And note, Stormfront doesn't follow any1, so AZ GOP Senate Maj Leader isn't a victim of Twitter's auto-follow http://is.gd/bSJJY

So how does auto-follow work when SF has 0 followers? RT @BobBrigham: @markos I hate Chuck Gray, but he obviously has it set to auto-follow

Not.

Knowing how I follow people, I wouldn't be surprised if he raided someone else's follower list and Stormfront was one of those swept up.

He probably has a few more white supremacists that he's following.

You don't follow Don Black unless you are flat out racist, no two ways about it. I'm surprised the Senator was so clumsy about it, usually Republicans are more sneaky. Makes you wondering who is really pulling the strings in Arizona.

you can turn on that sets you to automatically follow anyone who follows you.

That is NOT the case here as the Stormfront account doesn't follow anyone.

This was a deliberate selection by whoever mans this account.

After Gray graduated from high school, he spent two years as a missionary in Spain. He is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and he speaks fluent Spanish. He returned to work in the family construction business as a brick, block and stone mason while attending Mesa Community College.

He later served as an officer with the Mesa Police Department for 10 years.

They might toss him out of the clubhouse.

Go figure.

And if his constituents didn't react to this revelatory information when Gray was running, I imagine that this news will cause nary a blip in their consciousness--especially when the polls in the media keep blaring out that people support that disgusting piece of legislation.

However, Gray's position of power within a state government is not new. The KKK and white supremacist organizations ran every political office from top to bottom for more than a hundred years in America. Even the sheriff, the garbage-man and the dog-catcher was affiliated with the KKK back in the day. And like now, their constituents voted them in and thought nothing of their representative's virulent racial animus.

After all, none of the constituents turned their heads when a lynching or a cross burning happened. Some even had picnics while those events happened.

There isn't any difference between now and then, except in the present day Gray's election and eventual seat of power says more about the people who voted him in than the man himself.

That a given number of people endorse what this man believes in should make anyone who has empathy and a conscience rather aghast.

It isn't the mouth-breathers that one should fear. It is "good God-fearing" folks that are the most unsettling in this society.

:wow:

Nice find to the folks who picked that out :toast:
