But what I do not understand is the victory dance some are doing now that the guys turns out to be a citizen... seems an inappropriate response, coming from fellow Americans, anyway

All it reflects is that some of us are sick and tired of the xenophobia around this place.

The fact that they felt the need to identify him as a US citizen tells you all you need to know about the problem. In fact, less than a 1/4 mile from the crash site is a Home Depot with an illegal day laborer hiring stop across the street, specifically installed by the city of Glendale since the illegals were running all around the street (San Fernando) and hassling/stopping people from getting into the Home Depot parking lot. I think anyone who assumed this a55clown was an illegal can be forgiven.

Oh I see. I thought it might be because you have identified illegal immigration as an issue of concern for social conservatives, and, not caring much for same, saw this nit as an opportunity to stick your thumb in their eye.
