What "Top Gear" thinks of Mexicans...

LOL. Yahoo! comments is crazy. The one time I thought they would put the trolling aside and denounce this behavior, but they just ran with it. Ugly comments are expected but when they receive 200+ thumbs up? That is terrible.

You're trying to rationalize an inaccurate stereotype?

- im trying to understand where they got that inaccurate stereotype to begin with. like, what country is this in? for all 3 of the hosts to harp on the same inaccurate stereotype and the crowd laughing? is that here? if so, i must have missed the memo on mexicans being known as lazy.........

It's an English program.

 Have you ever seen a Speedy Gonzalez cartoon? Lazy/drunk Mexican stereotypes abound. That was produced in the late 50s.

Unacceptable and unnecessary from these three who's wit and sense of humor I usually enjoy as a fan of their show.

The larger issue is that this type of humor is far too common in England and the greater part of Western Europe. The scary part is that it's morphed into a misunderstood sense of nationalism for many. For those who think racism is predominant in the US, they should spend sometime in those countries where it's borderline accepted.
