(Sturtevant, Wisconsin) A Milwaukee-based immigrant rights group expressed displeasure after learning that illegal immigrant hunting permits, a novelty item, were being sold at a Citgo Auto Truck Stop owned by Robert F. Basil.
Reportedly, the group, Voces de la Frontera, construed the permits as being racist and promoting hate and violence.
As a result, Voces de la Frontera planned to protest the sale of the permits at a rally Saturday afternoon. However, when truck stop owner Basil learned of the group's intentions, he immediately removed all the illegal immigrant hunting permits from his business.
Consequently, Voces de la Frontera cancelled the protest nature of the rally and re-designated it as an award ceremony. Robert F. Basil will be presented with a Civic Business Award for removing the "KKK type sticker deemed racist."
Heh.
