Los Angeles Immigration Protests End in Violence

We have been invaded by a foreign army!! Have you been reading the reports of violence during the "national wetback protest day" across the country? Here's a sampling from the largest gathering of illegals: Violence broke out between immigration rights advocates and police officers May 1 after a day of peaceful marching through downtown Los Angeles. About 25,000 people waving American and Mexican flags marched from City Hall to MacArthur Park, including 1,480 Los Angeles Unified School District students. Organizers had predicted lower turnout, blaming stepped-up immigration raids for keeping wetbacks at home.

The violence erupted at MacArthur Park after protesters threw rocks and bottles at police officers. Officers fired rubber bullets and used batons to push the crowd out of the street and back onto the sidewalk. Dozens of officers were deployed to the area, but it was unclear whether anyone was injured. Though fewer in number, protesters did show up in cities from Miami to Chicago to Los Angeles - but violence was worst in Los Angeles. These are the same Mexican illegals who believe we should give them citizenship.

For example, one illegal is quoted as saying: "After working 22 years here, paying taxes and being a good citizen (No... good citizens are legal), I think it's fair they give me residency," said Los Angeles protester Manuel Hernandez, 38-year-old Mexican who along with his wife and two children are undocumented. "It's not fair we don't have documents." (No... what's not fair is that you are still here). But enforcement through deportation is sporadic at best!! If these Mexican illegals feel terrorized in the United States, perhaps they should try going back home!!
