So you're offended, that they're offended. That offends me.

BTW - This is basically proof that you have no clue (just accept it-
everyone else has). It's interesting that you see LULAC as  "radical" and
"leftwing". So where the people that founded this country.

This reminds me of a bit of Texas history. Did you know that farmers in
south Texas, used to lie to migrant Mexican workers. They would tell them
that the workers would be paid well if they traveled to their plantation
and work for them. When the workers would get there, the farmers paid them
much less, or nothing at all. If the workers tried to leave, the
landowners would send the police or even the Texas Rangers ( from about
1910-60, the Texas Rangers only job was beating up minorities, BTW) to
arrest the workers.  They would quickly be fined and forced to work their
debt off to the farmer that originally deceived them. Can you say
"Slavery"? 

Lulac was founded to stop such injustices. Though, they were not very
successful, especially in Texas. Radical? There is a problem if
you see other's belief that they should have rights as Radical. But, then
again, there's also a problem if you think being "radical" is a bad thing.
Leftwing? Kinda? But I seen your point. Liberals are almost as
moronic as conservatives. 

FYI :
 Rightwing == {Communists, Religious Fanatics,...}
 Leftwing == { Human Rights Advocates, The founding fathers of
this country (although a bit hypocritical), socialists}

I don't think any of this will get through to you BTW. You're too far
"gone". I'm just posting this to make fun of you. See you have no
credibility. Since everyone makes fun of your stupidity - I just though I
would too; just to make myself feel better. One day, you'll figure it out
(hopefully). Of course, then you'll probably try an kill yourself.

I don't think LULAC has any muscle here anyway. Pepsico knows
that if every single Hispanic stopped eating at taco bell, they'd loose
absolutely no business. But, that doesn't excuse those STUPID comercials!

namaste,
Mark
