Thank God for white people you're not white.
That's why we live in harmony.
I actually don't mean that. I'm guessing your hispanic? I really am not racist. Name an ethnicity and I probably have several friends who fill that category... It bugs me when people say racist shit like that thoug, "thank god I am not white." It's almost like people don't think it's possible to be racist towards white people. It can only happen to minorities. Which is complete bullshit. It's cause of little comments like yours that we have so many issues today.
2.) Sorry to break it to you, but... You may be Latino, but I've seen your pictures... You're white.
I'm half guatamalan, people from that country tend to be much lighter than other hispanics, I look white my cousins looks white but I still think we have the right to call really pale people crackers

Amigo,
Guatemala is only 15% of European descent, versus 94% in Uruguay, 97% of Argentina, or even 37% in famously-mulatto Cuba.
If you think that people from Guatemala are lighter-skinned than most Hispanics, you have very limited experience among people of Latin descent and probably come from a WHITE, European-descended Guatemalan family.
Also, who have you ever called a cracker and what was their response?

okay, that makes sense, although most of my guatemalan family is in LA where the population is 50% mexican, and mexicans are definitely darker than guatemalans. so I guess I admit, you're right, we're not that light when you consider the entire hispanic population but in terms of LA, well let's just say we could pass for white people
and I've called Conan O'Brian a cracker. he never got offended he just continued with his bad Monologue
I've heard rumors of their being blond-haired, blue-eyed, pale-faced mexicans (As in latinos from the nation of mexico, the local yokels here in Washington get them all confused). How true is this? just curious.

It's.... TRUE!!!!!!
Most Americans just don't seen them very often, because they tend be the oppressors, not the oppressed, so they're not so likely to flee their homeland in search of bread. They occasionally drive their SUVs to tourist sites in Texas, though.
The other day at work I met two beautiful blond Mexican women, wearing deliciously chic and stylish shoes, and their six blue-eyed, charming children. They were on vacation. I translated for them for a few moments and they offered me a $20 tip. I did not accept.

Perhaps she really enjoyed the experience.
of course, and it makes the majority-white class laugh

Almost as weird as the albino black from last comic standing.

Sorry, I just couldn't help but comment on the double-entendre in your original sentence.

Really? Then explain to me how Bush got elected twice, if we are not truly a nation of morons. "All Americans are not like this", but i'd say it's clear that they're in the majority.
excuse me, but i think you are saying you dont think the people are capable of governing themselves?
You can say i dont like bush, or bush is a moron, but when you say "America is stupid for voting for bush twice" you cross the line between "Hey, i dont like the president" to "America is stupid and the people are not capable to pick the leader they want to pick"

I have heard of this place called America. I'm sure I can find it on a map someplace if you give me enough time. The only thing I know from reading most of the posts here on CC is that it is responsible for most of the problems in the world.

Don't use America as a scapegoat. Don't forget, England did the same thing. So did Spain before England. It's just a cycle.
