The irony is because it’s a racial slur about Hispanic people in a business that exists because of cheap Hispanic labor in one of the most affluent white towns in the country.

My wife and I used to live just outside of Bronxville (Fleetwood) and there are two anecdotes that perfectly encapsulate the town:

Maury: You are...NOT the father! And because of that you hate America.

Couldn’t find the “fuller” version of this meme - but yeah Camacho saw a problem, acknowledged he wasn’t smart enough to solve it, found some who was, and implemented their plan to great success. I would kill for that nowadays.

This kraut is pretty sauer on your Karl hate.

The good thing is that the Flyers will continue to get better over the long haul as he can *never leave*, lest the “consequences” befall him....

You’re correct that DADT was the policy (at least when I was in the Scouts 15 years ago). I totally agree with you about the variances in chapters that I think gets lost a lot in these discussion of “monolithic” orgs.
