It's so, so very true.

Refried beans for breakfast...it's the only way to go.

I actually also have that same question for my US peeps that live in the south(Mississippi,georgia,etc)
I can't say from experience, but a friend of mine (who happens to be Mexican) was engaged to a Scot and everytime she would go visit him, his grandmother would call her "The Mexican Girl" instead of using her real name...apparently Grandma was slightly off her rocker though, so I'm not sure what that means! lol. But no one ever tried to lynch her.
And, I don't know if your questions for US southerners could be directed to Texans (because apparently we don't like to think of ourselves as being part of the south), but mostly I would say no, you won't get lynched for showing up in town. Especially if you're in a larger city. There are some small towns around Houston like Vidor and Jasper that have been known to be less than friendly to anyone who's not white. Idiots...
