Thought 1: just saw four Hispanic males all wearing close to the same clothes at a local grocer. All shopping as one. Filling one cart while one male pushed two empty ones, buying mass amounts of chilis, onions, tomatoes, beans rice etc… with supply chain issues and inflation how long will we have food available. My first thought on these guys wasn’t “illegals” it was “locusts”
Second thought: everyday is a day to prepare. We are literally playing Russian Roulette when each day could be the day the run on food starts.
Oh yeah maybe. I understand Mexican culture so that would make sense. I grew up in a Arizona farming community south of Phoenix. My sister married the son of Mexican immigrants. I helped take care of her kids and spent many days and nights with their family. Her brother in law always joked about marrying me but I was young (like 15/16). They always had big parties. Our community celebrated Cinco De Mayo as well as Native American celebrations as well lived right near and Indian Reservation. It was fun, back when it was ok to celebrate with other heritages and not be called out for appropriation.
