re: Mexico Cleared of chants

Are you trying to say there's no Mexican dialect of Spanish? Because that's pretty stupid in its own right.


Secondly, it doesn't matter in what context you attempt to use the word. We all call our friends f@gs when they do something we don't like, we don't mean it to be that they're going blow some dude's dick right off. But it doesn't matter.


I'm not a racist but I can't go on TV and yell NI****!!!! every time Kevin Love shoots a free throw. It doesn't matter that he's not black and it doesn't matter if I'm trying to use it in a different context.


For the record, I don't care that they chant it. I personally think it's funny seeing small children and old people yelling it. But don't come in here and try to play stupid, vato.

Right. They have different meanings in different local dialects. I've talked to people from several Latin american countries and they all have different derogatory slang.

Just like insults in American English can be different from English.

Maybe you just don't understand English.

My whole point is that it doesn't matter what context they're saying they're using the word in IMO

So what you're claiming is that it would be like an arena full of Americans yelling "homosexual" instead of "f@gg0t"?

So it's like how we all know 'Mexican' means the lowest form of human, but when we all say it we aren't necessarily meaning it that way some of the time?
