I heard it with my own ears time and time again at those demonstrations. How is this "Peaceful" like the news keep saying they were? Also what was up with LA and the rubber bullets getting shot at protesters?

K...A good reason to learn ENGLISH wouldn't you think?
Oh, and Psi, what are those "Wild" stories? Please do tell...you can easily enough go into my questions and list exactly what you are talking about, because right now I can back up every single thing that I have said with either government documents or pictures that I have proving what I said.

Psi, I am not part of the KKK, nor have I ever associated myself with them, but it is obvious that those people protesting fall into one of 2 categories:
1. Didn't actually KNOW what they were protesting for, which means as protesters they are ignorant to the TRUTH of what they were there for.
2. Or, they actually want to do harm to Americans.

You think that I was just flapping...I will back up my remarks with Gov. sites..
If you go here it proves that the majority of the Trucks are from 1993 or older...66%+ in fact.

First hand experiences about Mexican trucks shows what the trucks look like:

As far as drunk Mexicans, I think there have been enough in the news the past 2 months to prove what I said about Mexicans drinking and driving and not obeying the rules of the road.
And as far as Speaking and READING English...well, our illegal visitors which we have in the USA prove that. If they actually DID speak English and started yelling "Kill the Gringos!" in English then Americans would have said enough right there...but they didn't did they? They spoke in Spanish so USA citizens couldn't understand them. Why all the Spanish writing on the signs? Could it be terror threats against AMERICAN CITIZENS?

Oh, and Psi...you also just proved that you were the person who turned my question in for a violation because that question was deleted.

Ladi, I don't need to "Prove" anything. The actions of the illegals and Government documents speak for themselves.

I guess since it didn't turn into a blood bath...it's considered peaceful. They burned a mock military man with Pres. Bush's name on it. They had a trailer that carried a crucified Statue of Liberty and 40 police officers had to surround 2 anti-illegal protesters from getting hurt. They had a caller call the radio show this morning complaining that they didn't have any anti's at the march and they were eager and ready to get it on face to face with them. Even called the DJ a coward for hiding behind the microphone and talking about illegal immigration and not being man enough to come to the rally and say something. So they were ripe and ready here for a fight.....mob rule. Just didn't have people to attack.
I think that's why they had the run in with the police in LA. Ready to rumble and no-one to rumble with so they started throwing rocks and bottles at the police. I was shocked that another protester actually told the truth and said the protesters started it. 15 police officers went to the hospital and I think 12 others.
You don't hear of anti's attacking people or the police or rushing a stage to silence an invited guest who is for open borders. Seems they have a distorted idea of what free speech is. They seem to forget we too have the right to march and protest peacefully. They just never want to allow it and free speech isn't a brawl in the street.

Yep - we took rocks and bottles from those "peaceful demonstrators" at McArthur Park.
And rubber bullets are not shot directly at the crowd, they are fired into the ground and bounce up. These people would not get out of the street and ignored an order (in English & Spanish) to disburse.
They were illegal aliens, breaking the law yet again.

it's not peaceful when they chant kill anyone, the reason the protesters go shot at is because 2 people was fighting. i think the police acted accordingly. if they did not there could have been a big fight. then they would have to get out the gas and real bullets. i saw where that woman was yelling they are marching peacefully, she looked like a man with bumps on her chest. she looked dirty and nasty.

peaceful in the physical sense that they didn't actually hurt/kill anyone. but definitely NOT peaceful in that they are making threats and inciting people to violence.
sad, sad, sad. :(
I went to the demonstration in Kansas City and it was basically like an outdoor church service. Everyone dressed in white, with priests leading people in prayer. Just shows how different people can be, even demonstrating for the same cause on the same day.

I heard that the cops got our of hand AFTER the protesters started acting up! It was probably over kill but the illegal aliens started it! The cops were trying to keep the peace when the illegal alien criminals started to get out of hand. (Criminals because they are breaking our laws by being here.)
However, like usual there will be an investigation. The cops will be found guilty and the illegals will sue and the tax payers will have to shell out more money to a bunch of people that shouldn't even be here!
BTW, wasn't is nice of the illegals to carry lots of Mexican flags. It showed which country they are loyal to!

When a group is not called out like the illegals are not called out. They get away with more and more and the more unchecked they are the more belligerent they become. So the more we treat these people with kid gloves the worse these people who do not belong here in the first place will be. Rubber bullets were fired at them because they threw rocks and bottles at the officers.

Threats of or incitements to violence are not actualy criminal unless they are specific enough or there's a genuine expectation they will be acted upon (respectively).
There was probably no expectation that anyone hearing the chants would actually commit murder - and, indeed, no one was murdered.
Of course, it is illustrative of the much higher tollerance society has for 'hate speach' directed against the 'majority.'

LMAO, that's horrible. I'm against illegal immigration but they;d never suspect be b/c im not a "gringo"
And the police in LA are jackasses. The people in the park didnt know about the warning to leave.
But none of this would have happened if they werent protesting for rights they don't have.

I believe what Jessica4Roger says! It did happen after a group of illegal men started tantalizing the police. While the police shouldnt have pushed news crew, they definitely had the right to enforce restriction towards the illegals.
Plus, holding up Mexican flags............NEWS FLASH...if you support it so much, go the hell back!

Do we need any better reason to not just hand over citizenship to people who, just by being here, are breaking the law?
