Isn't there still Free Speech allowed there? I thought Colorado was one of the 50 states that permit people to voice their opinions? If you agree or disagree with him isn't relevant to the fact that in the US he is allowed to say whatever he wants. So why all the flipping out about it? If you don't agree with him, then don't vote for him again.

That man does not need to be re-elected to office. Everyone is always worried about racism. Mr. Bruce is a fine example of a racist person to me. The mexican people are not the only nationality who lie, cheat , and steal. I'm married to a mexican man and I'm damned proud of it. My husband is legally here in the United States. He works very hard at his job to provide for our family. I just wish that half of the American people were as accepting and would welcome me into their home , as were the people that treated me very well went I went to Mexico a couple of years ago. What about people who come from other countries, that get a free ride from the United States. I wounder if Mr. Bruce is a member of the KKK. I think that he forgot his white hood at home. I thought that the United States was moving forward in the discrimination department. With people like him in office it looks like we are going backwards in time. What do you want to bet that Mr. Bruce's family ancester

I do not think this man should loose his job because he used one of the "rights" that we have here in this country and that is of FREE SPEECH -- why should he loose his job? We haven't heard his speech - we have only heard excerps, how can we make a decision - if it was right or wrong? I wonder what is wrong with America educating other nations ?? What happened to that old proverb GIVE A MAN A FISH AND YOU FEED HIM FOR THE DAY, TEACH HIM HOW TO FISH AND HE IS FED FOR LIFE" -- I serious wonder if these people are really wanting to put their life in danger to cross into this country or is life so impoverished there that they can only "dare" to come in any way they can?
As a teenager, I went out to pick tomatoes for a few days to earn money to go to the fair - wonderful experience for me. It MUST be worth the sun and hard labor to live in this country, or else why go to the trouble?

A Cuatemochi.. Nice Aztec name, but the reality is the reality of what is real. One thing about Mexicans that none can deny.. They have the reverse philosphy of the educated and should I say "Christian" world, where they teach the golden rule. That is; do unto others as you would have others do unto you.... with Mexicans as a society, it is "Do unto others before they do unto you, because if they had a chance, they would do it to you first. ' Cheat, lie, steal from each other is as common as breathing. Just like how the majority of kidnappers in Mexico are the police.. Todos son mentirosos, rateros y asi es.. Es una lastima, pero los Mexicanos son asi.... si que son buenos trabajadores, pero si tienen la oportunidad de robarte, los van a hacerlo.....asi es.. En mi negocio, todos me han robado...Todos son ladrones.......desde los mas pobre hasta los mas ricos... Asi es y aprenden de usar la sistema de pronto de llegar aqui. Y mas porque hay muchos Mexicanos en oficina de welfa
