Comment (by seeitcoming):

 Trashing the integrity of Russia and Argentina vs. the US is incorrect in
 addition to being unwelcoming-bordering-on-offensive: the Global Integrity
 Report [http://www.globalintegrity.org ranks Argentina] higher than the US
 for its legal frameworks, and overall.

 It seems very much like the channel ops were more interested in cracking
 race jokes ("Mexican't" is not a word I want to see in a Fedora channel,
 particularly not when deployed by native English speakers against a
 Spanish speaker) than answering the original interesting question, or
 allowing anyone else to.

 I think it reflects incredibly badly on the community for channel ops to
 be hassling someone based on their nationality. The IRC channels are
 supposed to be welcoming and polite.
