Original Post
Whole Foods is based in Austin, Texas, a state which is accustomed to keeping their Hispanics as secondary citizens, even though they are now a minority majority state like New Mexico. The difference is that in New Mexico we do not tolerate intolerance. Now they have fired two employees for speaking Spanish, allegedly because this would make the customers uncomfortable. This is nonsense. I speak Spanish all the time and people have never expressed any discomfort over this. The fact is that their Texas-acquired bias has shown its nasty face. I am now informing Whole foods that I will no longer shop their stores. They might as well pull out and return to Texas, the land of bigots. They are no longer welcome here in New Mexico. This is my land.
