In America, those kids could get a college education without belonging to a subversive organization. To say that it is the only reason they did is rediculous.

I know nothing about Bustamante. I have only appearances to go on. And the name. I am probably 100% wrong here, but the guy's look, his walk, his attitude, and his name spell ORGANIZED CRIME, to me.

And to say that the only reason some of them did get an education is because of a racist organization is also racist and the ultimate put-down of another's abilities to succeed on their own merits.

I wonder if these scumbums would think that the Klan was okay if what they did, in addition to burning crosses and preaching racism, was to send the children of their members to college on a "whites only" scholarship program? Would that make the Klan acceptable in their eyes? Would they view members of the Klan favorably under such circumstances? Would it help Robert Byrd come out of the closet and put on the sheets once again?

Correct. I think it's the "little man syndrome." These guys entered this tough, swaggering, militant organization to make themselves feel like tough guys, like people of substance, or at least people who were to be feared. The appeal of MENChA is pathological.
