I was at the game as an unbiased spectator waiting for another game. I saw the flag, which was followed by applause from the Westlake students (or younger fans). It seemed that within a few minutes, those same fans began chanting, “We speak English,” over and over. I would guess maybe 100 or so fans. A few El Paso kids chanted back, “Daddy’s money.” Then the Westlake kids pulled out their driver’s licenses and a few chanted, “At least we’re legal.” Pretty ignorant and disgusting. Notice how none of them are speaking up now.

A daily newspaper that caters to those readers who need their morning paper light and down to a five-minute read that is overwhelmingly positive and hopeful about El Paso is not fulfilling its responsibility as a newspaper.
Fence or no fence, over 25,000 El Pasoans everyday drive into Juarez to work in maquilas and several hundred thousand people from Juarez come into El Paso everyday to work, attend our schools and keep our economy afloat. Surely those people deserve the news of the day that matters. Too bad they don’t get it from the El Paso Times.

from the newspapertree: Race, Revolt, Repeat, pt 1 »
racing does happen here. the problem is it gets scant help from the supposed powers in this town. should the narco wars end, binational racing would help both sides of the boundary. heck, the columbus hiway is already a great road to race, it’s not all about i-10 and crotch rocketeers.
