ALHAMBRA, Calif. Protesters on both sides of the immigration debate faced off peacefully today outside a Home Depot in Alhambra Many undocumented immigrants often wait for work there, and several dozen protesters from the group Save Our State gathered to demonstrate against them.

They were met with a much larger group that opposes policies against illegal immigrants. San Gabriel Neighbors Peace and Justice says the immigrants should be left alone because they are simply seeking honest work.

Save Our State members say they are not against immigrants. Some of them are immigrants themselves. They accused Home Depot support illegal immigrants by allowing undocumented laborers to stand outside their stores.

Home Depot said in a statement it does not support illegal immigration but can't stop workers from standing near its stores.

those vicious, racist animals you encountered may one day be the majority in California.

Those "animals" are human beings! Please lets not act like a bunch of white trash, even when confronted with brown and black trash.

Our wallets are already open far, far too wide. They have plenty of money to initiate and maintain such a program if they would seriously cut waste, fraud, and pork in other areas.

We need statesmen, not politicians, who are willing to do so wth their eye firmly fixed on our constitution and our true national interests and nothing more or less than that.

Whatever we call them, post 91 is my view of what we MUST do with them.

And our wallets are already open far wide enough to have plenty of money to initiate and maintain such a program. OUr reps must seriously cut waste, fraud, and pork in other areas.

In that regard, we need statesmen, not politicians, who are willing to do so wth their eye firmly fixed on our constitution and our true national interests and nothing more or less than that.

Ya know what the sad irony of all this is? If these poor ignorant SOBs actually get their way, and it looks increasingly like they will, they will only succeed in turning a giant swath of the formerly American South West into exactly the kind of miserable hell hole that they are trying to escape. They have no understanding that it's not the land that produces the wealth. It's the superior culture that occupies it. Of course the Marxist leaders of these sheeple will blame the Evil Gringos for sucking all of the wealth out of the area as they are driven out. The cycle will continue into the next chunk of whats left of America. And so on... And so on... And so on... Finally, inevitably, the blood bath will begin. Civil War II.

P.S.

I've lived in Houston Texas for the last eleven years. Last week, when I called my apartment management office, they answered in Spanish and seemed taken aback when I responded in English.

Some video of an event such as this properly edited.. Would make a helluva tool.. not to speak of evidence for law suits..

I'd say sue the cops for just standing there when someone is verbally assaulting. How far does it need to go - does someone need to be injured or killed before they'll do anything? What are we paying taxes for?

You are quite right...why demean animals by comparing them to those vile and addled creatures?
White trash? White trash would have retaliated to the threats and assaults the creatures heaped upon the SOS folks.

Since you are the first to mention skin tones I'd like to point out that white trash were plainly visible there...amidst the flags of Mexico and Che Guevara. I thought it especially odd how, while that hateful horde was screaming about racists, Nazis and the KKK, one Latino accused another standing with the SOS people of being a "race traitor".

But some are now more equal than others - just ask the law enforcement personnel who were there studiously studying their shoe shines.

Did you hear him? Kudos to John and Ken, as usual. They got into who was backing the "insta-mobs" and seemed to indicate it was professor Armando Navarro, not sure which university. They failed to mention all the communist signs.

Wow, Trav, a nasty encounter for sure. Was this narrative your own personal experience at this confrontation, or is it from someone else? In any case, a very bad situation. "Peaceful confrontation" my arse!

There didn't appear to be any good way to give these scum what's coming to them without ending up in the hoosegow yourselves, particularly with the cops very obviously siding with the bad guys. That's the worst part of it, really. A sure sign of a society in decline.

The "New American" magazine had an article just a couple of weeks ago about the immigration nightmare and how it is becoming more and more radicalized. This would appear to be part and parcel of that trend. No good can come of it. If allowed to continue, history makes plain that this will eventually lead to war. The opening shots are not too farin coming, I fear.

Wasn't one of the problems with the Hun that the Romans gave them citizenship if they'd fight in the army so the Hun just moved on in and made themselves at home? Didn't the dilution of Roman Citizenship lead to the "Bread and Circuses" problem and ultimately to the dissolution of the Republic?

Culminating in 212, when Emperor Caracalla issued his decree granting Roman citizenship to all the free people of the Empire. The process had begun by according citizenship to individuals or to outstanding communities who rended services to the state. I think the Germanic tribes of Arminius of the Cherusci two hundred years before were less inclined, however, and Arminius had himself served with a Roman Legion for 6 years, and had been granted Roman citizenship.

I really believe the right guy could come along and get elected Caesar right about now.

I look forward to your votes and financial support. Remember, I come before you to stand behind you. Admission to my rallies will be free; pay at the door.

Sorry I'm late with this acknowledgment, but we just returned from a 5 day trip up north.

God, what a mess! I'm now convinced that the only response these scum can possibly understand is one that answers violence in kind. You swing at me and I'll swing back.

The Alhambra police are no better than the scummy protesters, and they need to be read off, but good. Calls and letters to the Mayor and city Council are in order.

Alhambra is a complete disgrace.

The police are easily co-opted to the Aztlan traitor side, in any city where the number of illegals has reached critical mass. This is the road to Kosovo X 1,000
