I thought guns were illegal in Chicago?

Oh that’s right, only for law abiding citizens.

"(Jimenez) could have used this money in any number of ways — to assist friends and family, contribute to the community, sponsor others wrongfully convicted or simply live in comfort for the rest of his natural life — instead he chose to build a gang," Assistant U.S. Attorneys Michelle Petersen and Kathryn Malizia wrote.

Seriously? You believed this?

My wife on my homepage is Charleston raised with Injun blood and dark skin and brown eyes

Darker than nearly all my South American gurls

All my Colombian and Venezuelan darlings were more anywhere from Megan Fox monas to maybe Emily Ratatowski looking in color and features

I had a Cuban gal who was Spanish by birth

Alabaster with jet black hair

Brasil girls with blonde hair green eyes

Americans confuse Latino with Mexican and Honduran and Guat Indian Latinos

Short dark stubby and thick

That’s just them

Lots more folks to the south of there for a long ways

My Brasil ex was Maronite ethnic born in Rio and fairly dark
Salma Hayek

Same DNA....LEB SYRIAN CHRISTIAN ARAB

So did he pay taxes on the $25 million?

the good that I could do with 25 million.....

Mexicans and other South Americans forget that they speak Spanish or Portugese...because the Spanish and Portugese infiltrated them long ago...as well as plenty of Germans and Italians...

notice that on ALL the Spanish tv shows you don't see the Indian type...you see the beautified light skin light hair European type Latinos...

Yeah, it is kind of interesting how these labels emerge. Apparently “black” is considered a race. So is “white”. But Hispanic is more of a language / ethnicity (as far as government forms go, etc.)

I never heard the term “white Hispanic” before the news media labeled George Zimmerman with it. But his last name is Jewish. Go figure.

Thaddeus Jimenez is white. The gang he formed is connected to his family gang affiliation, which was a white gang that had Hispanic gang rivals.

So I thought it was quite odd that his last name is Hispanic, but he gravitates back to the racially associated gang membership.

It appears he did not fit in too well in prison. I wonder if that had anything to do with having a mixed heritage and a white gang affiliation.

Most Hispanics who claim they are Hispanic really aren’t, and even then couldn’t correctly define what that means.

The Mexican gov’t claims it’s population is racially homogeneous which is the biggest LOL I’ve ever heard.

I’m of the opinion, that only those of Spanish ancestry can claim to be Hispanic. If they want to use “Latin”, fine...
Prove then you’re Portuguese, French, Spanish, Italian or Romanian then.

90% of what passes for Latin or Hispanic in Latin America is a lie.

I thought, for at least the past 20 years, that poverty doesn’t cause crime. During the Depression, the poverty rate was higher than it is now. Now, the violent crime rates are higher. Crime is caused by people who have low morals.

I heard of white Hispanics in 1991, when I read about the 1990 Census results. The Census Bureau said that Hispanics can be any color. Some white people live in Mexico and Puerto Rico. Almost everyone, who lives in the Dominican Republic, is black. Peru has people whose ancestors came from China and Japan. All of those people are Hispanics because they live in Spanish-speaking places.
