I'm telling you to fuck off for your assumption that I am not strongly aware of the fact already. You, yourself, do come off as a racist at times.

by the way, if you hadn't noticed I never attacked your character once during this thread, merely your argument. and I only insulted you in response to your cursing me there, play nicer next time, stick to the issues, not the speakers, I'm not running for president remember?

Bradley, you have cut off the Black Knights limbs already. Don't listen to his pleads for a fight, despite the irritation you feel.

One of my best friends is an illegal immigrant and half of my friends are Mexican. It is a personal insult to assume that I don't consider them Americans and is a flagrant distortion of my argument to suggest that I do. But I suppose it isn't shocking of SuchFriends to engage in that level of intellectual dishonesty in order to perpetuate his dogmatic liberal sociological-centric interpretation. I knew I would regret taking him off of my ignore list.

Listen, I was not criticising your own racial sensitivities, nor calling you a racist, nor even making any kind of personal assessments of you own character, though you should know, the whole "i'm not racist my best friend is such-and-such" is a kind of cliche defense..

I was simply attacking your silly argument that

You have been arguing that because Mexican-Americans were not a part of the colonial "founding fathers" they play a limited role in the foundation of the US. But I disagree, if Mexican-Americans are in fact Americans, which we both obviously agree, then my argument is that THEIR experience is as EQUALLY formative and a part of the FOUNDATION of America as George Washington, because they are equally Americans and their experience is equally significant and formative of the over-all American experience.

I never made any assumptions about your own interpretation of people as americans, rather your assumption that america was only founded in 1776.

and I misunderstood your joke
