We didn't colonise anyone, we were colonised. We weren't Nazis, either. Even if you argue that mass migration to the UK and France is fair punishment for colonialism, and mass migration to Germany and Austria is fair punishment for Nazism, Ireland did nothing to deserve it.

The only people who have a legitimate right to live in Ireland are the indigenous Gaels. Even the prods in Ulster have to go, but the migrants are worst of all because they have nothing in common with us and their numbers are growing at an extremely alarming rate.

We'll deport them. We'll deport them all. They'll be removed, every single one of them, and not just the men, but the women, and the children, too. They're like snakes, and we'll drive them out like snakes. I HATE THEM!

So I've lived in a number of countries.

There's countries like America, Canada, UK, Sweden where you don't have to contribute a dime to the ecomony and you can still get welfare / benefits. If not multiple generations of the SAME families would not be ON benefits instead of working.

And then there's

Countries like Spain where if you don't contribute a dime to the economy - except for legitimate reasons, such as severe disability - by working for a few years you won't get a single dollar of benefits / welfare support from the government.

I personally see Spain's welfare / benefits system as highly beneficial as
a) it'll force people who are capable of working but make excuses left right and center (or addicts to take detox & jobs more seriously) to smarten up & contribute to society,
b) it enforces purpose, drive, ambition - strive for betterment - whereas in other countries why bother to even graduate high school if the government will pay you to sit at home,
c) the money spent supporting people who can work but don't, etc., can be redirected to more helpful to the community as a whole aspects such as better healthcare, education, etc.

I'm not saying we should stereotype all Latinos into one category. I'm simply saying that there are stereotypes that exist, and Latinos have some of the best ones. If you're Latino, please feel free to chime in.

For example, they love their families.

Do all of them? Of course not but is this not a great stereotype to have?

Another example is that they love sex and are good at sex. I can see how this one might set the bar too high or it sexualizes especially the women, but I still feel like this is much much better than saying they're bad lovers. For example, Asian men are mistakenly stereoptyped for having small penises. I'm not saying they're massive like the biggest ones in porn, but they aren't bad. Do you think women created this myth? Doubtful.

Another Latino stereotype is that they love dancing. I'm in NYC and I've met Latinos who don't, but the vast majority does. In fact, I once asked a lady if she liked dancing, and she said, "Of course, I'm a Latina"
