Rep. Luis Gutierrez and 10 other people demonstrating for immigration reform were arrested Tuesday outside the White House, the U.S. Park Police and a spokesman for the congressman said.

Douglas Rivlin, the press secretary for the Illinois Democrat, said Gutierrez and the other people arrested "were sitting on the sidewalk in front of the White House after being told to leave" the protest, held to mark the more than 1 million people deported since President Barack Obama took office.

"The U.S. Park Police gave them a warning to leave. After the third warning they were put in plastic handcuffs and taken away," Rivlin said.

Park police Sgt. David Schlosser said the 11 people arrested paid a fine for disobeying an official order and were released.

It's starting. Weapon up (even further), patriots.

Massive social disorder from the non-producing, parasitical entitled, robotic class, is coming when they do not get their way and the majority of Americans stand in their way. But they will make a fuss and a mess before they are vanquished. Think Rodney King TIMES THREE (at least).

Sounds like they’re trying to soften us up for another push for Amnesty. I’m not tricked anymore by these stunts.

Didn’t he swear to uphold the Constitution? Isn’t this an impeachable offense for a US Congressman?

Half of Congress falls into this category.

The bullet fodder is already being trained to steal and riot on call. The community organizers are gearing up to phone their Holder People to ‘come and take’, ‘meet and beat’ ... and there are real Americans who are ready to scoot and shoot. SEIU and ACORN community organizers are about to send the fodder to the slaughter just as they’ve been told by the thuggery administration that they ‘orter’.

Thanks tobyhill.
Rep. Luis Gutierrez... Illinois Democrat... and the other people arrested "were sitting on the sidewalk in front of the White House after being told to leave" the protest, held to mark the more than 1 million people deported since President Barack Obama took office.
The million Zero has deported -- which way has he been moving them, into, or out of, the US?

No. But the members of the House can simply vote for expulsion.

"Sounds like they’re trying to soften us up for another push for Amnesty."

Of course, there is another election coming up you know.

Funny how the dems did exactly nothing about this when they had complete control of the government. Now they are being told, "we are fighting for you."

Too bad the gutter slime wasn’t shot. He is the 5th Column that Cicero wrote about.

In viewing the LONG history of the world and various nations and their upheavals (particularly the initial socio-economic birthpangs of class warfare-steeped Marxist-Leninist Revolution when they came to a specific country) where is is chiseled in marble that the United States of America should be any different, and/or exempt?

Mexicans have not assimilated in America. They have grown in separatist and racialist identity (the official slogan of La Raza - 'For Those Inside the Race, everything, for those outside the race, nothing') and have remained in poverty.

If you're a U.S. citizen you must provide ID to drive, cash checks, get on an airplane, etc., and voting should be no different. Zer0 thinks he can select the portions of his oath of office that he wants to adhere to, enforcing our immigration laws is one part he chooses to ignore, securing our border, he chooses to ignore.

It is a sad day for this nation when the POTUS says 'The Democrats and your president are with you,' to a group that is urging him to reward those that have violated our laws.

COSTING US BILLIONS

Academia and the piss-steam media say that immigration of any kind is good for the economy. They insult Californians, Arizonians and other states who are burdened with an influx of poverty, which they are forced to sustain. U.S. taxpayers subsidize illegal immigration and pad the pockets of businesses addicted to cheap labor. Taxpayers at the state and local levels bear the brunt, providing $84 billion in services annually.

Here's the federal expenditures:

Education $2,107,800,000

Medical Emergency medical care $250,000,000
Fraudulent use of Medicaid $1,235,000,000
Medicaid cost of childbirth $1,238,100,000
Medicaid for children $1,626,800,000
Other medical outlays $1,600,000,000

Law enforcement 
State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) compensation $330,000,000
Federal incarceration $678,400,000
Byrne grants $24,300,000
Detention and removal $2,545,000,000
Project safe neighborhoods $39,500,000

Residual ICE functions $2,824,000,000
Exec. office of immigration review $222,500,000
Southwest border prosecution $33,000,000
National guard $642,000,000
Coast Guard $500,000,000

Public assistance Free and reduced meal program $2,264,600,000
Temporary assistance to needy families $1,030,000,000
Housing assistance programs $637,000,000
Child care & development fund $633,000,000
Public Assistance Subtotal $4,564,600,000

TOTAL $28,645,400,000
