Anti-Illegal Immigration Speakers Attacked on Boston Common
A small group of activists crossing the country speaking against illegal immigration, were chased out of Boston by a group of Spanish speaking immigrants Saturday while attempting to deliver a speech on Boston Common. The six "Paul Revere Riders" are traveling by motorcycle to the capital of all 48 contiguous states, speaking on the need for America to protect its own borders and the negative economic impact of illegal immigration on this country. On Saturday, they made it to Boston, but were shouted down and yelled at by a group of people carrying signs in Spanish so that they couldn't finish their speeches. When they rode away, the camera men and photographers filming the event were chased and hit with signs. Two of the camera men, Jim and Joe Rizoli of Framingham, had to be escorted by Boston Police away from the event while the pro-illegal crowd menacingly taunted and surrounded them.

They are just hurting their cause even more...
Like that of the rallies in May. It made people realize they are full of ****.
I'm sure that incident had the same effect.
They are only making themselves look bad-- LET THEM!!

This is disturbing and heart breaking. Some whom answered are very ignorant! Some are very judgmental of you for just posting the question. It kills me to hear the way Americans talk to each other these days and especially to hear American people defend others who are causing 2 of our own harm. Here's a little something for the PRO's to read and think about while they're supporting this insane movement of illegal immigrants.....this is from the Mecha Constitution.......Chicanismo is a concept that integrates self-awareness with cultural identity, a necessary step in developing political consciousness. Therefore the term Chicano is grounded in a philosophy, not a nationality. Chicanismo does not exclude anyone, rather it includes those who acknowledge and work toward the betterment of La Raza. Chicanismo involves a personal decision to reject assimilation and work towards the preservation of our cultural heritage......................
"We the People" should be afraid and should be fighting this to no end.

The people who attacked have a HUGE problem - they are trying to infringe on the civil rights of people!
I don't care if the people speaking are people I agree with or not - they have the same right to speak that I do! If one group ever has the right to prevent another from living under the same protections they demand for themselves, then that group must go!
If people want to live here, then they need to live by the same laws I do. Otherwise they should be cuffed and tossed.
I support legal immigration. It is the actons of the protesters that I find repugnant.

Friggin illegal scum! This is not the first incident of illegals attacking people who are anti-illegals,either! This is at least the third incident that i've heard about. Friggin illegals all need to be deported, after they've had theshit beat out of them.

The pro-criminal crowd has essentially no logical argument for breaking the law. If you notice all they do is revert back to racism or justification for being here due to humanitarian reasons or a claim that they have some historical right to the land.

It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that they're not interested in the First Amendment .. if citizens want to invoke it ... another matter if the illegals want to rant and shout of course ... they are getting too cocky by far, and our spineless politicians aren't doing much about it either .... the pro illegal fifth columnists in our midst are aiding and abetting law breaking on a massive scale with impunity and under the guise of "humanism" ... and the tax payers are picking up the tabs as usual ... tiresome ....

Yet no violence from the anti illegal supporters when the illegal aliens marched. Interesting that they break our laws in the first place and then try to hinder freedom of speech from American Citizens. Now what on earth is wrong with that picture..

That is just crazy!! These people that hit the camera men better be in jail !!! (do you know if there were any arrests made?)
It's getting crazy.....this is just a taste of what they are willing to do. I mean deportations have started, we have the guard on the border. These illegals are starting to get the hint and they do NOT like it!! So now they will prove to us with violence that they are not happy......do they honestly think they are helping their cause by acting like this?? It only makes me want them out more!! The actions of these criminals speaks LOUDLY and for those of you sitting on the fence....take your friggin hearing aids out !!!

There you go.......Yarbaby.....lump everyone who has a different opinion in one "tidy group".
There is no way to compare peoples beliefs.......these people were COMPLETELY overboard as were those who attacked them.
Why are ALL the PRO's judged by this incident. Jesus.......are you implying that all people who see things DIFFERENTLY than you want a complete break down of what the United States is.........how ignorant is that.
