Very well said.
The one silver lining to the piece is that even though the NYT calls the laws racist, even putting the accusation in the subtitle, it has very little sting. I wonder if the libs realize how much jeopardy their beloved race card is in these days. Hey NYT, it’s not racist to enforce the law.
I will also say that the new immigration law is very popular here in AL. I think it’s somewhere in the 60 to 70% range, with even half of Democrats supporting it. The newspapers here are liberal, but they function more as comic relief than anything else (they’re what the NYT would be in a sane universe). They are of course against the new laws, but they are roundly ignored. The only threat to the new law would be some kind of federal court action, which is precisely what the NYT is agitating for in this piece.
Thanks for your reply and the information on the new law in AL. I think more and more states will take action as Alabamans have. All you read in the Slimes is that crops are rotting in the fields as a result.
