Besides which, we don’t know that it was even a comparison between two Mexican restaurants. All we know is that one of them was Mexican. The other could be anything.
Well, there you go. One incident, in Mexico, not the US; at a Chinese restaurant, not a Mexican restaurant; it was meat prepped for the owner’s own consumption, not something secretly fed to unwitting customers; locals were so horrified that other Chinese restaurants saw customers drop by about 90%; the Chinese consul condemned it as illegal; other Chinese immigrants in Mexico condemned it harshly.
Therefore claiming that a Mexican restaurant in the US is rounding up stray cats to put them in food for unwitting white customers isn’t racist!
Boy do you ever know how to make your point.
[Edit: if your point is that in rare cases dog meat is eaten outside of China, sure, conceded–but I conceded it could happen in the post you quoted.]
Yes. The other one could be your bunghole. WE DON’T KNOW!!!
Drop it, dude. In a thread full of dummies making stupid “but it’s not racist!” claims, yours takes the cake.
Well, have you asked watchwolf what he meant? Maybe he meant exactly what I say he meant, but just didn’t express himself very well because he was in a hurry. Maybe English isn’t his first language and he didn’t adequately communicate his meaning. Maybe he’s just not very good at writing. Seems to me those are a few bases that you should’ve covered before pitting the guy, 'cos you kinda look like an uncharitable asshole at the moment.
So the thread is *full *of people who disagree with you but you’re still right.:dubious: Because you’re who? The arbiter of all things race related (or not)?
Say what you may about Chinese and Mexican restaurants, but I have documented proof that Italian restaurants serve dogs!
I have always had a big problem with claims of exotic meats substituting for utility grade beef: cost. Earthworms? Kangaroo? Horsemeat? Have you ever priced them? And cats; I’m permanently scarred from trying to get one out of a trap.
One thing I could never buy into with The Stray Cats was that they tried to cop this 50s greaser tough guy look, but none of them actually looked tough enough to pull it off. They looked more like kids dressed up for Halloween. If you put giant fireman boots and an oversized fire helmet
on one of them, they would look right in place knocking on your door and asking for candy.
Mock and deride all you want, but remember, they outvoted you before and can do it again. Those who voted for Trump don’t LIKE being condescended to, no matter how right you think you are, and they’re more likely to show up on Election Day.
Well they’re rockabilly so not sure if they’re supposed to look tough but you try holding your head up with all that pomade on your duck tale.
A whoo-ooooh!
My mother-in-law is Mexican. Let me introduce you and we’ll see how this goes. My husband, who did not spend his entire childhood in Mexico, might might think you were being funny. My Mother-in-law would definitely think you were being insulting. It might be kind of fun to watch. No one does outraged grande dame with quite her flair.
I’m having trouble finding a cite, so it’s possibly apocryphal.
Maybe this thread could be hijacked with recipes.

Would you say the above to a Mexican’s face, and would you be honestly shocked if they were offended by it? Would you tell them they were wrong to feel that way?
(I pose the same thing to all of the other people this thread is “full of”).
She was making a joke about a burrito made from dog meat. Cur = dog. Cur + burrito = currito.
Take one cat breast, lightly breaded and fried…
And Mexico isn’t a race, so it’s not racist! Pay attention!!
Sorry, Eonwe, I didn’t mean to ignore your question. I wouldn’t say that to anyone because it’s stupid and not funny or ironic in any way, not out of fear of offending them. I understand what you’re getting at so a better question might be, would I make that comment to a person of Chinese descent, to which I already said I would not. Just because I don’t find the comment showcased in the OP racist doesn’t mean I don’t find *anything *racist or that I condone insulting people.
If it’s all the same, I’ll let you and others handle “their” needs. My knees can’t take it.
Did you ever think when you eat Chinese
It ain’t pork or chicken but a fat Siamese?
Yet the food tastes great, so you don’t complain
But that’s not chicken in your chicken chow mein
Seems to me I ordered sweet and sour pork
But Garfield’s on my fork
He’s purrin’ here on my fork
There’s a cat in the kettle at the Peking Moon
The place that I ate every day at noon
They can feed ya’ cat and you’ll never know
Once they wrap it up in dough, boys
They fry it real crisp in dough
