The media is biased and they do have a political agenda which defies logic, no doubt about it. There's not much we can do about that.

On the other hand, Shawna had jewelry in her possession which belonged to the survivor when she was apprehended. She may not have been the shooter, but she was a part of it. Being a part of it makes her just as guilty as the shooter. And, like it or not, her high profile in the anti illegal alien movement is a black eye on the movement itself.

As for the woman you dated, you describe her as "half Chicano and half German". I view the woman as an American, because racial ancestry does not define nationality, language, culture, religion, or political persuasion.

To describe one as a "Chicano" is to infer that person has a particular racial view and a certain political outlook. As well, there are Mexican nationals who would hate her for her relative lack of "Mexican-ness" as much as a few at this site who continually confuse American citizens of Latin American ancestry with illegal aliens who do need to be deported.

As for the assertion that Meso American Indians who have been dead for five hundred years are "still communicating", you have no farther to look than the elementary schools' curriculum in southern California to find the reason, as well as the racial nonsense pushed in college that what is intolerable racism in white people is somehow an expression of "cultural pride" in "minorities". The brain washing all filters down to brown skinned, tattooed criminal assholes who may have been born in another country or whose family has been American for over a hundred years.

I believe the "Aztec" art referred to mostly originated north of the border since the middle 60's and was originally kicked off by "University Mexicans".

I myself am no stranger to the myriad types and various attitudes of those of the "brown persuasion", at least enough to know "they" are not all the same identical person.
