ANAHEIM – Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game was the latest battlefield in the immigration debate with groups of protesters and counter-protesters turning out just before the event to demonstrate.

As traffic mounted at Angel Stadium Tuesday afternoon, about 20 activists in favor of Arizona’s new anti-illegal immigration law waved Arizona and American flags as they awaited the demonstrators who planned to protest the new law.

You know, if the illegals really want a knock-down, drag-out, they will get one, and they would do well to remember who won the last time. This story, and the Kansas City bomb scare, show they are ready to escalate.

I live in the area and there were military jets that did a number of fly-bys a couple of hours ago. The last one was so low that the house shook, car alarms went off all over the neighborhood, and my poor fraidycat dog is still shaking!

Was that a half time thing?

All the minorities are trying to "escalate", which shows their dear leader is dishing out the firewater, Stimulus brand.

He knows he's screwed the pooch, and his time is short as the de facto dicKtator, and he is desperate to turn the tide.

The NAACP, NBPP, et al are also wanting things to turn around as they can't abide their first black president being a monumental dud.

With the momentum that has built up in the American mainstream, the left will be flailing out at any and everything that stands in their way, including the TEA party movement, FOX News, Rush, Sarah...everything.

Panic is setting in; they thought it was just a knee jerk thing and it would die out...but it's getting stronger by the minute. And, the fools can't see that what they are doing with the threats are just making us more determined to set things straight in America.

After two hundred years of building and enjoying freedom, there is no way that we care going to just surrender to the slave-owner wannabe renegade radical in the White House. He lied and cheated his way in, and needs to be shown the door.

Like they say in the cowboy movies when then Indians aqe attacking..."Don't show fear, it makes them crazy!"

1) Secure the border using state powers
2) Enforce existing laws using state powers
3) Enforce voting laws using state powers [ie purging rolls of dead and felons]

The feds will not ever do it. Not ever. Get states to enforce existing federal laws.

Withhold fed tax receipts to pay for it.

4) rewrite immigration procedures to make them more amenable to legally immigrating in re timeliness.

yes, it’s an afterthought as it should only be done AFTER the first 3

The “pro-(illegal?)immigration” people were allowed to chant and march at the very entrance to the stadium..
