"If Nothing Else..."

Nashville Metro Council member and national laughing stock Eric Crafton tells the Scene that his latest efforts to punish a small portion of Nashville's Latino community are motivated by his "patriotism," and that his proposed amendment will

"if nothing else," fight "stereotypes"

"If nothing else" indeed.. Makes you wonder which stereotypes he's fighting. 'Cause it sure ain't the ones about the GOP's backwoods, knuckle-dragging hatred of Hispanics.

By the way, I really think if the referendum passes, someone should sue the city to have Crafton's bio page scrubbed of any reference to his Magna Cum Laud [sic] honor from Vanderbilt. Can't have people going around talking that Latin crap, can we?
