Gem Mint Ten has gone too far, Video

Posted on | August 8, 2008 | 1 Comment

The Fine fellas at “Hugging Harold Reynolds” also run a blog called “Gem Mint Ten”. This time they have gone too far. They have stereotyped Mexican American. In this recent post, the topic was the baseball player Angel Salazar.

Here is the quote from the page. You can check out the link to see the baseball card they referenced.

“Donruss Fact: Split the ’84 season between Expos and their Indianapolis farm.
GMT Fact: Not surprisingly, proved to be one of the farm’s top tomato pickers, but was sent back to Montreal when failing to show proper immigration papers to Indiana Department of Labor field inspectors.

His “papers” were said to have listed him as “Fred Weinstein from Bloomington.”

Gem Mint Ten, Mexican Americans are much more than picking tomatoes.  I am tired of the stereotypes. I could write down all of the OTHER things Mexican Americans do, but I will leave it to this video. I would like to personally thank Cheech and Chong for opening my mind to other ways of thinking, and I hope the folks and Gem Mint Ten watch the vid.


This was a joke. I am sure Gem Mint Ten was joking as well.
