I agree with you on this you should be able to speak what ever you want. but if you come to this country you should be able to at least be able to speak english alittle bit. If they want to make it the only thing that is used then hey guess what if you dont want to speak it then dont come. On another note i have been a fan for awhile and sundays show was great. But you only scrached the surface on the whole white poeple thing. We cant say things like you said with out being raciest but it dont work the other way around. if someone calls me a cracker, or trailer trash its not raciest but if i say something back I am. what the f*** is that and damn it i dont like it just as much as anyone eles would. dude there is so much more to this hell you could do a whole show on it. hell just ask i got a ton of shit that happens in every day life that is just f***ed up. Hell i am bleeping myself on here.

You are so right !! I am Canadian I speak English not Canadian and I DO NOT speak French Its so messed up in Canada with the English/ French crap. In Ontario all packages have to have both languages printed on it but ... you go to Quebec and ita all French .. . When I was moving to the U.S I had to go to Montreal for my paper work and while I was there I had to pretend I was American because the French HATE English speaking Canadians!!
My name is Gail and I am CANADIAN!

Being from a state on the border with Mexico,
I feel vindicated when I get to butcher Their
language!! BTW-is it politically correct to call it Mexico or just refer to it as that hot sandy place that resembles HELL?
We can learn something from them--if we had police like their federales, NO ONE would be talking!!

Hola Carlos!
Last week I, a white woman, had a "moment" with a 6'7" tall black dude from the deep south.
I was trying to move a heavy patio planter and he said...."I'll do that. " I said, "well the skinny gay dudes who sold me this artsy piece would not be able to do it."
He said..."and the Mexicans aren't here, and so it's asking the darkie, because we are so strong." Yes missus I cain do it!"
Well, I was laughing and got BEET RED and I was so embarassed! He said it real funny and we are friends but
at that moment I felt transforrmed into a white woman on a plantation! Insane! White Catholic guilt!
I am a simgle white woman aged 56, and I COULD NOT SAY A THING TO HIM!!!! I was laughing so hard but underneath I was then thinking...."was I sub-consciously acting on the cliche?" Then dammit, I thought "no...my parents came from Russia and we did not have freaking slaves!"....so, .thank you Carlos....for illuminating how effed up and confusingly PC everything is at this point. Us white folk are really screwed at the moment it's true.
Last week I was accused of being a rascist Jew by a black woman I had never met. hahaha. I am not Jewish, but have a German last name (ex-husband), but I am really of white Russian descent. God. Can't everyone just be AMERICAN, that is, unless it is a police radio transmission....."skinny white woman on the 101 on a high speed chase..." Keep on calling it like it is...and that is CONFUSED, but absurd and funny. I love everyone's differences....(especially their foods), but your dialogue nails it.
Peace. gigi

Hey Carlos
I would like to comment on the whole Michael Richards incident. The black guy in the audience who started the whole thing off when he called Michael "Cracker", and then it snowballed, he never once was mentioned after that and never once was pointed out and never once was named because what he said to him was, if you want to get technical "a racial slur" just like what the black guy said, if you want to get technical. But it's always the contriversay of the "racially motivators", aka PC, that want to stir things up and play victim, and put the lamb out to slaughter because people don't want to focus on what is more important in the world, [media], because it's something that people need to talk about it and talking takes thinking and thinking takes time and dicision making. People these days need quick fixes, cut and dry, black and white, short term. What is more important in the world today is long term and not a quick fix and people are not trained for the long term. That is what needs to be changed. To focus on the long-term of what is happening in America today.

I agree, english should be the spoken word. It is a universal language. If you live in Florida, and you are taught school in spanish, when you graduate, where can you go???? The world is a big place. You have to speak english so you can participate. Bye the way Carlos, love the show!!!!!
