From the Obvious Department, Latinos seem to have a growing distrust of the Republican Party.

Gee, I wonder why?

Here’s one example of the toxic environment the GOP has created. An American citizen (born in Puerto Rico) was held by La Migra for three days on suspicion of being an illegal alien. Sure, he was busted for possibly committing a crime, but he got out on bail for that. That doesn’t make him an illegal. He even had all his papers and they held him over a weekend.

But, hey, the cops and conservatives couldn’t possibly be racist because they didn’t believe his paperwork was real. Right? Just like they can’t believe Hawaii issues legal birth documents I suppose.

Right?

Not only do the anti-immigrant folks border on racism, they just plain lie to back up their beliefs.

Gustavo Arellano is collecting the nation’s regional racial slurs for Mexicans.

It’s kind of in good fun and also an indicator of how low some folks can be.

Gustavo Arellano weighs in on Aryzona’s Down on Brown law.

Also, a quick blurb from him concerning Cinco de Mayo.

Read this. More about the madness in Aryzona.

In a nutshell, you can’t learn about anything but white history in Aryzona.

Oh, and if you have an accent – whatever that means – you can’t teach people English.

Presumably this won’t be applied to, say, white Texans teaching English.

Republicans don’t care if you were born here. They just want to deport anyone who is brown. Hey, Hunter, my mom wasn’t a citizen when I was born. Come on over here and try to deport ME, punk.

While the State known as Arizona seethed and Latino parents fell on their knees with Rosaries in hand to pray for the future of their children Governor Jan Brewer went out for a tony dinner with gal pal and media made millionaire Sarah Palin.

All you need to know about the soulless Republicans ruining our nation can be addressed . After initiating second class citizenship for anyone brown-skinned in her state, the governor of Aryzona just had to run off to a ballgame with her race-baiting pal Sarah.

But we’re supposed to believe that the Tea Bagging Terrorists are neither racist nor bigoted.

Riiiiiiiight!

On a side note, what is it with disabled wingnuts being the worst? They collect disability but hate the government. They face discrimination in their lives but are among the most racist, sexist, and hateful folks. Not to generalize but of those who live in a world of seething hatred, the worst of that ilk seem to have a wheelchair.

You still think the Tea Bagger crap isn’t racist? Read this.

You KNOW the army would be sent out to confront and probably kill an angry, anti-government mob of minorities armed to the teeth calling for the president’s death.

Just saying.
