Police are recording license plate number, tracking them, and keeping the information in databases for years. Woman went to doctor with back pain; doctor diagnosed her with Ghetto Booty. Cespedes won the Home Run Derby but was not in the All Star Game. He conducted an interview in Spanish and then translated. Controversy ensued. There was also Twitter hate for Marc Anthony singing the national anthem (or God Bless America). 16 year old won British lottery. She spent the money wildly after writing a letter saying she’d be modest. Her winnings lead to more problems. Esquire list of good cities to live well in. Los Angeles number 1. Woman finally let her husband get a motorcycle, and he died on his first ride in a motorcycle accident. PBS poking fun at reality shows.

What?? Cenks wife was a skydiver? How many jumps did she have? and where did she jump?
If I had a twitter account I would try to ask this in a twitter storm.
If there are so many Latinos in baseball, then start serving tacos in the stadiums! Where I come from they only serve kielbasa with onions, bell peppers, and mustard. Sure, it’s great, but sometimes I want a taco god dammit!
You were MUCH too nice to that doctor in Tenn. He’s a pig and he deserves every bit of trouble she can cause him. I’ve worked in hospitals and you should see the things they write in charts. Also, with regard to the lottery, I hope to win some day and I have plans for the money, that include giving a lot of money to TYT. I’m serious.
Baseball probably has 27% players from Latino countries, home grown Latino players make up another ~30%. African-Americans, East Asian and Whites make up the rest of the league.
There are some interesting scientific theories about how hearing different languages effect us psychologically. Some say, since we are social animals, hearing someone talk while not knowing what they’re saying is like torture to us, to the point where our brains actually focus on it more desperate to make it out and, making it seem louder than it is. This is of course, to varying degrees. The same thing would apply some people fear masks. We are desperate to read others’ expressions and features, and when something prevents us from this, our brain tells us something is wrong.
Of course, that’s only one variable. There’s obviously other reasons that add up to make people enraged specifically towards Spanish.
