    [Editor's Note: After making the statement, and after the above story was published, Lizette J. Olmos, communications director for the League of United Latin American Citizens, overruled the press statement and requested that her comments be dropped from the article.]

    Guacamole is yummy, not offensive ...this is ridiculous.
