Now, after years of careful propaganda and subversion, you have a generation of men that have mostly never even touched a gun and are uncomfortable at even the thought. Coupled with emotional female voters, yep...we're fucked.

As a Hispanic I personally don't see any Pro Second Amendment work being directed towards the Spanish speaking communities. I have never seen an ad or article written in Spanish. I don't see or hear commercials broadcasted in Spanish. I don't see public outreaches into the Spanish speaking communities by gun rights organizations.

As an American, nothing should be in Spanish. The "Spanish speaking communities" need to learn English and conduct business in English, and red the Declaration of Independence in English and the Constitution in English.

Fracturing the country into separate groups is what hurts the gun cause. We need common touchstones to function as a country, and it starts with speaking English.

Sorry, but that's how it is.

I am not in any way religious but discussions like this always bring that tale to mind.
GOD made all the people building the tower speak differently so they COULD NOT WORK TOGETHER.

People need to live in the real world.

Bible Thumping doesn't get across the majority of Americans.

But for any statewide race in Florida, you have to be in Spanish. Both Scott and DeSantis just were, big time. Thank God.

The US acquisition of Puerto Rico, Florida, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California says you're wrong. All those areas were Spanish settled and colonized and their populations were absorbed into the fabric and culture of the US. Furthermore, they were made Citizens when these territories were acquired.

Many a Tejano fought and died for freedom against Mexican Despotism when Texas fought for independence and later against Mexico in the US-Mexico War of 1846-1848. The 65th Infantry Regiment of the US Army fought a bloody battle in Korea against overwhelming number of Chinese Communist Troops and led a bayonet charge to kick the commies out.





The unit was mostly Hispanic made up of Puerto Ricans and Americans of Mexican ancestry.

In WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and today in the War on Terror, a shit ton of Hispanics have served, bled, and died for this country.

Hell, prior to WWII the largest spoken language in the US other than English was German. There were German Social Clubs, Newspapers, Magazines, etc. All marketed specifically to the German American Communities scattered across the country. Guess what, they all proudly served the country when needed to.

Thanks for promoting that gun owners are a group of racist bigots.
