Sheriff Daron Hall Spoke To The Council Of Conservative Citizens

Dude, seriously. Have you not read a news article in the past ten years?

Maybe in 1999 you could have claimed ignorance, not in 2009.

Davidson County Sheriff Daron Hall was a featured speaker for a nationalist white hate group that condemns blacks, immigration and is in favor of preserving the country’s “cultural and racial integrity.”

Hall spoke about his department’s controversial 287(g) federal immigration program at a Nov. 22 dinner of the Council of Conservative Citizens held at the Piccadilly Cafeteria on Murfreesboro Pike in Nashville.

The Council of Conservative Citizens opposes “mixing of the races,” homosexuality and nonwhite immigration — legal and illegal, according to its statement of principles on its Web site.The St. Louis-based group stems from the the racist, anti-integrationist White Citizens’ Councils of the 1950s and 1960s, according to the Anti-Defamation League.
