Just When You Thought It Wasn't Safe To Go Back To Arizona

I was just across the street at the shopping center and a pickup was parking that was flying a pretty large Confederate flag. Not a common sight in the Bay Area, even out in the slightly more conservative edge of it.

I was just shaking my head at idiots willing to put their idiocy on display but a woman nearby did confront him about it (while a sentiment I support, an action I don't particularly condone) and he said it was to show his support of the Arizona immigration law.

I'm guessing that's not a connection that many in power there would like drawn and certainly doesn't help with the argument that the law has nothing to do with race/ethnicity.
