Those Who Live in Glass Houses Shouln't Throw Stones: The Real Truth About Mexico Trucker

WARNING: SOME OF THE QUOTED MATERIAL BELOW MAY BE CONSIDERED OFFENSIVE BY SOME.

For some time now, a man by the name of Porter Corn has been running a website called Mexico Trucker. Rev. Corn is also a paid writer for Life on the Road, a trucking industry blog sponsored
by International.

Renee Taylor of American Truckers at War, also writes for Life on the Road. She and her husband, Mark, are diametrically opposed to the Mexican Truck Pilot Project recently opened by the FMCSA. They offer several valid reasons for this opposition, such as border security concerns, illegal immigration and drug smuggling concerns, and highway safety concerns.

Porter Corn claims to have set out to debunk myths about the Mexican trucking industry and set Americans’ minds at ease about the program. For the most part, he has offered valid counter-arguments to the opposition, although he has occasionally left out or ignored issues of great concern to the American public, often falling back on the labels of racism and bigotry when the arguments are not going his way.

Recently, an article written by Mark Taylor for the Family Security Matters Web site was posted on David Duke’s site. Now, this kind of thing happens all the time, under Fair Use. Porter Corn himself copies and pastes articles into his Mexico Trucker blog all the time. This time, however, he used this appearance of the article on David Duke’s Web site to flame the Taylors. Calling them racists due to the assumed association with David Duke.

Now, that is an assumption that is hard to call valid. Especially when an article from Truck News appears on the same page. Or, are we to suppose that Truck News is racist too?

Later, when posters began attacking Mr. Corn for his shadier associations, he dismissed their claims as baseless assumptions. He did admit to owning and running a site called Ladies of Nuevo Lardeo, but stated that it was not a porn site, that he was not responsible for its content
(the posters are), nor did he have ANY association with prostitution.

He may or may not have a beautiful wife and four children, as he claims on his site, but that does not change his very own words in the past.

Words. They can really come back to haunt you, especially with the help of Google.
Sites owned by Corn in the past have alluded to "mongering" in Mexico. His posts, from his own past blogs. You see, nothing ever really disappears from the Internet.

On another site, he offers to "help others who venture south to this pussy heaven of Mexico."
On yet another he brags about waking up "with three naked Mexican whores entertwined with me and for the life of me, the last thing I remember was doing the boogloo on stage at the Sans Souci bar. Must of really impressed the muchachas!"

Of course, there’s much more, but there’s no point in posting all that here. The fact is that Porter Corn is involved in some pretty shady activities.

It may well be that prostitution is legal in Mexico, and it may well be that morality is subjective (and it is!), but such activities are not legal in the United States, and for the most part would be considered immoral by a large percentage of the U.S. population. To some extent, this association, which is proven, damages his credibility as an expert on "the good people of Mexico."

Porter Corn has attempted to cover up this association, as well as to discredit those who have discovered it. Now, he has blocked posts to the blog page in which this information was disseminated. It is all there, however, for any who really know how to use Google, to find. Yes, you will have to wade through pages and pages of his posts to technical forums, and tons of pages of his self-promotion of the Mexico Trucker blog, but it is there.

Maybe it was a mistake for Corn to hurl such accusations at the Taylors, and to those who oppose the Mexican Truck Pilot program. In doing so, he has opened a can of worms that cannot be shut. Now, all can see why he so adamantly professes his great love of Mexico. Certainly, it’s obvious why he chooses to live there

It's amazing how people such as the "Rev." Porter Corn feel as though they are above reproach with more than a checkered past in their slanderous trail of destruction.

After a few Google searches of my own, I know you speak the truth ghost writer.

Excellent work.

The truth lies somewhere in between on "all" issues. No one person knows it all. I do not consider Mr. Corn as slanderous to this issue at all. He is representing his side of the truth as he sees, just as you are. The research I have made on my own credits Mr. Corns views as very responsive and correct in many areas. Yet I value a few of the points on the other side of the coin. It's amazing to me that once truth begins to come out and not only one side of the coin is seen, then parties begin to "slander" the other stating how perverse the other is. Mr. Corn is an extremely knowledgable person in the trucking industry and his posting on Mexico Trucker and his views are greatly considered and weighed in the same character as the other party. Thank you for your opinions and thank Mr. Corn for his also.

Screaming your opinion the loudest doesn't make it more right.

Mark's essay was on David Duke's site because it fit and looked like it belonged on David Duke's site.

Their essays, their video, their rhetoric make them look like racists.

The other side might use racism to blur the issue, but the Taylor's play right into their hands and prove them right.

Ghost writer? Not brave enough to put your name on the truth?

I'm not afraid of my comments, but since I have no idea who I'm talking to, you get the same anonymity in return.

The Taylors don't do anything Glenn Beck, World Net Daily, many trucking sites, etc do.
By the way - did anyone notice a post on Cornball's mexico trucker - he quasi-apologized to a poster for calling everyone racist. His new word is 'bigot'. This is from a guy who lurks on the internet (myspace) looking for little mexican girls to "model" for him?
