I love mexican culture when it comes to boxing, BUT

why do mexicans make fun of mexican-americans by calling them pochos or whatever? if a mexican-american who was born in american can't speak spanish - they get made fun of. YET, SPANISH was FORCED upon the mexicans by the spaniards who invaded their country, ****d their women, etc. It seems like they too are betraying their REAL ancestry by speaking spanish?

[joe90210]

the mexicans recognize the might of the spaniards and are thankful to have had the oppurtunity of mixing with them

You are truly an idiot!!Mexico is just a country made up of different races like Whites, blacks, asians and the majority of Mexicans are of Native American and European mixture!! The original inhabitants of Mexico were Native Americans like Navajos, Apaches and Cherokees in the USA. A "Pocho" like you mentioned is actually just an American of Mexican Descent, but truly just American. I do not understand why people keep calling Americans of Mexican Descent, Mexican. An American of Mexican Descent cannot be Mexican because to be Mexican you have to had been born in Mexico!! It is like calling a African American "African" or "Nigerian". I believe most African Americans would feel insulted. Or If you called a white American with a Irish last name an Irish. I live in west Viriginia and I have a hard time over here because my kids keep being called Mexicans when in reality they were born in the USA, so arent they Americans??WTF

theyr reason why they call them mexicans is because they tend to identify people by race per example if the see a black they dont say oh look at that american they say hey look at that black. so when they see a latino they will not say oh look at that american because he doesnt look caucasian obviously. so they are not going to say look at that brown , they just say look at that mexican. even though is ignorant

so where does the mexican fighting spirit come from ?
spaniards ? american indians ?

probably a mix of both native americans were for the most part warriors and spaniards love to shed blood if you look at history so its a lethal combination

so where does the mexican fighting spirit come from ?
spaniards ? american indians ?

i'd say, entire subdivisions of men enslaved by montezuma, forced to build stuff for years and years and years...enduring all that hard slavery I feel, forged their bloodline with relentless combatants
