How is it politically incorrect?


who the hell knows what's politicaly correct or incorrect these days. I know a teacher that got into pretty serious trouble calling a student a Mexican one time. the kid's parents were both born in fricking mexico and the kid was too. so what the hell was he? it gets where you either walk on eggshells or just frick it and call people what you want to. "hey, did you hear the one where this coonass, dago and chink walked into this bar........."

I remember my dad telling me back in the 70's that people from Mexico don't like to be called "Mexicans". They prefer to be referred to as "Hispanic". And that was back when we didn't even know what PC was. Among other things, it probably has something to do with the consensus that Mexican Spanish occupies the bottom rung on the ladder of Spanish dialects. It's like the redneck English spoken in most of the South.
