Phil Kent/Letter to the Editor: Nigut should take King’s challenge on immigration

Isn’t it ironic that the Anti-Defamation League and its mouthpiece, Bill Nigut, engage in defamation?

Their target is D.A. King, an anti-illegal immigration activist and Marietta Daily Journal guest columnist who, according to Nigut’s Oct. 31 guest column, engages in “racial stereotyping and fear” when criticizing illegal immigrants and radical Islamists who sneak across our unsecured borders. Yet in Nigut’s warped world, everyone ranging from CNN commentator Lou Dobbs to the pope, no doubt, engages in “racial stereotyping and fear.”

As national spokesman for Americans for Immigration Control, and someone who considers King a sincere colleague trying to shape public opinion, I can attest that he welcomes every American regardless of ethnicity to our cause. And, because King and like-minded activists urged Georgia legislators to enact some of the toughest laws in the land to protect our quality of life from the illegal immigrant invasion, the vocal open-borders lobby wants to silence and intimidate us.

Nigut is a known liberal who shamelessly protects his friends with the Georgia Latino Elected Officials organization – a leftist group that continually attacks King. Nigut ought to accept King’s challenge to a public debate on the illegal immigration issue. I believe that Nigut, if he accepted the debate challenge, would be the one exposed as the true bigot.
