The right of petition is a sacred right to all Americans. and I have no thought of restricting or limiting it. Petitions sponsored or circulated by organizations of an unAmerican character are to be guarded against. however. even if they allegedly have a worthy motive. Indiscriminate association with such petitions may be no reflection on a persons loyalty. but can hardly do credit to his mature judgment. I see no reason to alter my previous statement that persons who sincerely desire to liberalize our immigration laws should not look to receive any real assistance from associations and individuals of a leftwing. fellowtraveling nature.
Identified stereotypes
Associating with organizations of an "unAmerican character" is seen as a reflection of poor judgment and potentially disloyal.
