You don't think his job has anything to do with it at all, right? And are you saying that a Mexican can't project hate towards their own? I see it happening plenty here in Dallas. A Mexican will speak Spanish to someone else who is obviously Mexican - and the reply is a hate filled comment on "learning English". My wife runs into it all the time, and I witness it happening. Like at our bank once, when a lady of Mexican descent started giving my wife a hard time...until I walked up and asked what the problem was, then she wanted to be all nice and polite. It was because it is obvious my wife is from Mexico by the way she speaks.
Funny thing is, in Oklahoma most people just presumed she was Native American, since Oklahoma is full of reservations. Only when she spoke could you see a visible change in people's faces and attitudes. Remember, Oklahoma is overwhelmingly Republican and Right. Here - put a face on the "justice" most Right Wingers want for illegal immigrants. This is a "Right Wing" anti-immigration group that a lot of Republicans uphold as "doing the job the government should be doing". Tell me if this is how you feel little girls should be treated!
'Please don't shoot me:' Girl, nine, begged for her life before she and her father were shot dead by 'anti-immigrant vigilantes'
 Victim: Brisenia Flores was shot dead alongside her father in her home in Flores, Arizona
A nine-year-old girl begged for her life before being shot dead along with her father by an anti-immigrant vigilante group, a court heard.
Brisenia Flores was gunned down at point-blank range in her own home in Flores, Arizona, as her terrified mother Gina Gonzalez, who had also been hit, played dead on the floor.
She sobbed as the court was told how she had heard Brisenia's desperate pleas as her killer stood over her.
'I can hear it happening,' Mrs Flores told the court describing how her daughter said: 'Why did you shoot my dad? Why did you shoot my mom?'
'I can hear her telling him to "please don't shoot me."'
The prosecution alleges that the child and her father Raul Flores Jr were murdered in May 30, 2009 by a group of vigilantes set up to tackle Mexican immigrants.
The shootings took place 200 miles from Tucson, the scene of the gun massacre earlier this month in which another nine-year-old girl died.
Shawna Forde, the head of the Minutemen American Defence group, is on trial accused of two charges of first degree murder.
She is allegedly orchestrated the attack on the Flores family with two male accomplices, due to face face court in.March.
Police claim that Forde believed Mr Flores was a drug trafficker and would have cash and goods in the house which they could use to fund their patrols.
She reportedly led the raid and gave instructions to the male accomplices. |
