Honey, I’ve paraded my Mexicanism so much ‘round here, that I’m shocked you didn’t know. Lol
I’m the AF Mexican. 
My first guess was "as fuck" rather than "Atheist Forums". 
Either works, no?
Wow. Sorry I just swore.

I am never ashamed of my blackness. I tell everyone that i'm as black as the night sky.

I wouldn't count such a person as a friend.
I agree with you completely. You shouldn't be ashamed and you sure as hell shouldn't be meek. Idiots like Trumptards and their ignorance must be opposed. You don't do that by lowering your gaze or being quiet. Take it down their throats.
I've taken that approach to my atheism my whole life. I won't hide it, whisper it or apologize for it. Most everybody who knows me knows I'm an atheist.

Wow, what a weirdo. Personally, that would make me wanna say it even more if it were me. If anyone has a problem with it, that's their problem.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

If it were me I'd just start yanking her chain, hard.
"You know I'm a dude right?".
"I can't wait till I drop off the sex criminal list.".
"Would you like to see my collection of Hitler skin tattoos?".
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

You are an awesome person, and being Mexican is a part of your identity, and I think that's awesome too. I've met other awesome Mexicans online, but you are the most awesome.

It always gets their attention when you mention your parole officer.

Society has conditioned us to be so race-conscious, she may have been scrambling for an 'appropriate reaction' and her brain temporarily broke.

Mexican women are beautiful. I definitely agree that you're quite pretty, but the implication that Mexican women aren't good looking shows a lack of taste.

I can't read the whole thread right this moment but I'm going to when I get to a computer. That being said I'm in shock at her reaction! I don't know if it's cause I'm from Texas and Mexicans are the majority here but still I don't understand why someone would act like that! Also side note I'm so jealous of Spanish people. I find them so beautiful. I wish so much that I was something other than European white lol. My husband is Peruvian (well his grandfather was born and raised there) but after his grandfather, his father, and him married white ass women (apparently the Rodriguez men like white women lol) my daughter's blood is so diluted she doesn't have his dark skin or black hair and that makes me sad. I wish she looked more like him, she doesn't fit her Hispanic last name at all lol
