Hiring of illegal immigrants provokes faceoff in Upland
By Sue Doyle Staff Writer
UPLAND - Holding signs that read "It's un-American to hire illegals," about 20 protesters on Saturday faced 20 others carrying signs with the words "Immigrants support the U.S. economy."

How convoluted our times have become. I rather suspect that our time as a sovereign nation is short indeed.
