When I was little, I thought that Spanish and Italian were the same except Spanish was good and Italian was evil. I probably got this belief because the only Hispanic people I knew of were always friendly to us and would never hurt anyone, while my only knowledge of Italian people was scary, ruthless gangsters from DVDs and books my parents had.
