So I'm sitting in the SCC right now and a little concerned that somebody is going to look over my shoulder at my computer screen because...

Yeah. This still exists.
I couldn't convince myself that it was worth the stares to read through the full website, but a brief glance pointed out a few key points--the ever present fear of miscegenation and the extreme adherence to religion.
I feel at least a little better in that within the first paragraph, the authors use the wrong "there" instead of "their."
Curious about the discussion of immigrants in the first paragraph...if anybody can figure out what's trying to be said, let me know.

I was a little hesitant to click on the link too! As for their discussion of immigrants, it seems like they assume that immigrants are hurting the U.S. economy by sending their earnings back home. Their argument is that because immigrants are detrimental to the economy, and not as patriotic as U.S. born citizens, that they should be deported. I noticed their poor grammar as well, and in addition to their poor logic, made me feel marginally better.
