On a sweltering Saturday in July, approximately ten thousand protesters gathered on the steps of the Massachusetts state legislature and beyond in order to send a message to Gov. Deval Patrick and President Barack Obama: No more illegal immigrants.
“The rally was an obvious sign that even here in ultra-liberal Massachusetts, there is a major political rebellion brewing against the corrupt, arrogant and dangerously disconnected political elites of our country,” said rally organizer Jeff Kuhner in an interview with Worldtribune.com. Mr. Kuhner is the host of WRKO’s morning radio talk show, The Kuhner Report. He is known as “Boston’s Bulldozer” for his brazen defiance of the state’s liberal policies and its politically correct culture.
“Massachusetts has become ground zero in Middle America’s effort to stop the massive invasion of illegal immigration that threatens to bankrupt and destroy America,” he said. “The original revolt against British tyranny began here in Boston. I honestly believe that the revolt against Obama’s tyranny is beginning here.”

The rally was barely over before a controversy erupted in the blogosphere: How many activists were in attendance? A report by CBS’s Bree Sison states that “about a thousand” were present. Instead, The Blaze featured pictures of the event disproving that estimate and a headline highlighting the impressive size of the rally: “Boston ‘Teeming with Protesters’ in Giant Rally Against Housing Illegal Immigrants in the State.”
“The discrepancy in the numbers regarding how many showed up in the rally is a stark example of how the liberal media is trying to marginalize and suppress the extent of the opposition to Gov. Patrick’s plan.

Never seen so many white people in one place.
Interesting. Thanks for the realtime report.
Why does seeing white people disappoint you?
The Dems need a Trojan Horse bill from the House so they can attach the Gang of 8 bill to it during conferencing. It wouldn't surprise me if the GOPe tries to get this done prior to the midterms. The pressure from the GOP's corporate paymasters is enormous along with the Chamber of Commerce. It is already rumored that the CoC will endorse Landrieu in the midterms.
I think you're deliberately being obtuse. It's not that seeing white people disappoints me, it's the fact that in the picture it's ONLY white people. I would like to see ALL American's get together and send a message to the President that we need to take care of ourselves first, we can't have the entire 3rd world on our doorstep and be expected to take care of them.
Thanks for the correction.
Go to a Red Sox,Bruins,Patriots,or Celtics game.99.5 percent white.
Seeing a bunch of Americans protesting for America, in what is conceivably the strongest liberal stronghold, should fill your heart with joy regardless of the color of their skin.
I’m praying that everyone wakes up to what democrats are doing... They’re hurting all of us...black, white, brown... they see us as their servants.
