Tell me when you find a country called "Hispania" on the map,Jack.

Oh,please. That has absolutely _nothing_ to do with your statement that
implies all Hispanics are "barbarians" because of one suspicious tradition.

If you're so adamant about the importation of supposedly alien cultures
into American society,tell me this-since a good deal of the (European)
ethnic diversity of this country occured because of immigration during
the 19th and early-20th centuries,how come our precious social stability
didn't whither away _then_,if the importation of non-Anglo Saxon cultures
is such a bad thing?

Likewise,what about immigrants from China,Vietnam or Korea? If I remember
correctly,these groups are less prone to violence than even native-born
US citizens for the most part and obtain a higher degree of education
than even "white" ethnic groups,to boot. Do they fit into your stereo-
type?

You still haven't detailed how one incident justifies your slandering of
an entire ethnic group as "barbarians".

Correction: Take _your_ head out of your ass and look around. If you're
going to resort to stereotyping,I'll continue to stereotype _you_ as a
hateful little moron who types up thought-free posts solely due to the
fact that your stupidity is only matched by your degree of half-assed
moralizing towards anyone who doesn't fit your deluded norm of "civilized
behavior",such as it is.
