yes my mom is going to buy them. and i am going to sell them (and maybe someone is going to buy them) and so what? all this PC crap is annoying

and before i get lectured on how its racist and ignorant blah blah blah, i say whats good for the goose, is good for the gander. alot of people in this country still consider many Mexicans as "wetbacks" or "illegals" or "go back to your own damn country" but you don't see me getting all dramatic about it. you just shrug your shoulders and move on.

shyt it's hard enough being a woman, and working in a corporate environment without having to be looked down on by other minorities (we are in the same boat -but I still get the 'she's just here because she's hispanic' bs)

i can understand why this might be drama if the US issued these stamps, but Mexico doesn't have the same history with black racism as the US does. god, my mom's nickname is "La More" which is short for Morena, which is "darker one". but its a term of endearment. that's the culture and it's not that big of a deal (to me or my family).

christ, its not like they pulled a proposition 187 like the US did. they're just stamps.
