Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is set to host "Saturday Night Live" on November 7th and the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), has slammed the decision, calling it a "slap in the face" to Latino viewers.
"This is not about lacking a sense of humor. Everyone knows that SNL is not just a comedy show. For the last 40 years, it has become a highly coveted platform for candidates from political parties who are looking to reach and connect with the American public," said Janet Murguía, President and CEO of NCLR.
"It is appalling, then, [for] a show with that history and that role to showcase a man whose campaign has been built on bigotry and demagoguery for the sake of buzz and ratings," Murguía said.

Protecting and encouraging your illegal brethren is a slap in the face to American citizens.

No thanks to an opinion from a racist hate group.

I wonder how they would feel if an immigrant broke into their home and then brought their family in and demanded they be allowed to stay for future generations, and oh if we can feed, cloth, provide health coverage, pay for their college, that would be reasonable, right?

La Raza == "The Race."
Bunch of racists feel like they've been slapped in the face.
Normally, the MSM would feel great about that. Would be joining in the slapping, in fact.

Even Cesar Chavez called La Migra on the illegals, I wonder, do they protest against him every March 31?
