Manassas Mauled

The Washington Post, a step or two behind Bacon’s Rebellion, has an editorial this morning denouncing the City of Manassas for its anti-immigrant zoning policy that redefines the concept of “family.”

America was built on diversity, and to mount a campaign of harassment against it, as Manassas has done, dishonors the nation’s immigrant tradition as well as constitutional protections.

Stephanie McCrummen, the Post reporter whose story exposed the human consequences of the policy, has a follow-up story today where city officials, while refusing to return phone calls, issued a defense of their policy.
