Since he's anonymous (I guess -- unless that's his real name) it doesn't
matter very much. I've had some tedious off-line correspondence with one of
his defenders who insists that Mexicans wouldn't be offended by the item --
or that they shouldn't be if they would be.
When I asked my kids what would happen to him if this item were made known
here, they replied, "He would be linched."
It's one thing to throw excrement as a signed art form; quite another to do
it anonymously. Which are you, Mittelwerk? Care to put your real name and
address on your messages?
