More on the Arizona Mural Controversy: Proof That Arizonians Are Racist

by Chris W. My Thoughts on Freedom

You would have thought that Arizona raised the Confederate flag over the state capitol today.

In the biggest non-story of the day, the left is all aflutter with the news that in Prescott, AZ artists were asked to lighten the faces of children on a mural on the Miller Valley Elementary School. This story is such big news that it is at the top of Memeorandum. Actually it is a slow news day and this is really the best the left can muster to rant about.

Not ones to take the explanation by the school's principal, Jeff Lane that the committee who commissioned the mural wanted the artists to "make [the children] look happier and more excited, fix the scale of the faces and remove some shadowing that made the faces darker than they are." the nutroots on the left are crying racism even though the one of the artists even admitted that the requested changes would "make the mural more accurately depict the photos of the Miller Valley School models."

You see, the progressives are not happy with Arizona's stand on illegal immigration and are enraged that we will not back down to their rhetoric and lies. So what is a radical to do? Rule 5 says ridicule is man's most potent weapon and rule 13 says pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it and if you don't think this is what they are trying to do, read here and here and here and here.

It is much ado about nothing if you ask me.
