It shouldn't matter either way. But the writer was explaining why people kept calling security on the guy.

Yes, I was thinking the same. I'M NOT MEXICAN SO STOP CALLING SECURITY? He would call security if he spots a Mexican then?

I believe the point was the neighbor was harassing him because she could and not because he or his lifestyle was in anyway disruptive. First, calling security and undoubtedly describing him as a "Mexican looking guy" trespassing in the neighborhood. Then when he declared he was not Mexican, she picked something else to harass him about. No one said either was okay.

I think they mean he's not running around with a rainbow cape or making out with guys on her front lawn.

Is there any possible way anything can be worded without offending some of you? At some point you have to breathe deep and accept that sometimes things aren't worded in an intentionally offensive way, and that, in order to live in peace and tolerance and not spend every waking hour analyzing and feeling hurt about every single word, you just have to learn to live with it. Believe it or not, you've probably unintentionally offended people, yourself. It happens. We're human.

Naima, Thank you!! That bothered me, too!!
