A Mexican newspaper condemned American spring breakers who reportedly chanted "Build that wall!" during a family show on a tourist ship off Cancun.
In an editorial Friday, the Yucatan Times called the singing during a "Pirate Ship" attraction an act of "xenophobia and discrimination against Mexicans within their own country." The newspaper added that the "racist hymn" wasn't an isolated incident and that numerous complaints about spring breakers have been lodged by Mexican tourist industry workers.
The paper referred to a social media post by Anaximandro Amable, a Peruvian who was aboard the ship:
"Today I was with Suly, my wife (who is a native of Mexico), watching an entertainment show off the coast of Cancun aboard a boat, and at the end of the show, a flock of Americans (maybe under the influence of alcohol, or maybe not), began to sing the infamous 'Build that wall' chant louder and louder'."
Mexican tourists aboard the ship reportedly complained about the singing, but the spring breakers did not stop.

Doesn’t Mexico welcome foreigners to engage in political activities?
Vicente Fox, call your office.
Vincente Fox is no longer the president.
Where did I say he was?
After putting up with all the La Raza types in America grabbing their nuts, flipping the bird, hoisting the Mexican flag and shouting about the reconquista, all I can say about this is “Payback’s a BITCH!”
Just explain to Mexico that the wall isn’t intended to keep Mexicans out, but to keep Americans in.
What? Americans dissed Mexicans in Mexico? I thought we couldn’t help that, we were the Ugly Americans, so why are they expecting us to be Beautiful?
(It is kind of sad. Sounds like a drunk frat party kind of stunt. But still. Based on just comparative incidents, Americans have a loooooooong way to go before the score would be even.)
After mexican chants of osama! osama! at the soccer game in mexico when mexico and U.S. played after 911, one that loves America would be less than sad.for mexico. Am not at all sad mexico’s chickens are coming home to roost.
Mexico should retaliate by building a wall to keep the American devils out.
Good for them. Nice to see we have some kids that are not total snowflakes and not afraid to wave our flag, express pride in America and put Mexicans in their place. No more PC.
Every damn country around the globe must secure its borders. The reckless, systemic immigration flow is destroying established, responsible societies everywhere.
This doesn’t even have sports partisanship and metaphor as an excuse.
Make America as low as Mexico again.
Every country that wants to be blessed, needs to define what it is going to comprise.
Leaving back door unlocked is not viable model. Or shortly it becomes a riffraff refugee camp.
The fallacy of the excluded middle.
It is possible to be neither snowflake nor turdball.
But regrettably today’s world shoots at one both on the fence and the one not on the fence. Staying Safe, as is life, is but a vapor
Non sequitur / how in blue blazes does this apply, and to what?
