…

    The problem is that “gringo” has never been used to systematically put down white people in this country. It is like the word cracker. What does either term mean to you except that they are derogatory words for what you are? They do not bring with them a shady past symbolism of crime and discrimination against your race or group.

    It’s the same as flag burning. You call flag burning a hate crime and hang a noose on your site with incredible ignorance of the fact that flag burning has never been used to oppress anybody. While deeply disrespectful to many people like veterans and yourself, it is nowhere near the same as a noose which has been used as a symbol to remind people of the time when African Americans were murdered simply for not being white.

    The whole concept of “reverse racism” is ridiculous and frankly by equating such nearly meaningless symbols to other symbols or words that have most certainly been used systematically oppress people in our country you trivialize the situation.

    So I should be offended as a descendant of the Cherokee that a team is named the Redskins?

    Gringo has never been used to systematically used to put down white people here but it has in Mexico. I could tell you a story about how they treat Americans and extort money from them when they get sick but it would take quite a while. My advice is if you ever visit Mexico and get ill RETURN TO THE US for CARE or you will be bled dry of all assets.

    Regardless of what you might think about equivocating, allowing any form of disparaging remarks leads to more and more until it is accepted and then becomes oppressive.

    I have no ignorance of the symbol of the noose. I just do not allow people to tell me one thing is free speech and one thing is not. Unless I am mistaken no one has been hanged for being black in about 50 years. A man was dragged to death and the people who did it went to jail or got the death penalty.

    White people have been killed by blacks and Hispanics just for being white. Besides the underreporting in the news, should we rail against a color or the crime? If we accept these kinds of things because of some past indiscretion or crime then we are saying it is OK to do these things.

    It is not.

    As for the Flag, burning one insults the troops and brings back memories of how they were treated when they returned from Vietnam. People in this country spat upon them, denied them jobs, and called them baby killers. It has the same psychological effect as displaying a noose.

    Since the left loathes the military their pain and sacrifices are ignored but the sensitivity of “protected” groups is always a concern.

    People like veterans and yourself is redundant. I am a veteran.

    That’s up to you.

    “Gringo has never been used to systematically used to put down white people here but it has in Mexico.”

    There’s differing forms of discrimination all over the world, and it does the situation in the US no good to bring that stuff into it.

    “Regardless of what you might think about equivocating, allowing any form of disparaging remarks leads to more and more until it is accepted and then becomes oppressive.”

    So does that mean you should stop calling Muslims “muzzies” even though that term has yet to become really offensive to anybody?

    “I have no ignorance of the symbol of the noose. I just do not allow people to tell me one thing is free speech and one thing is not.”

    Forget free speech. Use common sense. It’s free speech to protest soldier funerals but that’s one of the most disgusting things I’ve seen in decades. Hanging a noose because it’s free speech is insensitive and disgusting too.

    “White people have been killed by blacks and Hispanics just for being white. ”

    Of course but you’re skewing the facts here. Never in the US has there been systematic oppression of white people by blacks or Hispanics. To pretend your plight is anywhere close to the same because of random crimes is simply unfair.

    “As for the Flag, burning one insults the troops and brings back memories of how they were treated when they returned from Vietnam.”

    Oh cry me a river. One dark time in our nation’s history does not equal hundreds of years of oppression. Only in your head does the “left” loathe the military. In general the military is highly regarded in this nation and in case you haven’t noticed the number of liberals and conservatives remains about equal all the time.

  7. Big Dog says:

    This oppression of which you speak occurred hundreds of years ago. How long do we have to pussy foot around for something that was terrible but legal hundreds of years ago.

    Show me systematic oppression now…

    You miss my point, I don’t care if gringo is used or muzzie or beaner, or any other word. Just don’t punish one group and not the other. I will go with the person from the story, Muzzie is not meant to be offensive. Consider it a term of endearment.

    There has been no oppression of Mexicans. Only the ones who are here ILLEGALLY have to worry.

    I hate these fu&king illegal immigrantes. They can go fu*ck themselves. I wish the hell they’d move back to where they came from. Infact, send the africans home too. Nobody needs to be in this country who does not belong. Everyone needs to go back to their native countries and deal with it. These Spics come here and expect the hared working white man to pay their way. I cant stand the direction this country is heading. Mexicans are going to be ruling this place and any time a white person tries to do something about it hes a racist. Fu*ck all you beaners.
