********.......explain why he's stereotypical.

:lol Thought so. Okay. Thanks anyway.

""""""""""""""Speedy Gonzales was born in the early 50s and was intended to be a real stereotype of what Anglophones in the United States considered to be a “typical” Mexican: he spoke with an exaggerated Mexican accent; he wore an oversized sombrero, Mexican type, and white shirt and trousers, with a red kerchief around his neck. a common traditional outfit worn by men and boys of rural Mexican villages

His speech was sprinkled with Spanish words like ¡ándele! ¡arriba! amigo, gracias, señor, ******, hasta la vista… and others to make him sound authentic and real.

Speedy was banned by Cartoon Network in 1999 for depicting unfair and untrue stereotypes about Mexicans—not necessarily Speedy, but his fellow mice who were portrayed as drunk and lazy, coterie of drunken Mexican mice who lounge around the village, or by his lazy cousin Slowpoke Rodriguez, who seems as slow-witted as he is slow-footed.


And though adult fans may bemoan the fact their favorite rodent has been sent to broadcast limbo, they ought to consider most of the viewers are children, Los Angeles psychologist Robert Butterworth said.

"These stereotypes are ingrained when we're young. And what do kids watch? Cartoons," he said. "I know the adults are saying, 'Oh God, it's just Speedy Gonzales,' but these are impressions that are put in very early and very hard to pull out. I'm the last person to hold a sign for political correctness, but kids absorb this thing on a preconscious level.""""""""""

You googled your response. Okay.....I'll drop it then.
 
crowsing, a term used to define the use of a search engine to search the internet. But alien conspiracist say that the term was replaced by googling, when the multiverse merged toward the singularity. Some say this is another example of the Mandela effect.
 
Excellent plagiarism, crows. Great spelling, grammar and sentence structure; the article looks completely intact. You lifted it perfectly, except for the fonts.

Grade: B-
 
incredible. I never once saw Speedy Gonzalez as representative of an entire nation. No more than Porky Pig is a typical American.

Oh wait....
