EXCLUSIVE: The go cook my burrito bitch guy speaks outFootage of a shirtless man shouting go cook my fucking burrito bitch to some Mexicans made the rounds yesterday,
in what many people saw as the archetypal Trump supporter.
.............
Now Zack, 30, who was attending Trumps rally in Phoenix, has spoken out to say the clip that was seen by millions in fact misrepresented him, and that anti-Trump protesters started it all by spitting on him.
Heres his side of the story:
What would you like to say to the people who saw that video?
I just want people to know, dude, I love all colors. Im no racist. I am who I am. Theres people out there of all colors that are horrible. Whites, browns, blacks, yellows out there, it doesnt matter. Its the color of your heart. You know how many people messaged me to say thank you so much for other people will not do because theyre scared? It sucks that people are scared to stand up for what they believe in, and yet Latinos can do it and its fine. And if we do it? Were racist. White people? The only race you can legally discriminate against. People make movies about us and do we get mad? Like White Chicks? If there was a movie called Black Chicks, it would be a huge race thing. Do you understand? Do you know what movie Im talking about, right? We couldnt do that, no way, theyd be like, this is so racist. And yet they can make a movie making fun of white people. I just wish people could get over what happened back in the day, to Mexico or Blacks. That was back in the past, people dont get over it and it sucks. I forgive and forget. A lot of people dont.

OP
He says "I forget" and he's proud of it. He doesn't know history. He doesn't care about history.

Not only does he forget, but he assumes the playing field is completely level today.

Sorry Trump, there is only one kind of people, humans, not different kinds, that's what's racist.

He has X-ray eyes to see the color of the woman's heart? We are all pink inside.
