"But a strong police presence at these events is what assures they do not spiral out of control,"

Ie- THAT NOTHING CHANGES.

But when the council unanimously awarded management of the center to Catholic Charities of Los Angeles on Jan. 10, the council elected to put the entire fee toward the center's operations costs, Marisa Garcia, an analyst for the Parks, Recreation and Community Service Department said at the meeting.

Easy, pull the money from Catholic Charities and let em run it if they can......on charity!
What a novel idea.

which offers employment assistance to workers who are often not United States citizens,

Can't some enterprising lawyer file a class action suit seeking an injunction and damages because they are actively aiding and abetting illegal activities?

Here is a wacko idea - HOW ABOUT SENDING THE BILL TO THE ILLEGALS VIA THEIR ILLEGAL LABOR LOUNGE?????!!! Why not let the illegals pay for some public services for one? And unless Burbank has a sanctuary policy (localized amnesty) then they should just arrest the illegals and turn them over to the INS and SHAZAM!! the need for new law enforcement disappears!

These people do NOT represent "cheap labor". Although
they may be depressing market wages, their indirect
costs are a huge burden that everyone pays for: crime,
health care, identity theft, insurance rates, etc.

Well I guess this is how we make the point. We protest to the point it gets so expensive to defend the undefendable position of allowing a site to be used to foster illegal labor they are forced to end that practice.

Noone should be paying those costs because it shouldn't be there for illegal aliens anyway. Here is a thought, eliminate the center for illegals and the cost is a non issue.
