Hispanic actually constitutes a variety of races, ranging from whites (as all of Central and South American was colonised at some point by Europeans), blacks (with the abolition of slavery, many of these colonial powers sent their newly freed slaved to South America or the Caribbean), and, the one which will be mostly cited, the mestizos.

hi Manicmechnic

i am sorryfor being an ignorant but what can i find there.... thanks i appreciate it thanks......

Hispanic is not a race. They are an ethnicity and for the most part are of the white/caucasion race.

If a german says his race is better than the hispanics what he probably means is his ethnic group is superior. That is not racism it is ethnic superiority.

Racism, by its simplest definition, is the belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race. People with racist beliefs might hate certain groups of people according to their racial groups. In the case of institutional racism, certain racial groups may be denied rights or benefits, or get preferential treatment. Racial discrimination typically points out taxonomic differences between different groups of people, even though anybody can be racialised, independently of their somatic differences. According to the United Nations conventions, there is no distinction between the term racial discrimination and ethnic discrimination.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism

:roll:

I'm of the opinion there is a difference. Racial discrimination and ethnic discrimination are not the same. Race and ethnicity are not the same.

Given your past track record, I'm going on record as stating your opinion is wrong.

Using wiki...

"Race and Ethnicity
A race is a human population that is believed to be distinct in some way from other humans based on real or imagined physical differences. Racial classifications are rooted in the idea of biological classification of humans according to morphological features such as skin color or facial characteristics. An individual is usually externally classified (meaning someone else makes the classification) into a racial group rather than the individual choosing where they belong as part of their identity. Conceptions of race, as well as specific racial groupings, are often controversial due to their impact on social identity and how those identities influence someone's position in social hierarchies (see identity politics).

Ethnicity, while related to race, refers not to physical characteristics but social traits that are shared by a human population. Some of the social traits often used for ethnic classification include:

nationality
tribe
religious faith
shared language
shared culture
shared traditions
Unlike race, ethnicity is not usually externally assigned by other individuals. The term ethnicity focuses more upon a group's connection to a perceived shared past and culture."

Just curious


where exactly does Wikipedia come in on the hierarchy (pecking order) of law... ?

Is it after the US Constitution ,...after Case Law?... right before Hoyel?

:wink:

Wikipedia is used by those who are too lazy to look up real sources. It's no wonder charged uses them, since he likes others to do his work for him. :lol:

You used it first!

Rev.............You scared the shit out of me with that picture. :twisted: :wink:

Hmm.. Enfield, CT... great pizza place, right across from the Dodge dealership.

Do you mean pizza palace on rte 5 or frankie's firehouse pizza that used to be on palomba that is now in somers? Both of the are great.

To the OP:

The point is you're starting at the end. The question you're asking here has to do with becoming legal to work in the US, not truck driving.

The first thing you need to do, regardless of how much time you spent in the US previously is get legal to work here!

Your best bet would be to contact an immigration lawyer in the San Diego area (since you're closest to there) and ask them what to do to get back in on a work visa, permit or whatever. Once you have that out of the way then apply for work as a driver. A lawyer will give you the real scoop, an internet message board will not! This is an immigration issue, not a driving issue.

You seem conscientious and determined to make it work. Your posts suggest a desire to do the right thing and be safe at it. Best of luck to you.

okay, my two cents worth.....

i am by far a racist. I have several mexican, black, etc. friends. I do not have a problem with ANYBODY coming into this country and getting a job. My problem is anybody who comes into this country who is ILLEGAL. Somehow they find employment (most of the time they steal identities to do it, s.s. #s and the like) or check into hospitals, rack up tens of thousands of medical bills, then skip the country, and leave the mess for american taxpayers to foot the bill.

I am all for anybody who wants to come here and take a job away from an american, because it is the american who dont want to do that job....so if they dont want the job, give it to someone who can. but let that other person be LEGAL.

Also, you want to drive a truck? great...be LEGAL, pass the state tests, whatever, and get your Class A CDL like every other truck driver on the road.

Please tell me this is a typo....

it is. But you sure must have a lot of time on your hand to go around and just give people crap with ignorant opinions, like Rev. Al Sharpton.

Excuse me?

I really couldn't tell you. All I remember is that there was a Dodge dealership, and a grocery store next to it which was vacant at the time, where I unloaded at (I was delivering vans). I could see the pizzeria across the street.. all I remember about it was that as we went in, there was a wooden counter right there, and the seating was off to the right. I remember the lighting being a bit dim, and I remember that the manager himself had come to our table to talk to us for a bit, ask where we were from (another driver had arrived at the dealership later, and I helped him unload his vans), and he asked what we ordered, and I remember him saying, "Good... you're getting some real pizza tonight" (and he wasn't lying, either). After we were done, I told him I could never move to that area, because I'd end up gaining too much weight if I lived within reasonable driving distance of that particular pizza place.


Regarding the last few responses in this thread, if you look back and read over the OP's previous posts, he has stated in no uncertain terms that his intent is to do everything legally, on the straight and narrow, which is why he posted this thread in the first place.

I'll side with Rev on this one!
I read the same thing, all he did was ask a question, no crap or opinion given!
Are you having a bad day Kev?????

Double post!

I think he didn't like that in his "my trainer sucks" thread, I told him to just go talk to his company. Funny thing is, that's exactly what he did, and the problem got resolved.

Rev. What is going on with that avatar?? :shock: :shock:

Zombies rock.
