Thousands of people have demonstrated in Los Angeles to demand citizenship rights for illegal immigrants. A 3,000-strong crowd carrying American flags and holding signs saying "Amnesty Now" paraded through the streets towards City Hall.
What are your thoughts about this?!

Perhaps if the ICE people were doing their job they coud have gotten a whole crowd loaded up and heading for Mexico real easy. Does this make sense, if a large crowd of bankrobbers demonstrated downtown demanding that no more dye packs were put inside their bags of loot, the local police would love it. Clean up the cess pool real quick. But why does our media cover it with such obvious regard for the law breakers?

1) Illegal Aliens are NOT Immigrants. 2) Illegal Aliens have no Constitutional Rights as does a Legal US Citizen. 3) End ALL Entitlement Programs and watch the Illegal Aliens deport themselves. 4) Do away with Sanctuary Cities.

Is that it? Just 3,000? In Los Angeles?
I guess the issue has pretty much fizzled out, even in the hispanic community.
This year there were between 5,000 and 6,000 hispanics that gathered for a rally in Dallas (Just Dallas not Fort Worth), down from 500,000 a year ago.
Since the elections are over and the Republlican party has pretty much destroyed itself, they see no reason to trade amnesty for the hispanic vote. Republicans are lucky to have the podunk vote at this point.

The more they protest the more Americans are awakened to the problem and realize that they need to be deported enmasse. Anti-illegal immigration organizations experienced a great surge of new memberships after the May 1st protests last year. They need to protest and march right back over the border. Instead of giving us a day without an illegal alien, they should really "punish" us by giving us a lifetime without an illegal alien.

I disagree with Fraginal - ALL illegal immigrants need to be deported and they have no right whatsoever to be demonstrating and protesting in our country.
Also, it seems to me that 3,000 is a very small number compared to the numbers that showed up last year to demonstrate. I like that.

They don't want rights.....they just want everyone to turn a blind eye and let them do whatever they want. They don't want to go about it legally, they don't want to pay a fine, they don't want to have to do anything except have a magic wand waved over them and "poof" you're legal. I realize it's not easy to come up with those fees, especially if you're trying to live AND send money back home....but the free ride has to end. I don't really care what they want anymore.

i think ICE should have been there or the Minutemen and rounded all their illegal buts off to jail and then deported everyone of them. it really gets me when lawbreakers like this actually get to protest. have the police open fire.

Illegal Immigrant Workers on regular status must be granted citizenships but those that are only contractual in nature must be deported to Mexico.

We should march them right back to Mexico.
