Hi all,
In the midst of the immigration debate after the historical marches for immigrant rights from last spring, new and despicable racist "trends" have surfaced: frat boys hosting racist "parties" (Santa Clara University mocking Latinos with a "South of the Border" party, NYU with a "Find the Illegal Alien" party); white people kidnapping, harming and killing undocumented immigrants (Tucson, Arizona, February 8); day laborers being attacked and killed in the streets of Oakland and Richmond; city laws and ordinances prohibiting landlords to rent to undocumented immigrants (Hazleton, Pa., Escondido, Ca., etc).
While it is true that the people that commit these despicable acts and crimes are racist themselves or just plain ignorants (and thus easy prey to manipulative bigots), it is also true that they wouldn't go that far without the push and hatemongering received from irresponsible and racist media personalities such as the well-known toxic bullies Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage and Lou Dobbs.
The latter hosts a daily smear and misleading campaing against immigrants in CNN; his so called show is full of false statements which he uses to steer fear and hate among his audience, which, without an objective and credible source of information are easy prey to his manipulations and unethical behavior.WE HAVE TO STOP HIM NOW! For our own sake, for our chldren, for our own health. This individual is poisoning our society. Let's not wait till sick people like him turn the infamous Minutemen into the 21st century KKK.
One way to let them know we don't accept their bullying and to prevent them from harming us any more is to call the TV/Radio companies where they work and demand that they stop spreading such bile. Another way is to send them emails with the same demands. I just did the latter, I accessed CNN's website and sent the message below. Please join me in stopping this horrible people from attacking not only immigrants but the society as a whole.
Click the link below and send them the message I sent or feel free to create your own message, but please do it now!!!!
Gracias de todo corazon!!

Mr. Dobbs is a very irresponsible media personality, his inflamatory (and totally misleading and erroneous) comments towards undocumented immigrants are only creating and spreading hate and fear towards those immigrants who in their countries of origin are pushed (by the very economical policies created in this country by its elected officials) to go abroad and look for better life and working conditions. His hatemongering towards people of color is only comparable to the hate created by the infamous film "Birth of a nation" when the even more infamous and despicable group called Ku Kux Klan arose to power.People like Mr. Dobbs should be put behind bars under the strict supervision of professional psychiatrists with specialty in paranoia to keep him from spreading such bile across the land.
