Last week the astronomical geniuses at the NAACP called “black holes” racist. This week Hispanic activists have one upped them in the stupid department by calling a proposed smoking ban in San Antonio racist.
No. Really. It has to be true, because no one could make up anything that crazy.
WOAI Radio has the story of the activists huffing and puffing:
The effort to ban smoking in all workplaces across the city appears to be going up in smoke, as prominent advertising executive Lionel Sosa tonight will brand the proposal as racist, 1200 WAOI news reports.
“The proposed ordinance is economically discriminatory to members of the Hispanic community,” Sosa will tell council, according to a text of his letter obtained by 1200 WOAI news. “When you look at the population of the small area bars, poll halls, and VFW halls that populate our community, you will see the overwhelming majority of those that will see their freedom of choice stripped from them by this ordinance are Hispanic-owned businesses.”
OK, NAACP, let’s see if you can top that one for stupidity. (When it comes to stupid, our money’s on the NAACP if for no other reason than they’ve had more practice.)
