Whenever small town America decides to do something nutty like this, the small town brains who live in other places, like Omaha, decide to fuel up the F150 and drive up to the local burgh and attempt to throw in their two pesos, which usually consists of "what is it about illegal you don't understand?" followed by them leaning back and smirking like they oughta be writin for that Jay Leno fella. Oh, there was plenty of that up yonder, along with State Patrol, Omaha cops, Dodge County Sheriffs, and Fremont police to keep them from shootin up the place. But the Fremont City Council deadlocked at 4-4, which effectively killed the ordinance. However, a man named Skip Edwards, honorable mayor of Fremont, decided he would kill it deader than dead and voted against it also. He didn't have to vote at all. The issue was dead. But he voted anyway, and pissed of most of Fremont. To be fair, a lot of people gave the 69 year old $4800 a year mayor a standing ovation. To be even fairer, he needed a police escort home.
I can see both sides of this issue. I am conflicted on the issue. However, on some occasions you have to choose sides. You have to decide with whom you will stand. The bigots and the white supremacists and the gun nuts and the bad spellers (see above) all hate illegals and actually believe some American would actually make Spam for 6 bucks an hour. I can't stand with them. I can't take the I.Q. hit.
