Bogota mayor accuses police of racial profiling – (anti-immigration mayor caught hiring 2 undocumented changes tone)
Tagged: Dental, English-only, New Jersey, policePosted on: October 15th, 2007“Accused of hypocrisy in hiring two illegal immigrants, the Bogota mayor – a staunch foe of illegal immigration – is turning the tables, accusing his own police department of racial profiling.
Steve Lonegan, whose English-only stances have made him a national figure in right-wing circles, last week said he accidentally hired two undocumented workers to assemble yard signs for his taxpayer-advocacy group. Police last Monday had picked up the two workers on Lonegan’s property, allegedly in response to a call from a neighbor who noticed two men inside the house.”*
