Durka-Durka-Muhammed-Jihad!!
It would seem like the Barking Moonbat Brigade™ detachment at my old college is awakening from its coma.
From the psychos at Indy Media here in San Diego:
*** RALLY ON CAMPUS THIS THURSDAY 11OOAM SEE ATTACHMENT ******Of course, the article isn't to be found anywhere so I can't assert that these claims are true. Considering the Sun at Southwestern College, it's very doubtful that they'd publish anything like that.Esteemed Friends,
In the December 8, 2004 edition of Southwestern college newspaper The Sun, an editorial entitled "Illegal Immigrants are taxing on American Citizens" (attached) was published in the "viewpoints" section of the paper. Members of F.I.S.T, MECHA, other on campus organizations, and members of the faculty and staff are outraged! We find it to be a brutally insensitive slanderous, attack on undocumented immigrants! The writer of this article goes so far as to call US Citizens to commit violent hate crimes against undocumented people!
In the past weeks S.F.C.A and MECHA have launched a campaign against racism and have since collected over 700 signatures from students that feel attacked harassed and let down by Southwestern College, the sun Newspaper, and the school administration.Which means that they've gotten off their asses and are attempting to justify their existences at SWC.
Last Thursday January 27, 2005 representatives from both student organizations and their advisors met with the editors and Professor in charge of the newspaper in an effort to put the issue to rest. The students presented their demands (listed below). However, the writer, editor, and staff, of the sun fail to see the gravity of the situation. The meeting ended with the writer of the piece Nathaniel Pownell screaming, "I will not apologize for the article, I will never apologize for the article!"It would appear that they 'MEChA mentality' did not prevail as they would have thought.
This Monday January 31,2005 The Sun sent a letter in response to those demands that unfortunately failed to address any of our concerns. The letter was beautifully written and meant to appease but the truth of the matter is that our demands were ignored. Now more than ever we need to make it clear that this racist attack is not tolerable!We didn't get our way!! Waaaahhhhhh!!!
Needless to say, for the students this is not over! We demand:'Statute of Limitations'??
1. A printed apology form The Sun to the students of Southwestern College
2. A retraction of the line that begins" "It's time to burn the leeches off of our society."
3. That a statute of limitations be set on what the school newspaper can print!
4. That our school newspaper remains free of racist propaganda!
Oh - these dorks mean that they want some sort of oversight committee that will determine what is 'fit' to print.
The battle is far from over! We need your support!Oh please - get fracked, will ya? It's one thing to see the Moonbats up at UCSD - they at least have some sembalance of an argument, but the Southwestern College crowd?!? Most of them still think that college is like high school except you're allowed to smoke on campus.It is important for San Diego unite with the students of SWC and let the College administration know that this will not be tolerated!
UPDATE: I sent an e-mail to the people behind this protest requesting a link or something to this editorial and they replied quickly.
I've read it and as I expected, it's nothing close to being racist. The writer is merely talking about the number of illegal immigrants that come into the United States and how they utilize public services to a significant sum of money; it's the reason that many emergency rooms here in Southern California are being closed - illegals are using them as clinics and the hospitals are being forced to treat them with no hope of being compensated.
Additionally, those voices of reason at La Voz de Aztlan have chimed in and all that can be said is that if they're siding with this protest, there's nothing of merit in their *cough* claims. I doubt they've even read the damn article....
