How do you support Lantinos? Eat tacos!

Four East Haven police officers were indicted on Tuesday for illegally targeting the Latino community, prompting Mayor Joseph Maturo to voice his support of the embattled officers. When asked by a New York City-based WPIX reporter what he’s doing to support Latinos, the Republican mayor said, “I might have tacos when I go home.”

Maturo, who was a former five-term mayor before being elected again in November, apologized for the comment later on Wednesday. According to WFSB, Reform Immigration for America said anyone who "texted "Taco" to 69866 it would send a taco on their behalf." 500 tacos have been sent.

His explanation sounded worse the longer he spoke. He should have quit about 30 seconds in. Good to know he likes ethnic food.
