While on vacation I had the misfortune of being reduced to reading a Faye Kellerman book. Faye Kellerman is an Orthodox Jew. Since Jews have been persecuted throughout history you would think they would be more aware of the hurtfulness of bigotry. Apparently she’s not.
This story is a crime mystery. From the beginning almost every [...]
Conservatives complain that the race card is pulled out over any little thing and that they are unfairly labeled as racists. I just have to smile whenever I hear or read it. Lets examine what they do support.
Nick Morris, a student in the Klein ISD, tore down a Mexican flag that was being displayed on [...]

We are still in a fight for our lives against the Republicans here who seem to have a manifest destiny mentality that requires absolute assimilation by minorities. My anger is currently directed at our Texas Board of Education. [...]
Once again Arizona is leading the race to criminalize and ostracize Hispanics. Their current attempt is in trying to make it legal for the police to enforce immigration laws. A lot of people are under the impression that if an individual crosses into the United States without using the proper channels the police can just [...]

Fox News.com, which I am in agreement with those who refer to it as Fixed News, had linked a story that was originally published by the Washington Times. The story was in reference to a man named Roger Barnett from Cochise County, Arizona. As is common for both those “fine” publications, the article was slanted [...]

Apparently a woman, who is a naturalized citizen and who has lived in the United States for more than seventeen years, was stopped by a police officer. The article [...]
