Argentina is in the 3rd World and more importantly than that it is a former Spanish colony.Unfortunately,one of the things that the Spanish did not leave their colonies was a respect for law which the English were able to pass on to theirs.As a U.S. native that is something for which I am thankful to them.
The Spanish phrase ,"Obedezco pero no cumplo"--I obey but I do not comply" best sums up that attitude.I recognize that the law exists but I feel that ,for whatever reason,I am above it. Another phrase,"Hecha la ley,hecha la trampa"---"Where there's a law,there's a way around it". does also.
In most of Latin America we live another legal reality-- definitely more vague and very possibly more hypocritical----from English speaking countries.Hopefully,this will change here in Argentina.Chile and Costa Rica are notable exceptions to this state of affaires and I believe that Brazil is going thru labor pains in this regard.
Well, what were I saying about ignorancy?
The point is that the NC states that all the persons are welcome to live here so, seems that the categories that makes differences regarding the nationality or race are illegal. So...where does your reasoning finish?
