Friends,

I have just received a VERY DISTURBING e-mail from someone that I thought was going to work out as a good new supporter. While there is a chance she is being over sensitive, Im going to take her word as being genuine.

I do not have the time or ability to monitor these boards personally anymore while handling so many other things. Therefore, I am asking for all moderator, admin and activist support to address this problem.

We need to all address this as a full community here. So many of our supporters are LEGAL IMMIGRANTS and any credible report that there is true anti-immigrant sentiments on our site, even under the disclaimer of these boards, will be addressed.

Here is the message I received.

"Please remove me from your membership and email list."

"Dear Mr. Gheen,

While I whole heartedly support the published mission statement of ALIPAC it seems that the postings have increasingly broadened to suggest that "any immigrant is a bad immigrant". While I am not suggesting that this is your personal feeling or the hidden agenda of this group, I was concerned that this would potentially be the direction things were headed.

Thank you "

Now, I have requested that this person assist us by proving us with links to users and posts that would be considered anti-immigrant on our boards and I will share those if they respond.

In the mean time, I want everyone on our boards that cares about our boards to launch an immediate full search of our boards for any content that could even be interpreted this way.

I want us all to show how dedicated we are to being FOR LEGAL IMMIGRATION.

If we locate any posts that are anti-immigrant or offensive to all immigrants then those posts and those users will need to be addressed.

You can post links to comments you find that might be offensive here or PM them directly to me.

All ALIPAC operations are on hold till this is addressed.
