Fred Williams\/Letter to the Editor: ADL\u2019s tactics cannot go unchallenged<\/strong>
\nMarietta Daily Journal<\/p>\n

Published<\/a>: 10\/27\/2007<\/p>\n

It is becoming all too common by far left-leaning groups to demonize their opponents in hopes of distracting attention from real issues. <\/p>\n

Your story in Tuesday’s MDJ that the Anti-Defamation League had called local illegal immigration activist D.A. King and the Marietta-based Dustin Inman Society he formed a hate group illustrates this cynical and dishonest tactic. <\/p>\n

Not only does the ADL cloud the real problem of uncontrolled immigration and its associated costs by smearing King, but it goes further to personally attack him by saying “when the cameras aren’t rolling, he uses hate-speech to characterize undocumented (illegal<\/a>) workers.” How they supposedly know this is undisclosed. It is at the core of the open-borders crowd to brand anyone who supports enforcement of existing laws governing immigration as a racist. It’s the “big-lie” tactic. <\/p>\n

I know Don King. I speak with him on a business basis at least once a week when the cameras aren’t rolling. Never, in the time that I have known him, have I ever heard him utter a single word that could be interpreted as racist or hateful toward anyone. What I have heard him say is what the vast majority of Americans believe: The border control situation is out of control. Every poll shows most Americans want the problem solved without blanket amnesty. They want our borders secured. That doesn’t make them racist. <\/p>\n

The open-border views and dishonest, even desperate tactics, of groups like the ADL cannot go unchallenged. Illegal immigration is hurting the country. <\/p>\n

Maria Litland\/Letter to the Editor: Immigrant offended by ADL report<\/strong><\/p>\n

Published<\/a>: 10\/27\/2007<\/p>\n

It’s absurd that anyone would label MDJ immigration columnist D.A. King as “anti-immigrant.” I am an immigrant that came to the United States the legal way. <\/p>\n

Illegal aliens are not immigrants. They are foreign nationals who have entered our country illegally<\/a>. I support D.A. King and The Dustin Inman Society for his pro-immigrant and anti-illegal alien positions. <\/p>\n

I am offended to be bundled into the same category of immigrant that the Anti-Defamation League feels illegal aliens belong to. <\/p>\n
