The problem: for whatever reason, the powers that be that are suppose to represent We THE PEOPLE, aren't doing it. For whatever the reason is, these illegal invading lawbreaking "shadow" people are being pandered to.

Black Activists Say Immigration Shortcuts Not a Civil Right Issue
Rep. Tom Tancredo: Boycott is a Bust - Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., a longtime opponent of illegal immigration, says the May 1 Latino worker boycott is "a bust” when it comes to changing public opinion in America. Tancredo, appearing on Fox News Channel, said the waving of Mexican flags, the chanting of "Today We March, Tomorrow We Vote,” and the in-your-face flaunting of U.S. immigration law will not win many converts outside of large Latino strongholds. "When the average American looks out on the streets and sees people demanding ‘rights’ ... even though the protesters illegally snuck into our country, it doesn’t play well in Peoria,” Tancredo said. "I don’t think it’s working in favor of the illegals, but I hope they keep it up.”
Thanks Liz for the thread and Stopem for the ping!
JOSE, CAN YOU SEE (on-tap: aliens' uglier agit-prop anthem---disses US laws) by Liz
Their Version: The song takes liberties with Francis Scott Key's original words. For instance, an English translation of parts of the second verse of "Nuestro Himno" reads:
"The time has come to break the chains. Throughout the night they proclaimed, 'We will defend it!' Tell me! Does its starry beauty still wave Above the land of the free, The sacred flag?"
Ominous and Threatening IMHO!

Major groups of local Latinos oppose boycott -But in Northeast Ohio, major Latino groups are presenting a united front. They oppose the controversial strategy and are angry that some groups are encouraging children to skip school. The region will see some demonstrations and forums on what's being billed as "A Day Without Immigrants." Some businesses and factories will close Monday, either in solidarity with the effort or in anticipation of staff shortages. But local Latino organizations most active in the pro-immigrant campaign plan to boycott the boycott.

Rock throwing reported in Santa Ana - The Orange County Register SANTA ANA — Police asked other law enforcement agencies for help this afternoon after a group of 1,500 protesters jammed traffic on Bristol Street near 1st Street and Edinger Avenue and some started to hurls rocks, plastic bottles and marbles at officers. “It’s starting to take a turn for the worse,” Santa Ana police Sgt. Lorenzo Carrillo said. Sixteen officers at the scene were not injured by the thrown objects. Assistance was requested about 6 p.m. As soon as more officers are on the scene, people who don’t leave the area will be arrested, Carrillo said. The aggressive crowd members are different from those who marched downtown earlier today, he said.

In Mexico, boycott of U.S. goods appears to fizzle-MEXICO CITY - Millions of Mexicans stayed home from work Monday to celebrate the May Day holiday and some even marched, but there were few signs of any widespread boycott of American goods in solidarity with immigrants in the United States.Protesters intermittently blocked border bridges in Nuevo Laredo, Matamoros and Reynosa and urged Mexicans to stay home. Those who chose to cross the bridges were met with insults, according to media reports.
