lol Mexican leader criticized for comment on blacks

<< < (3/6) > >>

Ozir:
I think dude was saying that Blacks in America got some fucked up jobs (in general)... because America continues to discriminate against minorities... and Mexicans got it even worse, because although Blacks have a fucked up situation (in general), they are at least legal citizens.  Many (if not most) Mexican immigrants are "illegals."  They have to take even the most fucked up jobs in the worst conditions... even the ones that other discriminated against minorities won't take.  Who can they complain to about their working conditions?  Nobody.  They'll get deported and separated from their families.  Many times these immigrants gotta take less than minimum wage because they can't complain about it.  They are definitely some of the hardest working people I know.

I can see how it sounded bad, but I don't think dude was trying to talk shit about blacks.

Stone Cold is Bout It, Bout It:

that's like saying


"We're doing jobs even retarded people won't do"

or

"We're doing jobs even lowlifes won't do"

or something like that.
