Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik called Arizona "a mecca for prejudice and bigotry." Sounds like a good place for a pilgrimage!
An activist from Utah, Dan Baltes, arrived in Tucson on Thursday to start a recall campaign against the sheriff. “It is not antithetical to harmony,” he said, making a local gunshop his first stop to drop off recall petitions.
Sure, local Teabaggers were already working on this recall drive. But they needed backup. When a local politician says something about guns and hating Mexicans, it's no longer a local issue. It threatens people with guns who hate Mexicans everywhere. This is the new front. [ NYT ]
Arizona had a Japanese Internment camp. didn't they?
Why won't anyone from another state come here to Virginia and start a recall campaign against our Attorney General, that's what I want to know. Do we have to do everything ourselves?
