Dan Weikel and Shelby Grad bring us some good news in this LATimes.com blog entry.
Felony charges have been filed and an arrest warrant issued for a well-known Orange County political activist suspected of committing election and voter registration fraud, the California secretary of State's office announced Wednesday.
Investigators in the agency's election-fraud unit said Nativo ["Larry"] V. Lopez, 57, of Santa Ana leased office space in Boyle Heights and registered to vote using that address although he lived with his family in Orange County. They also say Lopez, president of the Mexican American Political Assn., cast an illegal ballot in L.A. in the 2008 presidential primary.
I'm shocked. Shocked!
The Los Angeles County district attorney's office, which is working with the secretary of State, charged Lopez with four felonies: fraudulent voter registration, fraudulent document filing, perjury and fraudulent voting. A warrant was issued for his arrest and bail was set at $10,000. The offenses carry penalties of up to three years in prison.
Oh please please please let that happen. Larry is a "community organizer" racist victicrat who wishes he was the brown Al Sharpton. He defends things like cockfighting on "cultural" grounds. He advocates shamnesty and supports socialist causes.

This smells of racism.
Yes - whenever you are proven wrong or are busted doing something wrong, cry racism.

As a 3rd-generation Angeleno and Latino, people like Nativo are disgusting. When my grandparents immigrated here legally, they waited their turn and did it the proper way. They also made a point to learn English and try to assimilate as much as possible.
