Mexicans boo Miss USA, showing discord

MEXICO CITY -- Many here south of the border reveled in her disastrous evening: First Miss USA Rachel Smith slipped and fell on her bottom during the Miss Universe evening gown competition. Then she was booed by hundreds in the Mexican audience.

The treatment of the Tennessee beauty queen was nothing personal. It had more to do with Mexico's sometimes tense relationship with its powerful northern neighbor.

It was personal. And rude and arrogant. “F” them and their lousy country run by fat cats who live off the flesh of the poor and desperate.

I heard the audio from the event a few minutes ago.

The message was very loud and unmistakable.

This had nothing to do with politics or even the USA. The girl fell on her arse and she still made the Top 5 and Miss Mexico was eliminated. They were booing like you boo the refs at a football game. All of these women are beautiful; if you fall on your ass, you lose; otherwise people wonder if it is a big scam———which beauty pagaents are.

They booed because they knew she could go home.

Oh. I had no idea beauty pageants were like football games in regards to the audience.

And if an American crowd had booed a Mexican "Chicana" for being Mexican, the white-hating, bleeding-heart, America-loathing leftists here would have screamed RACIST!!! from every mainstream media outlet around.

But if a Mexican crowd booes an AMERICAN for being American........ {crickets} from the oh-so-tolerant liberals.





Oh and by the way.....

Envy, begrudgery and a giant sized inferiority complex are the elements that contribute to he classless behavior of Mexicans at public events involving Americans. How humiliating it must be for them that their failed culture cannot sustain itself, that it is forced to export its people as a source of foreign exchange. I'd feel inferior and envious also, were I unlucky enough to have beeen born in Mexico. The poor slobs.

I’m sure the feeling is mutual and it has nothing to do with Miss USA.

She is such a sweet girl, and she composed herself really well given the circumstances.

Trump sure did wimp out. Someone on an earlier thread said that Trump hired fired his balls

And look at those in Washington that want to legitimize these people...no thanks -— send them all back to Mexico. If we had a President like Ike, we have a long time ago.

oh right, Americans would never boo at an inappropriate time. I actually watched it (embarrassed to admit but I like the swimsuits he he); they were booing the actual process.....if it had been Miss Botswana that fell and still continued, they would have booed her. Why did USA deserve to continue? - this is not an IQ contest, you are suppossed to be able to walk down the runway - THAT’S IT.
