Pro-immigration rally in Seattle (Vanity as I'm watching it from office window)
4/10/2006 | Proud_USA_Republican

Posted on 04/10/2006 6:01:34 PM PDT by Proud_USA_Republican

Had to work late so I'm now stuck here. Watching the protest from the 25th floor of my office tower. Its gathering right down in front of the street I'm on. Traffic is blocked from all directions heading into downtown.

I estimate about 10000 to 15000. Overall majority are holding up mexican flags, not american flags.

Oh well, guess I'll go get a drink at the bar down the street. It would take over an hour to get out of the city now. I'm sure the commie MSM media in Seattle tomorrow will show pictures of the few ones waving american flags. I already seen enough to know the majority are waving mexican flags.

We all bailed out at 3:30. I would have liked to stay and ridicule the protesters, but I have somewhere to go tonight and didn't want to get stuck.

You can watch the action from the bar at the Met. :-)

That is ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION "rally"...more properly identified as a socialist-hosted anarchy in the streets of America. I do believe there are a few in Washington that know how bad they look, how they have let America down, what they have done to America, and what they have to do to fix it.

A few. The others don't give a flying ^&%$.

I'll be over at the wild ginger. I'd have to try to walk through ground zero to get to the met. No way.

update:

Just saw some american flags being held upside down and a huge banner underneath saying "Latino liberation movement"

Another big sign says, "Full rights for immigrants".

Lots of Argentine flags coming by as well.

But as of now, over 90% mexican flags waving.

I'm sorry that you got hung up, but at least my car is safe for a few more hours from the thieves and vandals ;'}

How nice. NWCN is commenting on the American flags at the beginning of their article, but you've got to read way down in their article to see Mexican and Latin American flags.

We must work very near each other, if not the same building.

All I have to say when looking at this rally is:

12 million illegals in the whole US my A$$!!!! Try double or triple the number.

Thats it, I'm out of here. I've seen enough of this garbage.

I'm off to drink as I've watched enough of my country being flushed down the crapper.

Just like I said. The MSM will show pictures of the few waving american flags.

I can see most of the rally from my vantage point. Its a sea of red, white, and green flags.

I just saw a woman pushing her kid in a shopping cart!!!!

What we have here is a failure to communicate!

There is no problem with immigration, but there is a big problem with illegal aliens who think that they are immagrants.

What we have here is proof of the invasion of our country and the traitorious behavior of the left supporting this illegal activity.

Every news report I heard today on the radio from liberal KABC to conservative KRLA made mention of ALL the American flags being displayed during today's tantrum.

I never heard any mention of any other flags being carried in any of the reports I heard.

The mere mention of that "fact" in their reports seemed odd and way out of place........it was just tossed out there without any reason other than the obvious one.
