Another Trip Into the Urinal

Once again, the Winston Salem Urinal has shone as a beacon of light, shining fear, hate and ignorance into every life it touches. Today's effort is an editorial entitled "An Unwelcome Wave" and it's a beauty.

That unwelcome wave is the number of Minuteman Projects that are expanding around the country. Some of the better quotes are, "The movement, unjustly named for real patriots, now has chapters in 18 states"; "There are certainly problems in the way the U.S. government patrols its borders and deals with the employment of illegal immigrants. But those are problems the government should rectify - not a group of vigilantes. This is supposed to be a land ruled by law - not mobs." and "One Hispanic activist in Knoxville said he fears that the Minuteman volunteers are 'spreading a lot of misinformation and are terrorizing the ethnic community in the area.'"

Of course, nowhere in this editorial is there any justification for the vilification of the Minuremen or their aims - just that some Hispanics called the Minutemen "Racist", but I guess once you label someone (rightly or wrongly) you can dismiss them.

The best part of the editorial was the last line. After going through how wonderful these illegals are for us, they end with, "Many, of course, are here illegally. North Carolinians especially bothered by that should follow the American process and push their politicians to enact immigration reform. And they should condemn those who reject the American way by taking the law into their own hands."

I wonder who they're referring to when they talk about those who reject the American Way by taking the law into their own hands? Sounds like a perfect description of the Scratchback Brigade to me.
