“The American people are fed up with the hemorrhaging borders, and we want action now. We’re done talking, and we want action,” [Steven] Eichler said before the rally. “The American people just aren’t going to take it any longer. We’re tired of this invasion force occupying America. If you can’t come here legally, get the hell out.”

People from all over Texas and the nation were in attendance Saturday, with some coming from as far away as Montana to voice their support for immigration reform. Many said that they do not support amnesty for undocumented immigrants already here, and some said they are beginning to feel like outsiders in their own country.

The Minuteman Project is “a call to voices seeking a peaceful and respectable resolve to the chaotic neglect by members of our local, state and federal governments charged with applying U.S. immigration law,” according to its Web site. The group has more than 1,000 members, some of whom have taken to patrolling the U.S.-Mexico border.

"You'll be getting away from the....what did you call her?"

The dingbat. Yes, that was the idea. But actually, I will be going to the area I wanted to be in the first place. I just hate moving.

[nicmarlo]

You have to move, too? I know you love your home. Moving is on my top ten of things I don't like doing.

[sweetliberty]

The one I'm moving into has a full basement. No more freaking out every time there's a tornado warning.

[nicmarlo]

That's good, libby. I remember your having to go through some of those times...not fun at all. I don't know how you do that, though I've had people say the same to me about earthquakes in CA. I guess you just "get used to it." But I don't think I could get used to tornados.

I like the sign that reminds the media to stop sugar-coating, and call it by it's true name, ILLEGAL ALIENS...

[La Enchiladita]

LOL. You know how it is when folks are waxing eloquent to the press... (rolling eyes)!!

[La Enchiladita]

Speaking of earthquakes, we are overdue in CA.

[La Enchiladita]

What's that part about the 0.77 seconds? I don't get that.

Are all those results for ONE Lyman Stucky? He sure gets around...

;^]

[nicmarlo]

When was the last one (I mean like over a 5.5)?

[La Enchiladita]

I can't remember... It's been a long spell without anything noticeable in the L.A. area.

They've had more frequent seismic activity up in the Big Bear area and out in the desert, around Yucca Valley... I think the last sizeable one was in the Palm Springs area.

[nicmarlo]

My kids live in LA area, and I grew up with earthquakes and have seen the devastation they can bring...I know it's usually not like that, mostly jolts and mostly scared, as you "never know" when it will end (and they feel like they last forever).

[doug from upland]

That's one Lyman Stucky. A techie will have to explain the time thing.

[janetgreen]

We’re tired of this invasion force occupying America. If you can’t come here legally, get the hell out.

SPEAK UP, PRESIDENT BUSH!

[Syncro]

What's that part about the 0.77 seconds?

That is the internet page bragging on itself because it brought all that stuff to your screen in less than one second.

If Gore only knew what he wrought...LOL

Oh and THANKS for bringing us all the reports. You ROCK BIG TIME!

[La Enchiladita]

Aha, now I know... can you believe it?! Less than one second! I am SOOOOOOOOOO impresssed...zzzzzzz.....

Anyway, thanks! It is fun following the Caravan by phone ... since I'm too much the homebody to go anywhere!

I think the pace of the MMP Caravan would kill me...!!!

500+ was a very good showing... considering the weather was terrible early in the morning. Waco was hit pretty hard. Storm kept people from coming, I have no doubts.
