¡ASK A MEXICAN!
BY GUSTAVO ARELLANO
SPECIAL PHILADELPHIA EDITION
Dear Mexican: I recently went to
a Los Angeles Dodgers game at
Dodgers Stadium. It was good to
see the familias having fun with
their children, pero I then saw and
heard something disturbing. There
will always be rivalries in any
sport, of course, pero the white
people cheering for the St. Louis
Cardinals would clap and cheer
when their team did something
good. When the Dodgers did good,
the Mexican fans— mostly home-
boys and paisas — were yelling pro-
fanities and flipping off other people. It
was very sad that they would display such
language in front of innocent, young, impression-
able children, and it upset me that they made Mexicans look like ruth-
less, ignorant animals. I was compelled to go up to those Cardinals
fans, and I made sure the Dodgers fans were looking. I said to the
güeros, “I apologize for these ignorant young men who don’t know
how to behave like a civilized adult at a sporting event.” It’s bad
enough our culture gets a bad rap, but they shouldn’t add leña to the
fuego. Was I wrong to stand up and excuse them? — Garciaparra Girl
Dear Wabette: No. It’s always noble and a bit antiquated to ask for decency
in this modern mundo, but you’re waging a Sisyphean battle if you think you
can reform foul-mouthed Dodgers devotees — and not because they’re a
bunch of Mexicans. Remember that “fan” in the context of sports is short for
“fanatic,” and then tune into ESPN Classic and wait for footage of Disco
Demolition Night to air. Dig all those long-haired gabachos! If that 1979
Chicago White Sox fiasco still doesn’t convince you about the innate savagery
of sports fans, then buy the 2003 tome The Great Philadelphia Fan Book and
marvel at how Mexican Philadelphians can act when placed before loser
squads. And don’t forget the followers of the Oakland Raiders, New York
Giants/Mets/Jets/Yankees/Knicks … really, any major-league rooter except
those pussies who cheer for the baseball Cardinals.

I read your column every week and notice your ongoing theme of
pushing for “immigration reform.” I realize your concern for your fel-
low compadres, but what of those of us who see that our country is
becoming simply too overcrowded, and too Hispanicized? In Plano,
Texas, my grocery began putting up directional signs only in Spanish.
At the school that I taught at in Dallas, all the blacks left and their
places filled by the illegals’ children. And because I don’t speak
Spanish, I was forced into an early retirement. First, we need a zero
population growth mentality. I used to be a Catholic, but in this day
and age, pushing for no birth control is insane. So, do you believe we
should just open up the country to anyone and everyone? Where do
we draw the line? — Randy for Romo
Dear Gabacha: Damn, chula: get yourself together! Your question scatters
across rhyme and reason like Mexicans spilling out of a hole in the border
fence. I’ll address pero one part of your pregunta: the idea that Mexicans are
irredeemably Hispanicizing the United States. For your answer, I turn ¡Ask a
Mexican! over to the chingón satirist of his time, Benjamin Franklin:

your Spirit Guides

We hear about coming into the moment, but is there a process
to help us? Have you ever met your Spirit Guides or Angels?

…Why should the Palatine Boors [Germans] be suffered to swarm into our
Settlements, and by herding together establish their Language and Manners to
the Exclusion of ours? Why should Pennsylvania, founded by the English,
become a Colony of Aliens, who will shortly be so numerous as to Germanize
us instead of our Anglifying them, and will never adopt our Language or
Customs, any more than they can acquire our Complexion.
Last I checked, the most German thing remaining in Pennsylvania were the
Amish, and they’re more American than the Phillie Phanatic. Though
Mexicans are influencing the culture of America, the Republic always absorbs
its idiot immigrants and becomes richer for it — and if you don’t believe me,
then ask yourself why Franklin was proven such a schmendrick, or why a
Mexican uses Yiddish as part of his fakakta shtick.
