En caso de que no est? consiguiendo la broma, estoy burlando de el estereotipo de que todos los americanos son ignorantes de otras culturas, as? como en sin educaci?n
That's where the line was crossed. When Clarkson does it, it's done with charm and is clearly self-effacing - the subtext is clearly "I'm ignorant and I don't care".
When Hammond said what he did, it was charmless and sounded just plain nasty. And for an American audience (I speak as an ex-pat living in the US), it was off-colour given the situation in states like Arizona. In the US, it really makes him sound like a idiotic, red-necked Glenn Beck fanatic. I just hope he realises...
That?s just because they are too fat to get off their chairs to type complaints and too ignorant to even recognize when somebody in another country says something.[...] You don't see our embassies bitching.
Bah, as a country with a driver in F1, winning drivers consistently in the top echelons of US motorsport and a number of excellent and historic race tracks, taking insult from what Jeremy Clarkson says about your country says more about you than him.
(not aiming that remark at you personally)
The Ambassador was pretty much forced into asking for an apology - but seriously this is no worse than anything else that comes out of Clarkson's mouth on a weekly basis. And let's be honest there is a reason he is so popular.
Bigots are bigots, and blaming others for their prejudices won't get you anywhere.
"You have to meet my cousin Speedy, he is the fastest mouse in all of Mekico"Since I'm currently stuck somewhat watching Looney Tunes cartoons, I'm just thinking of two words related to this situation:
Speedy Gonzales. And how and why those cartoons disappeared from public view.
I'm not a stuck up prude, I'll take what they dish out and enjoy a good TV show.Top Gear has jumped the shark, guys. Even The Economist has weighed in on this one. The remarks were painfully planned in advance and were taken too far. I know Clarkson has mocked Mexico before, but Richard really twisted the dagger here to the point where it really wasn't funny. How many more penis jokes and random, precoordinated racism can they cram in before the public turns on them?
Yea... google translate is not precisely a great translation...
No pondras mi comemtario moderador?? Ok gracias puedes seguirte riendo de mi cultura amigo de gringos!!!
:lol: How about a competition? Who can cut theI wouldn't be the least bit surprised if there's a Morris Marina dropped onto a Mexican VW Beetle in one of the next few shows.
Quite so. I would never have known of the re-fried Mexican sportscar if not for Top Gear and I wouldn't have started considering Romania as a holiday destination without the TG road trip... not for another couple of years anyway.It's Borat all over again.

Where are all the Australians defending Clarkson for wishing them well after all the flooding and devestation they have dealt with? Cmon Aussies!
Maybe a Mexican road trip should be next. A drag race down the "7" that is Cancun?

Cue the Mexicans: "Thank God for torrents!"Now, the National Institute of the Radio, which is a regulator by example radio network has banned of the programing of its 9 nationwide stations any and all content from the BBC.
