Oh, and you say you are in South Texas. Just sit at a major intersection around there. Tally up the ethnicity of the drivers going through that intersection.
Is it all white guys?
-
You will see a HUGH mix of people out there, including not only whites/hispanic/blacks/asians/ but middle easterners/romanians/russians/ well, you name it. Short people/old/fat/skinny/bald/dumb/smart/friendly/gay/straight/religious/democrats/republicans.

I was reading a couple of lawsuits regarding Walmart not hiring black trucker applicants some years back in Arkansas and another company wld hire a black but not for OTR as he requested. He was told that he could work the dock. But know that I think about it I have not heard much about other than the norm high unemployment rates recently.

What changes? People are saying those should be white drivers, or those should be AMERICAN trucks? --big difference

i dont have a problem with mexican trucks. i have a problem with our gov. bending under pressure from mexico to the nafta deal. i be #### if you will see me going south of border until i feel 100% safe. don't think it's going to happen in my lifetime. but thats another topic for another day.

I treat folks like they treat me but I have no use for those who constantly look for an excuse for their own failings.

I think there are a lot more Canadians that drive like maniacs and can't read or speak English coming across the border than there ever will be Mexicans .
-
That's what I find amusing, gripe and complain about the Mexican trucks and drivers but not the Canadian.
I hear it on the radio, I hear it at truckstops and terminals...this is the most racist, prejudiced occupation I've ever seen.
