I think it's OK to make jokes using and mocking stereotypes, all this PC crap is way out of line. But in Spain and many other latin countries, I find the everyday culture of racism and homophobia pretty shocking.
I dont know many Spaniards but I do know some people from other Latin countries (not Mexico) that are the same way. Very proud people.
