And the Jewish men are greedy shopkeepers with mother issues.
And Roman Catholic priests like little boys.
And the Protestant Christian ministers are gay and/or women haters and/or corrupt money grubbers.
“La Raza” Speedy will be a member of MEChA, who is working to return the stolen Southwest (”Aztlan”) to the new bronze race.
Speedy will be a dilligent worker exploited by the grape farmers of California and chased by La Migra.
