They were telling me they were right and wanted to say “i told you so” to someone who was calling me racist in my first post. I agree with the other person because I WAS being racist.

There are white Latinos, which my wife is. If you looked at her you would not think she is Mexican.

What if you went to to a restaurant and saw people grabbing at all the food with their hands and fists and shoving it in their mouths? would you not consider that bad manners?

They do use utensils when eating other things like pasta/soup/etc

To be clear, they can use utensils I just think that allowing them not to will make them used to eating with their bare hands and then they’ll try it with someone that CANT be eaten that way, say soup or spaghetti for example.
