Behind closed doors, Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez made openly racist remarks, derided some of her council colleagues and spoke in unusually crass terms about how the city should be carved up politically.
The conversation remained private for nearly a year, until a leaked recording reverberated explosively Sunday and turned the focus of a sprawling metropolis toward Los Angeles City Hall.
By Sunday evening, three of Martinez’s council colleagues had called for her to resign. The leak had quickly become a new and incendiary issue in the coming Nov. 8 election, with candidates — some of them endorsed by Martinez — having to stake out positions.
Martinez and the other Latino leaders present during the taped conversation were seemingly unaware they were being recorded as Martinez said a white councilmember handled his young black son as though he were an “accessory” and described Councilman Mike Bonin’s son as “Parece changuito,” or “like a monkey.”
During the conversation with Councilmembers Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León and Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera, Martinez described Bonin at one point as a “little bitch,” according to a recording of the meeting reviewed by The Times. Martinez also mocked Oaxacans and said “F that guy … He’s with the Blacks” while speaking about George Gascón.

Libs killin’ libs. Not gonna change anything that matters.
I, for one, look forward to the Cholo v thug race war.
She is one who likes to toss around the racist label.
So what if Mike Bonin’s son is actually like a “little monkey”. I have referred to my own children as little monkeys occasionally in the past. Am I a bad person now?
Children of ANY COLOR used to be called ‘yard apes’ but that was long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away..................
Being able to speak or understand Spanish is not as uncommon as it used to be. They got found out.
That being said, it sounds like the little boy was acting up in a public setting and not being disciplined or corrected.
I’ve noticed oftentimes when a white adult adopts a black child, that adoptive parent appears to be overly lenient, with the child, as though to discipline or offer guidance would be interpreted by ‘others’ as being racist.
This doesn’t do the adoptive child any favors.
That’s how you end up with someone like a Colin Kaepernick.
All kids need to know there are firm limits on what is acceptable behavior.
20% vs 13%..........................

I have a granson who was a little monkey. He could and would climb anything. It was not unusual to see him up at the top of an open doorway or scaling two close enough walls by pressing against each with hands and feet. There was no tree he could not get up. I thought it was marvelous!
I don’t see why anyone would be surprised at this, in Los Angeles the Mexicans have always hated the Blacks and vice versa. Just go by any High School for easy confirmation.
I would also add that the most Racist People I have ever met were Brown, Black or in the Entertainment Industry.

I’m betting on the 20%.
Smarter, better organized, and they couldn’t possibly be worse shots...
I always used “rugrats”.. ;)
You do not see the issue with referencing some other person’s
black child as a monkey? Really?
You give the same weight to her comments, as parents saying
things tongue in cheek in jest?
You'll certainly never sit on the Supreme Court.
Si........................
The Liberal Leftists and our enemedia are not upset that these words were said. They don’t care if the words are open, unabashedly RACIST...nope, I will bet their biggest complaint is that this recording was leaked!
FACT is that, when it comes to political parties, it’s the democrats who have the most racist history.
But, they like to point their fingers at others, so that you won’t notice what they really are. Blacks in the democratic party, are just useful tools for their racist party.
