    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.

    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.

    Awww... Man... I always liked Poncho.

    I convinced Clint Eastwood to wear a serape in those western movies he
    was in. Actually, he saw mine and was jealous.

    Now I'm picturing Poncho confronting 4 guys about teasing his mule.

    Thank you. That was a nice picture.

    These statements may be false.

    But they may be true as well. :)

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

    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!
