Ad Was Full-Page Hatemongering

I found the full-page paid advertisement published on June 19 titled “Americans Betrayed . . . Reconquista * Reelection” a blatant form of hatemongering.

The alarmist presentation of how the Mexicans are taking over could have been written about all ethnic groups who have arrived within the last 150 years--the difference being that the L.A. Times would have rejected as racist an advertisement alerting the public to an African-American, Irish or Jewish takeover in governmental representation.
