    If George Lopez has anything to do with it, I have a feeling this movie is going to be hilarious.

    possibly...but it looks like they're trying to steer away from the old mexican speedy, lol.

    Can't say I blame them...Speedy for them would be like Sambo for us, typical of what people expect from a specific ethnicity.

    The Speedy cartoon was racist to begin with.

    true...although I dont think I noticed when I was younger...Old guardsmen like Pat 'Uncle Buck' Buchanon probably were aware of the situation and loved it even still.

    I mean, just listen to some of his tirades about Mexicans............

    now that I think about it, they probably came up with 'Speedy,' when entertaining the thought of one aspect of difficulty, associated with running down illegals at the border.


    :rolleyes:

    You should read this about George Lopez racist tirade against Black people.

    Apparently George Lopez went on a racial tirade against Black people by calling them “Nigger” last night at the Nokia Theater.Lopez reportedly used the Spanish racist term “Mayate” which means “a black beetle” but it’s an EXTREMELY DEROGATORY way to refer to African Americans or against any person who is seen as black.According to Splashnews here is what George Lopez said during the show:


    George was going on about text alerts – then he said we have to send each other texts saying Mayate Alert, Mayate Alert. Anyway, Mayate means [The N Word] in Spanish. Some of the Mexicans were making sounds like – Whoa I can’t believe he just said that. See some Black people think negro/negra/negrito/negrita means [The N Word] in Spanish. So, he thought the few black people there wouldn’t catch it.He was also like f*ck ‘em, they ain’t here tonight – and if YOU are here – you’re Dominican tonight damn it.
    Then he went on to promote the racial tensions (as if this needs instigating) in LA. He went on and ON about how Mexicans run L.A. and run the U.S. He also spoke about how young Mexican boys are dying on the front line in Iraq while the Whites are in the back partying (offensive to anyone of any race who has lost loved ones in Iraq).
