What's Worse Than Racism?


I hate to repeat myself, but after I saw Mr. Ron Gochez, a high school history teacher at Santee High School in Los Angeles, give a testimony at some council meeting spewing on how he considers California part of what he refers to as “occupied Mexico.”

First of all Mr. Gochez, you are history teacher. The reason California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas are part of the United States is that the Mexican government and their armies at those times did not fight hard enough. They lost the war. If you want them back as part of Mexico again, your “revolutions” are not going to work, especially now with the rise of the conservative movement. The only way it will happen is for you to convince the current government of Mexico to declare war on the United States, invade us and try and take these states back. But I guarantee you, if Mexico won, then all you would have is the citizens of the new larger Mexico continue to leave that now larger country for the remaining 46 United States of America.

Because you Mr. Gochez, and your ilk are something that people really don’t think exists, but in reality you all do. You are what is worse, and even lower, than a racist.

What is worst than being a racist? Well, Let’s use Mexico as an example. What’s worse than a racist? How about --- MEXICANS --- in MEXICO --- who exploit, terrorize, murder, rape and suppress their own people? So much so, that it causes their own people to not leave their country --- but to run away from it. It is safer for a Mexican citizen to live in the United States illegally, that legally in their own.

Mr. Gochez, if you really want to help the Mexican people, then stop your cowering here, cross the border into Mexico and take your revolution there. Go back and fight those who are really hurting your people, your fight is with your own people. Go take your fight, if you have it in you, to the corrupt Mexican government and to the drug cartels that run Mexico.

Mexico --- with all of it’s vast resources that could let your people live in their homeland with a decent life, and YOU continue to allow it so that being involved in the drug trade or in human trafficking is the only way to make a living. I dare you Mr. Gochez, go take your fight to Mexico --- I suggest you start with Juarez.

Because people like you Mr. Gochez, have made Mexico like Africa --- most every country in that continent exploits, murders and enslaves their own people too. You know history Mr. Gochez, have you ever heard of Rwanda? How about looking into Nigeria. It is safer for me, as a white man, to walk through Africa than it is for a black man or woman.

Mr. Gochez, it’s so easy for you to make your speeches here, YOU know how safe you are. Go take your fight to Mexico --- where it belongs.
