Mexican(s) is a legitimate geopolitical descriptor and as such the word should always be capitalized. To present the descriptor in the lower case form implies cultural bigotry which does not serve either its author or this forum well. Take care. Words have meanings.

We exercise "cultural bigotry" against France and the French all the time here. mexico and mexicans do not deserve to be treated any differently or be given any special treatment here or anywhere else. Your PC BS does not serve you or this forum well. Cram it.

I substantially agree with the quote. The examples presented, however, both French and Mexican, were geopolitical and not the subject of this discussion.

I also suspect that if the Spiff account entered into a dialogue with a US citizen of either French or Mexican ancestry, the values of the respondent would be ascertained, not assumed.
