Her son said he felt missing a day of school was worthwhile because “what I learned today is that it’s right to fight for your rights — and what you can do about it and how.”

Apparently you didn't learn anything, you dumb little shit.

Debbie McQueen stood across the street from Armory Park holding a sign that said “No to Amnesty.” Someone tossed a couple of water bottles at her and a companion, but neither was hit.

McQueen said, “I’m here as an American citizen, not to protest, but to have my opinion heard as well.”
-----

Good for her.




Among the marchers was Miguel Santos Nunez, 39, from Mexico, who has lived in Tucson five years, working in construction carpentry, while his wife and three children still live in Mexico. His boss gave him the day off to march, he said, and he hopes that the marches "some way or another pressure the legislators."




Immigration status not stated - WHY? ... what are the odds he's illegal?
It's so wonderful that the cheap labor lobby cares for their workers! (sarcasm)

Lou Dobbs was called a racist by a Mexican on his show. The Mexican said America was nothing without the immigrants. Dobbs then asked him what the Mexicans would be without the U.S. This is when the Mexican started ranting about NAFTA but never asnwered the question. Touche! ... Lou Dobbs nailed it. Mexico needs us far far more than we need Mexico. We can get 1 million poor immigrants from any country, but where would they send their migrants if not here?

Let's pass a law: No more than 15% of legal immigration should come from a single country. Abolish all other diversity quotas and keep that one rule. let the mexicans howl; they cant treat US as a dumping ground for their labor pool.

"They are getting $20+/hr but are being paid in cash/no deductions." Which makes them a lot cheaper to employ.

Here's a brilliant idea. ... if its so necessary to do that for illegal aliens, why not abolish the FICA and income tax for ALL workers?

Let's add 'tax evasion' to the list of sins of the current illegal immigration flood.

SCHOOLS ARE NOW THE BREEDING GROUNDS FOR ANTI-AMERICAN PROPAGANDA ...

Carolina and Daniel Villascuesa accompanied their children, Joe and Antoinette Tafoya, both Tucson High students, to the federal courthouse. “I’ve always been a silent advocate,” said Carolina, but after talking to her children about immigration issues, she and her husband decided that they had to join them in the march. Roughly 1,500 of Tucson High Magnet School’s 2,600 students were absent this morning and 200 more walked off campus. At Davis Bilingual Elementary Magnet School, 500 W. St. Mary's Road, the entire faculty of 16 was absent. But with only 30 students at the school, substitutes were able to cover.

I am disgusted by the schools' complicity in these offensive protests, wasting taxpayer money to advocate for a huge further burden on taxpayers. It's sad to think how many children will be ruined by the farce of bilingual education, and the ills of liberal indoctrination at the hands of these PS educator clowns.

The link above, some of you may have seen. But this video, made by some latino needs to be spread around in everybody's email, all over the USA to show what these "protests" really are about. The demonrats had better quit fueling this fire, because it's going to turn into a rebellion that we will win, but will win with lives lost on both sides. Have you noticed all of the signs with Che Guaevara on them? They want civil war to take back their "latino lands" (California, Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico).

I grew up and went to high school in Greeley, Colorado. I think back then our high school was 40 percent Americans of Mexican decent. I never heard of anyone in the school being illegal. Sure there were racial tensions, it was the early 70's and the brown berets were marching and beating up teachers. I have a lot more freinds who are of Mexican decent now, because I learned back then to put racism aside. Most people now are trying really hard to be color blind. Character matters.

The illegal supporters are trying really hard to make this into a racial issue. This is terrible for all of us. I am afraid that these kids that are walking out of school will become racists. Those in the Hispanic community have got to start to stand up to the racists in their own community, before they poison the youth.

This whole issue is about foreigners ilegally coming into our nation. Race has nothing to do with it. I don't care at all where they came from or what race they are, illegals are illegal.

Well, a foreign country is a whole new ballgame. I would be subject to their laws if I were there. But here in America I wouldn't stand idly by. However I would express to their government that I was offended by the burning. Not that much would get done about it but at least I'd be heard.

That sounds good to me.

Good ... but CNN now has Anderson Cooper and is spewing a 'pro-immigrant' slant on it... the noble workers coming to work. fences wont work. yadda yadda yadda.

I hope the right side will win, but dont underestimate the media's complicity and the RINOs spinelessness.

The funny thing is that they *know* Mexico sucks, that's why they're here.

The Mexicans living in Texas before independence wanted noting to do with Mexico either. It was a turd world country even back then. Many of them died defending the Alamo and many were involved in forming the government of the Republic of Texas. These illegal invaders however want to turn Texas back into turd world mexico. Maybe it's time for a 2nd war of Texas independence. These illegals can march and chant and wave signs, but if Texans are forced to march we'll all be carrying rifles.

“We are workers, not criminals” and "We march today, we vote tomorrow."

Brazen, but pretty much sums up why they need to go home.

proposed legislation that would make it a felony for illegal immigrants to be in the United States

I think I know part of the reason that illegals are so afraid of this. All it takes is to put a bounty out on them and every citizen in the country can arrest them.

Heck, in Texas they would be authorized to use deadly force against them since they are committing a felony by just being here.
