The problem is NOT going to be solved when the Catholic priest goes to wedding receptions, quineaneras, parties, etc. and drinks with everyone else. The problem can NOT be solved. We are going to end up with monumental problems from this culture clash.

[Shalom Israel]

The solution is clear: reinstate Prohibition.

Mexicans have always had a drinking problem.. We used to live in So. Calif., and every Sunday morning you would see them lined up with their pats and pans for menudo to combat a hangover.

No problemo...
as long as they dry-out by age 40,
and if we pass a guest-worker program,
they can still have one of those jobs "Americans don't want to do" --- President of the United States.

Screw the drinking, what about the illegal immigration? Stopping the illegal immigration stops the drinking.

[wideawake]

Wow - thanks MMTU. You didn't even wait for a post before you started spewing anti-Catholic drivel.

[ladyjane]

That's right. It's the Catholic priests who are causing this!!

Deport all Catholic priests immediately.

[End Times Sentinel]

My favorite part of the massive influx of illegals to my neighborhood is the swerving, long, warm puddles they leave as they urinate while staggering down the sidewalk.  It sounds like a brief, soft, cloud burst on a warm spring night...

Doesn't quite smell like that, but you can't have everything can ya?

"HISPANICS' DRINKING A GROWING PROBLEM"

I am a "hispanic" immigrant, albeit arriving at a very young age, short of my ninth birthday.

Even then I knew that, among other weaknesses, alcoholism was associated with the culture I had left behind.

It affected me deeply, and transformed my life to the point that recreational drinking offends me. I will drink socially, but even then, reluctantly.

This alcoholism problem among hispanics is neither unusual nor new. As I stated, it is a characteristic of the culture! But, obviously, fortunately not in the genes.

[wtc911]

Nobody drank more than the Irish when we got here. Even in parts of the city that are no longer Irish, such as Jackson Heights, you'll see an Irish Gin Mill on every other corner. The stop on the way home was part of the culture...we grew out of it.

It is the other cultural disconnects that will cause the problems.

[Tax-chick]

And all those St. Patrick's Day parades have got to stop!

[ HISPANICS' DRINKING A GROWING PROBLEM ]

And they SMOKE TOO...

[MineralMan]

Hilarious. We get the anti-Catholic thing right in the comment to the initial post. Bravo! You win the most egregious anti-Catholic post of the day award. Hip-Hip-Hoorah!

[Pondman88]

Why did God invent whiskey?

To prevent the Irish from running the world.

[truemiester]

MMTU you have got to have a screw loose if you think that its all the priest fault for illegal immigration.

[Wolfie]

Let me know when it gets up to the level of the drunk whites.

I'll be sure to discuss that with the Catholic priest that is coming over to our house for a few beers after Stations of the Cross tomorrow night!

Thanks for the heads-up to the problem /sarc

[BulletBobCo]

The Solution...

Menudo...The Breakfast of Champions!

[samcgwire]

Tekillya?

[Old Professer]

Invite them all to the local bar for an evening of conviviality and arrest them after the third beer.
