..I think you can declare it official--California is lost...
You're about 100 years late on that call...
Living here in the Soviet Republic of Ca., you are right. It is a shame that Americans have waited so long to complain. There are many fine Hispanics legally here and note that many of the protestors were youth, kids that are easily persuaded about ideas without any foundational understanding. Religious liberals love this type of protest because they can look superior to any other spiritual person who doesn't like law breaking. The Church should stand for fair and LEGAL immigration. Socialists and leftists in Mexico see this as the slow invasion of our economy and allows it to take back mucho bucks from the illegals. Instate tuition being free , health crises, public safety crises, educational crises, and lack of tax inputs by the illegals seems not to bother the pushers of this lawbreaking all in the name of some specious civil rights mantra.
