Dear Mr. MacCracken,

The article, posted in your esteemed "Chronicle on Line" regarding VCT/American Patrol, displays such staggering ignorance of the true nature of this organization that I am rendered speechless........almost.

I challenge you to find, document and report any instance where this patriotic group of citizens has "associated with pro white and anti Hispanic ideologies."

American Patrol has, I dare say, a larger percentage of black and Latino activist members than is to be found in the government of your State.

Oh, by the way, regarding the public utility's rule prohibiting religious or political groups from using the facility, what, may I ask, has protecting the borders of this nation from invasion to do with either religion or politics. Perhaps it is a reference to the perverted interpretation of the religion of Islam which was used to justify the murder of thousands in New York and Washington, D.C. All of the murderers were aliens. Most of them were here illegally and they killed primarily because we in this country are at liberty to display the type of stupidity which was ever so amply demonstrated by your publications treatment of American Patrol.

If you are truly a news outlet, and not merely an electronic supermarket ' throwaway ', then do your homework. Verify allegations; obtain the necessary second source for each story; why, you might even consider contacting the victims of your (heretofore) shoddy reporting, in order to get their side of things. A proper news organization, no matter how they may feel about an issue, will at least attempt to be accurate in their reporting. You have a long way to go. Why not start now by doing a fair and accurate report on American Patrol and its attempt to save America from more of what happened on September 11, 2001.

Very truly yours,

John G.
