No - but if you read my post - I specifically called out 'illegals'. They way you describe things is that this is racist. Whatever.

Not my intent, just saying there is a time and place for these kinds of jokes and in my opinion, this isnt it.

I'm more upset by the thread's title. It implies that Mexicans are only good for mowing lawns.

You could have easily posted a comment about this lawn care system without insulting an entire nationality, but that wouldn't be the SUMBAN way, would it?

But not all Mexicans are illegal immigrants who mow lawns in the US. Your thread title insults all Mexicans, not just those who are in our country illegally.

Let me clue you in a on a little secret. There is nothing you can do in this world that doesn't insult someone somewhere. So get used to that fact because we live here on a planet called Earth.

You have jumped off the PC cliff in a full swan dive. It is this PC attitude that is the cause of most of the problems in the world since people tend to look the other way instead of confronting the problem, all in the name of PC of course.
