I'm going to go against the grain and point out that these types of people generally live in areas where there are very few foreigners. The closest country with Spanish as their native language is Mexico. Given the lack of diverse exposure to people of different backgrounds, you can see whymany might default to Spanish speakers = Mexicans. That said, they are also likely to be undereducated as well...

It sounds like they think the movie is good, it just took too much money to make given it's lack of appeal to a wide audience. I think that makes sense.
Sorry, my original comment is a bit accusatory. I did not mean to say you (specifically) are the problem. I intended to say that more level-headed Christians are not what you see portrayed in media because it's the absolute psychos that are in positions of power, so that's what you (general) see in the media.
Persecution complex
I would never claim to be persecuted, but you specifically seem to paint with a broad brush.
Where are the outraged Christians trying to take their religion back?
There is nothing to "take back." True followers of Christ see through these extremists in government as easily as they see through a some snake-worshipping Christian cult. Christians have always known there will be many that will pervert the truth, so they are not surprised. The problem is ~~people like you just assume they are sitting around endorsing this behavior~~ the media makes it seem all Chritians endorse this behavior, but the challenge is the same as always: true Christians do not have the wealth and power to control political/religious messaging around the world. It kind of goes against some key points in their theology.
You might need to add sudo, OP
I'm not a natalist, but let's be real: the number if deaths caused by gun violence miniscule relative to the entire population. That said, 6 out of every 100000 kids die of firearm injuries and is the leading cause of death in children. Gun control is something that need to be improved in the country for sure. I'm just not sure it is a significant threat to "Clara." A much bigger threat, imo, is the state of education and reliability of information today.
You got a source for that last sentence? I'm inclined to degree, but I'd love to see a a concrete explanation proving it.
In Columbus, you would be considered just a normal guy. You could easily find a community there.
Addiction was simply an example of why a homeless person might not be able to handle money reponsibly. It was not an assumption about what made them homeless, nor was it a judgement on their character. I don't disagree with anything your saying, so I don't see the problem. And I don't refuse giving any aid. I just think giving to an organization is more likely to help a person than giving to them directly. Maybe if I was handing out in volumes of $1k it'd be enough to change soneone's like, but obvioualy most can't afford to do that.

In the US, yeah, you are more likely to speak to a Mexican than any other hispanic Spanish speaker.
