Neil Boortz is a racist, hate-mongering asshole
He was talking about the skyrocketing crime rate in some Georgia county, and then without any proof or backing source, claimed that most of that was due to illegal immigration. He then went on to talk about the "Mexican invasion", and that illegal immigrants kill 25 Americans every day (15 murders, 10 drunk driving).

Why are people like Boortz, Coulter, Savage, etc allowed to spew these racist lies over the public airwaves? This is exactly why we need the Fairness Doctrine reinstated, and we need to hold these bigots accountable for their words.

1. This is no way to start a thread
Everyone will just agree with you. ;)

Sounds like they are priming the pump to lose the Mexican Immigrant and Mexican American vote. Cool.

3. Well, nobody's perfect...
:hide:


In seriousness, I wish he had provided proof. In any argument, having even a shred of proof is helpful, and even I sometimes forget to cite sources.

But to provide none - shame shame, may tadpoles rain down onto his meatloaf.

4. That reminds me of something I read this morning:
Water is still wet.

14. Boortz is...(sigh)
I'm tired of people like Boortz, too tired to even think up new and innovative insults. Everybody just fill in whatever insult you can think of for Boortz and I'll agree with you.
