170 people at the meeting.
Not EXACTLY Carl Sagan's "BILLions and BILLions"............

"I cannot believe there are people in there from Danbury sitting and listening to such garbage,'' Lowe said outside. "We have two people like that coming from wealthy towns to cause trouble.''

Neighboring Brewster, NY, one of the most picturesque villages in the area is now looking like a slum after 15 years of illegals congregating there.......looks like Danbury is not willing to let it happen there.

We can't just say you are illegal, you are breaking the law and you are a criminal," Pena said. "It's not that simple."

It is just. That. Simple.

Pinging you!

I think we will see more and more American citizens rise up and fight the illegal alien issues. If our government won't do their job, the citizens will. The Minutemen have been very successful in their efforts and have brought a great deal of attention to the problems as well.

"Illegal immigrants who break the law should not get the privilege of getting a driver's license,'' said Streitz

Amen to that! And that's just ONE "privilege" these CRIMMIGRANTS are being given over hardworking, law abiding citizens.

"As he spoke, Maria Cinta Lowe, executive director of the Hispanic Center of Greater Danbury, rose from her seat in the front row only feet away from Gadiel and angrily told: "You're speaking a lot of garbage. You're not well informed.''"

Typical.

""I cannot believe there are people in there from Danbury sitting and listening to such garbage,'' Lowe said outside. "We have two people like that coming from wealthy towns to cause trouble.''"

I imagine that she does not believe that the hordes of invading illegal aliens are causing any troubles or problems. Only us concerned citizens are the trouble makers.

"We have to give some breaks to the new people. We can't just say you are illegal, you are breaking the law and you are a criminal," Pena said. "It's not that simple."

Is this man advocating for law breakers to be exonerated from the lawful?

It is that simple; if you are here illegally, you have broken the law.

[Just another Joe]

We can't just say you are illegal, you are breaking the law and you are a criminal," Pena said. "It's not that simple."

Yes, it IS that simple.

[Gritty]

What part of "illegal" in the phrase "illegal immigrants" is it that is so hard to understand?

George Bush is sure missing the departing train on this issue. Look for the flailing Dems (and Hillary) to pick up it up and run with it. They won't mean it, but they'll succeed in co opting it and demogogue it to death on their way to regaining political power, leaving the GOP looking like the chumps they are insisting on being!

Bump for the evening crowd.................
