    oh come on now. that's just people trying to get mad at something.

    Especially since that is what his side-kicks name was.

    This is the first time I hear Poncho is a problematic term, and I am a native Spanish speaker.

    I ought to go order some more.

    I have two. Now that I know they are problematic, I don't want the
    cultural police coming for me, so maybe you can have them. LOL!

    you poncho back!

    the only word that sticks in my head as racist/wrong is squaw for
    american indians which i believe is a slang word for vagina.

    poncho is a stupid word to equate with racism, anyways. i always liked beaner. it's funny. my mexican friend always used it. also he'd use cholo as a word for pretend mexicans who have some hispanic blood but can't speak spanish. ---

    It was all a joke, folks. See the original message.
