Valuing Non-Minority Families

In news related to the previous post how about this asshole, David C Schultheis.

Another Republican trying to make illegal immigration a cornerstone of his agenda, wrote a letter to the Greeley CO newspaper to question the immigration status of several members of an Hispanic family that died after a car accident last week.
The family is here legally, and all of the victims were American citizens. The driver was licensed (although inexperienced and only 17) and was insured through the state of Colorado. But, because they have a last name that sounds "Mexican" this dickhead assumes they are here illegally and are going to be a burden on our healthcare system. So, he writes a letter to the newspaper calling for an investigation into their status. Now, when it is found out that the grieving family is legal, he refuses to apologize saying the question he raised was "legitimate."

Excuse me? Legitimate!??? How is calling for an investigation into the legal status of a family that just lost three children legitimate? Is that what Republican officials are passing off as family values these days. When it comes to valuing life I guess we know who gets the greater value.
