Nonsense!!! these ppl supporting trinidad against england bc they weren't respected as brits for a long time especially first generationers who was excluded in every which way.
why,look how long it took england to come tuh terms with their immigrant population and begin treating them like "english" citizen integrating them into british society, plus they've only been there in great numbers 50yrs. same thing with the rest of europe.
as for mexicans, these ppl has only been in the US less than 70yrs, and their population was minuscule up till the late 70ies, it's only LA and dallas that really had ah huge mexican population compared to the rest of the US, but trini indians has been in T&T since the 1840ies!! that's almost 200 fackin yrs and they can't assimilate yet??
allyuh keep making excuses for that bull crap, i just have one word to describe it, unpatriotic!! fack dat!
If only you knew how off-base yuh is.
Well enlighten einstein, don;'t leff me in the dark.
You say that Trinis in England supported the WI over England because they were treated as second class citizens etc. in England. No argument there.
However, for generations... many Indians in TnT felt they were treated as second-class citizens by first the colonial, then the Eric Williams government. You might argue whether that feeling was justified or not... but there's no arguing that it existed. Therefore, even though you call it "nonsense", you actually make his case for him without realizing it.
As fuh assimilating... black people been in the US almost 500 years now and to this day many African Americans will root for an African team over the US Men's National Team. Need I mention the second-class citizen thing too?
Next... you say that Mexicans only in the US less than 70 years and that up 'til the 70s the population was "miniscule"?? Where you get that from pardna?
You realize that Texas and California was taken from Mexico by force, right? Santa Ana and dem fellas was from where... Venezuela? You realize that many Mexicans stayed on this side of the border, working the same land they'd been working for centuries, right? Eva Longoria described this as being her family's situation, and they certainly weren't the only ones. Mexicans have always been in this country, their immigration didn't just start after WWII (70 years ago). Maybe you confusing them with Puerto Ricans, lol
Breds, i what i meant tuh say was that as of 70 yrs ago, the bulk of the mexican populus was concentrated in LA or dallas, that's all! it's only after a few decades or so that mexicans started over populating southern cal and started moving inland, but for the most part they were ah real minority.
i'm fully aware of the alamo. i'm also aware of the origins of texas and southern cal/ northern mexico being taken away from mexico in the first american intervention/ the mexican american war of 1846. give me some sort of credit bro, i ain't that dunce.
as for black ppl in the US not assimilating after 500yrs, it seem like you really want tuh win this argument, bc black americans and white americans are one and the same.
BTW i can't remember any african team being supported over any american team , ever! i musta miss something here. from what i know black americans can't even stand africans, so i would really like to know when and where black yankees supported africans in any sporting event against their own countrymen.
as for indians being under dogs in trini under eric williams rule, hog wash! the indian population started triving under the williams regime more than any other ethnic group, if any thing, they made themselves underdogs, bc of politics and klanishhness, but williams do them ppl plenty favors bro, especially with the big agricultural loans that they never had tuh pay back that afforded most indians ah tractor and ah big truck under their tall mansions in the country.
