haku, I think they were refering to Mestizos. It's not a question of assuming everything south of Germany as non-white, it's just seeing Mexicans and Mestizos as being one and the same, which is stupid I admit because Mexicans and all Hispanics for that matter can include any race. But considering the fact that Mexico is mostly Mestizo and practically built its cultural identity during the revolution on being Mestizo it isn't really that far off a portrayal.

There are implications in only having white straight people saving the day; either helping defenseless minorities or just simply beating up minorties. It's a good idea but kind of ten years too late, but better late than never I guess.
