St. Louis American: Ward Connerly and the so-called Missouri Civil Rights Initiative have stooped to enlisting avowed racists and white supremacists to collect signatures for a ballot initiative designed to outlaw affirmative action programs by state and local governments in Missouri. With just three days left before the signature deadline, Connerly has become "desperate," according to Brandon Davis, co-chair of the WeCan Coalition, which was formed to fight the ballot initiative. Connerly has contacted Stuart H. Hurlbert, a San Diego State biology professor and secretary for the anti-immigrant Californians for Population Stabilization (CAPS), seeking assistance. Hurlbert then wrote to the Minutemen Project, lauding Connerly's effort and urged for people to come to Missouri and help his effort. The Minutemen Project is an anti-immigrant vigilante group. Hurlbert wrote that Minutemen would "get to interact with and make friends with some more can-do ‘salt of the earth' folks you may never otherwise meet." Reddit Hudson, racial justice manager for the American Civil Liberties Union of Eastern Missouri, said the Missouri Civil Rights Initiative also is seeking help through postings on white supremacist websites.
