pinches racistas de mierda

jaja. you know, (obviously) the u.s. is so racist. but government agencies often at least try to hide it with a bit of veneer. sometimes, though, they just come out and say what they really mean. like: if you are hanging out in the forest speaking spanish & listening to mexican music you must be a dangerous criminal!

the u.s. forest service was recently forced to retract an official warning to beware of campers in national forests who eat tortillas, drink Tecate beer and play Spanish music because they could be armed marijuana growers...



from ap:

Michael Skinner, a law enforcement officer with the U.S. Forest Service in Colorado, said warning signs of possible drug trafficking include "tortilla packaging, beer cans, Spam, Tuna, Tecate beer cans," and campers who play Spanish music. He said the warning includes people speaking Spanish.

The warning signs were included in a slide presentation put together for drug agents in Colorado and the public.

Skinner said this may or may not represent criminal activity, but are indicators and he urged any campers who encounter long-term campers meeting the profile to "hike out quickly" and call police.

...

Marvink Correa, spokesman for the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, said federal officials are painting an unfair stereotype of Hispanics.

"When I go camping, I'll be sure to play nothing but Bruce Springsteen," he said.

but really, they could save themselves the trouble of looking for tortilla packages in the forest, if they would just legalize. i mean, come on ¡¡por dios!!


please play the following loudly next time you are in a national forest:

we will be burning : sean paul



legalización : ska-p



la guardia : la gossa sorda



mis tres animales : tucanes de tijuana
