I saw a cartoon in the paper about swine flu and it said: 'Give me all your money or i'll sneeze on you.
I guess you had to see it.

Obviously mostly Mexicans get it, since socialized medicine is hell for them and also it started there  |

This might be a bad idea, but i think that international traveling should be restricted for any one in a region with a confirmed case of H1N1 until they get some kind of doctor's permission saying they don't have H1N1 influenza. That way countries can't get it as easily if they dont already.

I'm mexican! I'm not worrying about that flu getting me at anytime at all. What am I doing?: Letting the country take care of it while I sit back and play games. It's the American dream! :,)

It's overblown, but it IS spreading. You can't joke it off.

The swine flu should not be blamed on hispanics. It is the bacterias (plural) that joined together to create this epidemic virus. It is to be said that a single-cell organism can decompose an elephant in a few weeks. This virus spreads in the stomach area and through the nerve system.

The bacteria multiply quickly, so it CAN be said a single bacteria can decompose an elephant, if you consider the multiplication.
Also, the second half of your post has nothing to do with the first half. The fact that there are multiple bacteria has no correlation with whether or not it originated in mexico...

It's not being blamed on the hispanics, but on the Mexicans. Why? Because
1. Started in Mexico
2. Only has greatly affected Mexicans
3. Spread from those who have been in Mexico recently
What reason is there not to call this Mexican Influenza?

Because it's RACIST. If a virus that endangered thousands of people was named dbsndust influenza, wouldn't the name imply that it was your fault? Everyone would say "that no good dbsndust, spreading that horrible flu." You wouldn't like it would you.

If it was named Dbsndust influenza because I was the first case, similar as how it should be Mexican influenza because the first 1000 cases were there, then I would be fine with it. It's simply a fact. And if you're going to go out on a limb and refer to Mexican as a race... that is being racist in itself.

News says about 400 people in the world have been infected, and 1%-4% of them will die.

Mexician:
1.native of mexico
2. Hispanic with Mexicain ancestry

Mexican: Native of Mexico. Period. If you will generalize all of Mexico as Hispanic, you might as well generalize all of America as white and/or protestant. Immediately after that you can don your white hood and go to the nearest cross burning, since that's exactly what the KKK does.
