Arizona Lawmakers Debating To Reaffirm Prejudice

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

Nettie Hunt and her daughter on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court after the landmark 1954 Brown -v- Board of Education of Topeka 347 U.S. 183 decision was handed down reaffirming American values that segregation has no place in the United States.

Ohio was the last state to ratify the 14th Amendment in 2003 but goofy lawmakers in Arizona must think that the Ohio Legislature overreacted when after 135 years they symbolically removed the stain of Segregation?

Small minded Arizona anti-immigrant zealots, have reopened century year old wounds resurrecting prejudice, bigotry and hatred of others based on ethnicity.

On the 13 May I wrote here that while Gov. Jan Brewer and other elected officials may want to wrap themselves up into the American Flag attempting to spin their controversial anti-immigrant law which critics call separatism and racially divisive, one does not have to look very far into Arizona’s behavior to not realize that their racial fears are leading them down a dark path.

Faced with what is morally right or immorally shameful, Arizona’s narrow minded lawmakers have chosen to reaffirm their unconstitutional prejudices in order to debate new legislation that would deny U.S. Citizenship to babies born in the state of Arizona to undocumented aliens.

Iranian Fascist President Ahmadinejad said in a 2006 letter to German Chancellor Merkel, “…wicked victors of World War II has terrorized, degraded and humiliated Germany” and then had invented the Holocaust to hold Germany ransom.

During the Islamic Hitler–Ahmadinejad visit today of China, Shanghai World Expo, the Iranian Tyrant once again threatened our best friend in the middle east saying that the “…Zionist regime will not survive. It is doomed.”

Why do pro-Hamas Demonstrators want to ship expired and dangerous medications to Gaza?

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

After Israel intercepted the uninspected ships that were headed to Gaza to make sure that there were no weapons or items that could be used to make weapons or bombs on them, the cargo aboard the ships that had contained expired and dangerous medication on them, were permitted to be sent on to Gaza.

Why are the Marxists such as Answer Coalition.org which I wrote about here having made up all sorts of untrue statements about our best friend in the middle east Israel, silent about this?

Why do the pro-Hamas Demonstrators condone the shipment of expired and dangerous medication to Gaza?

Why has the MSM been silent about this?

It sure is a good thing that Israel is inspecting the cargo before its cleared to be sent onto Gaza.

Flotilla’s aid shipment having being inspected and cleared was loaded onto trucks and sent to the Kerem Shalom Crossing.

Israel has not stopped humanitarian aid being sent to Gaza, upon inspection more than a million tons of aid have been sent to Gaza during the past year and a half.
