Contrary to popular opinion, a lot of the people demonstrating on May 1st were actually LEGAL immigrants, here legally, working legally. Some stores had to shut down because their LEGAL immigrant workers walked out.

My source, NPR, stated Cargill was closing down protest Monday because they employ a lot of "undocumented workers"; that's why I referenced Cargill. I do not agree with your premise that lots of LEGAL immigrants support the illegals. From what I hear from Legal immigrants is they followed the rules and so should everybody else. Do you have a source that supports many legal aliens support the illegal aliens? Not trying to be smart, but I don't see how your statement is true.

This thread is abhorrent to the point that I cannot read any further. I am shocked and ashamed that supposed conservatives would say they would vote for an idiot dem over this border issue.

For those of you saying this, you'd better pull your brain out of your posterior and stick it back in your ear or you just might get what you want. If that happens, have mercy on this country. :/

A local IHOP stayed open but lost a lot of their staff -- and they insisted they had checked the status of all their employees.

We know the leaders of many of the movements are legal immigrants, working for amnesty for the illegals.

There are 10s of millions of hispanics that are legal immigrants and actual citizens. Many DON'T support illegal immigrants, but a good number do.

And the ones that do often are talking about friends and family, and feel very motivated to open our borders -- so I have no doubt you could get a half-million legal people out to fight for amnesty.

I shouldn't have really said "popular opinion". But some acted as if all the demonstrators were illegals, and all we had to do was sweep them up and throw them back.
