Carl’s in Nicaragua
John Hopkins’ letter of Oct. 10 challenged CSUN students’ moral stand against a Carl’s Jr. restaurant on campus. The students protested Carl Karcher’s anti-abortion stand and rightly so.
But Hopkins should know this: It was Karcher’s dollars that also helped finance the illegal Contra army in Nicaragua. Many men, women and children died. Carl’s really got a bang for his buck, you might say. Double talk! Double standards! You name it, Mr. Hopkins.
