Yes, it does.
I feel just awful. Am I going to Hell?
Illegals lose right to in-state tuition
New law gives BOR power to create exclusive policy
An illegal immigration bill passed Wednesday in the state senate leaves in-state tuition for undocumented students to the discretion of the Board of Regents.
The Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act, sponsored by state Sen. Chip Rogers (R-Woodstock), targets employers who hire illegal immigrants and denies them most state benefits.

"Especially considering, most of them were out of control nut cases."
Why would you want those people to stay? Were or are any of the illegals you know family members?
OMG. What a horrible thought. I take back everything I said.
You've made the best argument I've read on these boards.
The closing of the stores probably sent more legals to the march. "Many" were I will agree. If there were 20 thousand at the march then 4000 would be many even 400 would be many.
That what I was saying about the sponsors of the groups many were Mexican neighborhood organizations.
I would not be surprised that the store owners had been subject to extortion demanding that they close to "support the People". It is a common tactic for these types.
A mass of flag-waving humanity jammed downtown Chicago this afternoon as tens of thousands of protesters rallied at Federal Plaza to demand more humane immigration laws.
Gov. Rod Blagojevich, Mayor Richard Daley and other political figures crowded onto the stage to speak to the crowd.
Noting Chicago was built by new arrivals to this country who simply wanted a share of the American Dream, Daley said, "We are not going to make criminals out of (immigrants). That is not what America has ever stood for."
U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.), a Hispanic, drew cheers as he recognized Irish, Polish, Chinese and African-American rally participants.

No family members.
But my best friend in Florida is from Belize. Here almost 20 years. Overstayed his Visa and illegal for many years.
There is NOTHING for him to go back to. He's a hard worker. Always has a job but has been taken advantage of due to his status.
I can't see the benefit of kicking him out of the USA. He's basically American at this point.
Opposed to illegal immigration- Sandra Gunn of the Federation for American Immigration Reform joins members of the Illinois Minuteman Project on Friday in Chicago's Grant Park to speak in favor a federal bill that would crack down on illegal immigration. Behind Gunn are Rosanna Pulido, state director of the Minutemen, and Mike Madia, a supporter from Schaumburg.
no idea on who was legal or not, how could one know. The forced losing you float may not be all that crazy either.
To me the march came off as more "Well I'm Hispanic and any law that might affect my people is Racist - to heck with what's right and to heck with the old USA".

WASHINGTON - Some 375 gang members have been arrested in 24 states and the District of Columbia over the past two weeks as part of a yearlong operation targeting gangs with criminal immigrant members, the Homeland Security Department said Friday.

In the two-week operation that began Feb. 24, law enforcement arrested 44 gang members in Dallas; 41 in San Diego; 22 in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area; 22 in Miami; and 19 in Raleigh, N.C.
Gang members were arrested in these states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Virginia.
Federal officials have identified 5,000 Mara Salvatrucha gang members in a database, but the number of gang members in the country is unknown, making it difficult to determine the impact the arrests have had on its membership.
* NOTE:
MS13 is one of the most dangerous gangs this country has seen
