Activists for illegals offended by restaurant sign

[BlackSand]

As always, its in the eye of the beholder.

The same RWs who make fun of other people's feelings will screech the loudest when they're on the receiving end.

Maybe we would all be better off if we walked a mile in each other's shoes.

No argument here ... But I don't have to steal a Mexican's shoes to walk the beach in Costa Maya.

As far as I know the name of the restaurant Illegal Pete's has something to do with his father and nothing to do with illegal aliens.

But what the hell. Some one some where as I post this post will be offended by something.

It's from his favorite book as a child and his father's name. The name has a very personal meaning to him and a bunch of illegal mofos can't make him change it.

Illegal Immigrants Could Be Offended By Restaurant Name, Activists Say: Owner Isn’t Changing It

Illegal immigrants could be offended by the name of a Mexican restaurant in Denver, Colorado, activists claim, and that alone should give the owner motivation to change it.
However, owner Pete Turner says it isn’t going to happen. Turner said he appreciated the concern shown over the name, but ultimately, it means too much to him.
“When it came to the name Illegal Pete’s, I settled on the name of a bar in a novel,” he said in comments to Fox News. “The name resonated with me for the obvious reason that my name is Pete, but of equal importance, it was my father’s name.”
The name has nothing to do with making fun of illegal immigrants and more to do with his father, who had a reputation as a “good-natured hell raiser.”
In October, local activists from Fort Collins, Colorado, comprised of CSU and Front Range students, professors, and instructors, met with Turner and shared their concerns, claiming “illegal” is “inappropriate for use when describing a person.”
Columnist Sally Kohn said as much in a story earlier this year, as reported by the Inquisitr, in which she said referring to a people as illegal immigrants was like calling African-Americans the n-word.
The group behind the meeting — We Are Not Illegal — admitted that it was “disappointed” by Turner’s refusal to change the name.
“Rather than responding to the group’s concerns, Turner chose to spend six pages enumerating the things he has done for the community and his track record as an employer, things that the group never called into question,” they wrote in a statement.
How does Turner’s Hispanic general manager at Illegal Pete’s, Milton Guevara, feel about the name?
“I’m Hispanic, and I’m very proud to be,” Guevara, told KDVR. “People come to us because they love our food… The name doesn’t mean anything.”
The company blog has been very self aware of the ongoing issue and released this statement on November 7.
“We are so thankful for all the support we’ve gotten from people across the country. But we also respect the voices of those who have differing opinions than we do. We respect all types of people and all feelings as valid; and we hope all parties will avoid adding hostility to the discussion. We can disagree, but let’s not be turds about it. Okay? This kind of conversation’s what makes a nation great. That, and burritos.”
Do you think the term “illegal immigrants” is offensive?

Illegal immigrants could be offended by the name of a Mexican restaurant in Denver, Colorado

As long as the illegal aliens aren't offended, I'm okay with it.

I could give a fuck if their offended. If they are, they're welcome to go back where they came from, which is where they should be dragged back to anyway !

Fukum all.

It seems obvious from his explanation that he didn't name the bar to offend, so I see no problem.

And if illegal aliens are offended, too bad.

Do you know what Mexico does with illegal immigrants? They kick them out of Mexico as fast as they can.

But, basically, that's what we did. The US has done incredible harm to the Mexican economy.

Oh crap I was reading a report of the meeting they had. Aye carumba!

They're claiming the name of the restaurant will cause violence. Sheesh. Activists are getting as bad as jihadists.

"I told you no sugar in my coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JIHAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".

So what now for fucking activists?

"Pat Boone you had a song called Speedy Gonzales!!!!!!!! ondelay ondelay !!!!!!!!!!!!JIHAD!!!"

Are you kidding me? They sent great sums of cash back to Mexico. You've been supporting their economy.

The guy running the beer stand in Majahaul would fucking disagree with your ideas on what I do for the Mexican economy ... We drank those poor fellas clean out of beer the last time we were there.

They're in this country illegally, bringing down blue collar wages.
Not only should we not care what they think, or if they're offended, we should be the ones who are offended that they are here in the first place.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

True, but even if it was named for the sole intent to offend illegals, too fucking bad. They are here illegally and their feelings do not matter.

 

[tinydancer]

Just an FYI luddly. This has been studied. So cut the crap that we wrecked their economy.

"In the United States last year, more than $120 billion was sent by workers to families abroad - making it the largest sender of remittances in the world

More than $23 billion went to Mexico, $13.45 billion to China, $10.84 billion to India and $10 billion to the Philippines, among other recipients.

In 2011, the World Bank estimated that U.S. remittances alone reached $110.8 billion, which was more than 80 per cent of the size of the total amount of cash flow ($132 billion).

It is little surprise as the US is home to the largest number of migrants from developing countries; there are 42.8 million immigrants in the country, making up around 14 per cent of the population."

he should post this in his window

with a sombrero on his head

Excellent picture. It makes me think of those posters who cry over being called "gay" or being picked on by "mean girls".

Everybody gets offended nowadays if you say boo!

Makes you puke!

Your reference to puking so soon after dinner offends me.

; - )

I am offended that you are offended.

I should sue you or something leftist like throw a hissy fit

Liberals live to be offended as they think emotionally. They're pussies and scum.

Fuck them, let's see someone open up a Mexican restaurant, and call it "Wetback Manor!".... If you got good food, people will come no matter what the name!
