Oh? And what's so ignorant about what I wrote? Are you saying there *aren't* Cuban immigrants who don't fit that description? I went to the local DMV last year and more than half the people there couldn't even speak English, and my local supermarket makes speaker announcements in Spanish, that's it. And then there's what happened in my neighborhood the day little Elian Gonzalez got sent back. Scores of people running around, screaming "Elian!" from passing cars, blocking traffic and waving the Cuban flag, starting a near-riot. I didn't see a single Stars & Stripes either. Shortly after, I had to put up with belligerent Cuban youths accusing me of sending Elian back to Cuba because I'm a gringo. So excuse the hell out of me if I'm not as sympathetic to the Elian Gonzalez controversy like the neo-con/Cuban-exile thought police say I should be.
