Racist mayor flees from giant pile of tacos.
An update for those following the saga of East Haven Mayor Joseph Maturo, America’s dumbest mayor.

Raw Story:
When recently asked about his support for Latino rights, the mayor of East Haven, Connecticut said that he “might have some tacos” for dinner. Little did he know, a local group of activists would be happy to take him up on that.
Days later, 500 tacos showed up at Mayor Joseph Maturo, Jr.’s office, courtesy of local activists with The Campaign to Reform Immigration for America. Sadly, he wasn’t there to receive them.
“When we delivered the tacos to [the] Mayor, he ran out the back door to avoid us,” the activists wrote on their blog, citing a report in local media. He allegedly had an important meeting to attend.

The group put out a call for concerned citizens to text them. For every text reading “taco” they received, they’d send a taco for the mayor. They got over 3,500 texts — which is a lot of tacos.
They didn’t go to waste though. According to the report, “While the group said they were disappointed that the mayor was not present to receive his tacos, they left one for him and donated the rest to feed the homeless.”
Making the best of a bad situation and turning a negative into a positive. Mayor Joe could learn something from his critics.
And weren’t we just talking about dumb racist conservatives? I believe we were.

Is this real?
