Leftist Groups Smear, Threaten Latino UT Student Over Planned Immigration Stunt

The University of Texas college student at the helm of the controversial and eventually cancelled “Catch An Illegal Immigrant” event has come under extreme fire, including death threats and accusations of being a “traitor to his race,” Clash Daily reports.

The event had been structured to reward students with $25 gift certificates for catching student-actors walking around campus adorned with “illegal immigrant” signs.

“I acknowledge that decision to include issuing $25 gift cards during the event was misguided and that the idea for the event was intentionally over-the-top in order to get attention for the subject,” Lorenzo Garcia, head of the UT-chapter of the Young Conservatives of Texas, which organized the event, has stated. “It is a simple fact that illegal immigration is a concern in this country and that it is one we must face.”

Clash Daily reports the young man has now become a target.

Garcia is being painted by the ever-so-tolerant Left as a “promoter of hate” while they meanwhile call him an “Uncle Tom,” a “traitor to his race,” and make death threats against him, all for merely planning a role-playing exercise to provoke discussion about enforcement of U.S. immigration laws.

Garcia is having his young life and future virtually ruined, says someone close to him, who is concerned about Google searches of Lorenzo’s name producing results including “racist,” and “race traitor,” just because he intended to stage a mock play about immigration enforcement. …

The numerous media stories about the controversy mainly haven’t reported on the harassment and death threats Garcia has received; I (Donald Joy) had to learn about that part in an email from someone personally connected to Lorenzo. That person writes:

“I just cannot grasp how it is more hateful to believe that people should be legal citizens than it is to try and literally ruin a young college student’s life (a young hispanic college student – first in his family to go to college).

“Because his views aren’t the mainstream views of the hispanic community democrats are calling him a traitor to his race and telling him he is not allowed to have those beliefs.”
