Immigration Watchdog Retires Website
Immigration Watchdog Retires Website
By Digger
Long time pro-immigration enforcement activist Brook Young of Immigration Watchdog no longer has time to maintain the west coast based website ImmigrationWatchdog.com and has posted a message that he'll be taking a hiatus (possibly permanent). Don't be alarmed. Don't see this as waving the white flag. I am an old salty dog in the blogging world having been around for years and blogs and websites come and go.
It does not show a lack of caring by the individual, it all comes down to a lack of time. Brook is a person and like anyone else has goals for his future as well and sometimes those goals take up more time than you have to continue to volunteer large chunks on maintaining and running a website.
Brook says he'll still be actively involved in the fight against illegal immigration - and you can bet your bottom dollar on that! Most websites and blogs retire within the first month. The longevity and dedication that Brook has shown in actively participating on the street level, hours shooting and editing video and researching and writing content show his passion. I don't think most people realize the time dedicated to such a task for no pay until they try it themselves and become burned out within weeks.
There really is no money in political blogging and especially in activist blogging, so we all must do other things on the side - and when it comes to careers and family, well that comes first.
I personally send a congratulations to Brook for his longevity and his dedication and wish him well in the future as he moves out of the Los Angeles area. He'll still be around on message boards and at rallies, so don't count him out.
Cheers to you Brook!
