I know where Oaxaca is, have been there. My friends are all just regular Mexican descendants. They aren't racist. They are full of diversity, isn't that the key word? They have caucasian and black friends, most are firefighters and their wives, and that is definitely a diversified bunch.

So now we are putting the 'racist' tag on Americans of Mexican descent too? All because they don't like illegal immigration either.
Simply amazing!

It wasn't "all because" that at ALL. In fact it wasn't because of that. It was because of their use of oaxacans as a slur for illegal aliens, thus linking illegal aliens with a specific region and people group.

It would be akin to when Americans are discussing illegal aliens they sneer, "Mexicans" and sound as though they are spitting out the word.

Does that make sense?
