At least 15 people, including four DACA recipients, have been arrested in Texas during a protest demanding permanent legal status for the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States.
The demonstration, organised by Cosecha a nonviolent immigrants rights movement took place in the city of Austin near the state capitol building on Wednesday.
A group of about 50 people chanted undocumented and unafraid and si se puede (yes you can) as some blocked a street in the state capital, leading to the arrest of 15 people including four beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) programme.

Deport them.
Fish in a barrel...
Fish in a barrel...
How many of those 15 (or more) committed crimes while in this country (in addition to their already illegal presence here)?
Deport!
There is a restaurant that I used to frequent in the Arlington, VA area for breakfast (when I worked in the local area). The staff for breakfast was one shift manager (a gringo), one gringo gal at the cash register, and nine illegals running the whole kitchen. I should note....all were from El Salvador (not Mexico).
This was the only place in the midst of Arlington where you could still get an entire plate for less than $8. Everywhere else....running legally of course, was typically $12 to $15 for breakfast.
There is an overall problem sitting here in that American business is continually trying to figure out a way to cut corners, and using illegal workers is the only way around the minimum wage and benefit gimmicks.
I worked with a guy who needed a massive amount of drywall work to be done. He priced it via the normal/legal methods and then went to guy who was going to use illegals for the work. Thirty-percent less cost...so in the end, he went with the illegals. No social security, no health care, no taxes....this all figures into the 30-percent less scheme.
If we were to cut the 11-million and dismiss them out of the US...overnight, we’d start to notice everything going up in price. Maybe it’s the right thing to do, but there is a price-tag to this whole game-plan.
These people are criminal illegals, and that's all that they are.
Liberal “Portland of Texas” arrested people?!?!?
“Dreamers” arrested?!?!?
IT IS ABOUT GOOD GRAVY TIME!!!!
But it is by no means an excuse to continue to allow these invaders into our nation.
The taxpayer gets screwed over and over again (at both the state and Federal levels). We pay for their anchor babies' education, their health care, subsidize their housing, pay for their ObamaPhones, Food Stamps, and everything else.
Then we have to put up with their incessant crime.
It's true that the government makes everything else expensive because of their tyrannical and socialistic mandates, taxes, regulations, etc.
We will have those with our without the illegals, Trust Me!
We never roll back Socialism, we only retreat to the next defensive line, waiting for the enemy to over run that position so we can retreat again.
What’s the name of the restaurant?
I think I have been there.
Do they serve huevos rancheros?
Their’s was the best ever.
Getting rid of illegals might raise prices in illegal-dependent businesses, but it would lower taxpayer costs, due to not having to pay for their health care and schooling.
A potential increase in prices is not so bad as to justifiy permitting people to disobey the law. Prices would also be decreased if minimum wage laws were disobeyed, but, whatever one thinks of such laws, one should not violate them.
What sort of foreigner thinks he can come to our country and make demands of us?
Between these guys and the muslims, some serious blowback is coming and it’s coming a lot faster than either of those groups are going to be prepared for.
“If we were to cut the 11-million and dismiss them out of the US...overnight, wed start to notice everything going up in price. Maybe its the right thing to do, but there is a price-tag to this whole game-plan.”
Nothing happens in a vacuum. The more you force people to adhere to the rules the more they fight to change rules that don’t work. In the county where I own rental property it is against the law...the law...for me to put on my own roof. Where I can do it for five thousand following the rules costs me between 10-15 thousand. The same is true for plumbing work. In my case there are relatively few landlords and nobody protests these laws and regulations. Clearly they are rent seeking on the part of professionals. Also, the cost to the professional is huge because he has to pay exorbitant “fees” for the privilege of having a business and employing people.
The regulatory burdens; insurance requirements, pay requirements, medical benefit requirements, just get more and more. As Lincoln said, “The best way to change a bad law is to rigorously enforce it.”
“... demanding permanent legal status for the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States”
I see them using that fake number again. Can you spot it? The left wing media has been using that same 11 million number since 2001. The real number is closer to 35 million. The US has been completely overrun by the worlds flotsom, not including the millions of mooslimb refugees that the UN has been dumping on our shores.
When you get half a dozen senators up there and stating for the record that they are voting for this bill only because they have been assured that it would never become law then there’s something wrong to begin with.
I stopped reading at the “11 million” mark. Pfft!
“If we were to cut the 11-million and dismiss them out of the US...overnight, wed start to notice everything going up in price. Maybe its the right thing to do, but there is a price-tag to this whole game-plan.”
Buy American, Hire American! How’d you like it if an illegal took your job so your next door neighbor could benefit from your loss of employment.
