Whereas Jesus Spoke English Sayeth Councilman Crafton

We last wrote about the fanatical Councilman Eric Crafton back in December when Nashville's looniest Councilperson managed to persuade the city of Nashville that it was the city's business to resolve that Jesus was "an actual man."

Crazed Crafton even attracted the attention of the venerable Jesus General.

Since that day, Eric Crafton has apparently gone over to the seriously Dark Side. Now Councilman Crafton wants Nashville to adopt a devil of a resolution:

WHEREAS Jesus Spoke English - Nashville Shall Be English Only


The local Gannett paper thinks that if Crafton's cruel and dangerous English Only bill passes, Eric Crafton should be the target of future lawsuits:

The lawsuits should be filed against Councilman Eric Crafton. . . The bill would require: "All communications, publications and telephone answering systems of Metropolitan government boards, commissions, departments and agencies shall be in English only."

All communications. The bill forbids the use of anything but English by every helpful clerk, in every document and on every sign.

In other words, if you don't speak English, your house may just have to burn to the ground. You may just have to be raped, robbed and/or murdered.

And it will be your own damned fault. You should have learned English, sayeth the Anti-Christian Councilman Crafton.
