Cuco: Great news! They're going to do a Latino version of "19 and Counting." Eddie: That's great! Cuco: But they're going to call it "Too Many Mexicans."
Will some one please explain what Latino means as used by Lalo. If he refers to the people of Mexico, Central America and South America, who speak Spanish, does he excluded the millions of indigenous Mexican, Central American and South Americans who still speak their native language or those in the German and French enclave of counties like Argentina whose principle language is German or French?
Dose he exclude Brazilians, the most populists country South America, whose language is Portuguese?
Does he include the people of Spain whose language include Basque, Catalan, etc that predates Castillian (Spanish) by centuries?
Does Latino include most Mexican Americans whose language is commonly called Spanglish?
How about English that was based 60% on Latin before the current the technical revolution whose terms are now common to most languages.
One of is confused and the confusion is restricted to the term Latino and has nothing to do with race or politics.
