Have the protesters protested the Mexican military's own border crossings into the US? Or are they A-OK with all things Mexican?

They are against the US. The US military. The US sovereignty. The US citizens.

But we had quality people

Well, there you go. If you can't get quantity...go for quality. :)

"“You're always disappointed when you don't get a million people for a protest. But we had quality people,” she said. "


Mexican drug dealers and rapists are "quality people"?
Who knew?

But we had quality people,” she said.

Only the elite invading criminals.

Never a big net when you need one.

It's always the Leftists at these events who resort to physical intimidation and violence. Maybe we should start calling the Democratic party the Party of Peace.

There they go flying that buzzard flag again.... *rolls eyes*

"Racists, go home!" the protesters chanted."

They're not racists, and they ARE home. I could scream from frustration.

I dare these protesters to shout "racists, go home" at our National Guard. Then, I pray it's caught on camera and shown on the Nightly News. Some people could use another wake up call.

The rally also drew a counterprotest by members of the Minuteman Project, the controversial citizen border patrol, who clustered along Camino de la Plaza, an avenue bordering the park. The two groups took verbal jabs at each other throughout the afternoon.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Why is the Minutemen Project called "controversial" and the other group left unlabeled? (Of course I know the answer, but this garden-variety press bias just bugs the hell out of me.)

A man dressed in a Ku Klux Klan outfit showed up on the Minutemen side,

I've got 10 bucks that says this guy was a plant from the illegal's camp.

You call the National Guard for a state of emergency, not this,” said Ajamu Edmonson, a community activist from San Diego. “It's a last resort.”



I'd say we are getting close to our last resort.

“You're always disappointed when you don't get a million people for a protest. But we had quality people,” she said.

I'll take the "quality" of the Minutemen over the criminals any day

[King Prout]

I just *love* the way the media reflexively labels patriots like the Minutemen "controversial" while sparing the "organizers" and "protestors" the same label.

the media reveal, with their every spineless utterance, that they are nothing other than anti-American asshats.

How long before this turns violent? hours? days?

Rally Point: Larsen Park 455 Sycamore Rd San Ysidro, CA San Ysidro, CA

1:00 PM Rally

6/3 San Ysidro, CA: Western Regional Protest and March!

Prof. Elva Salinas/619-962-2132 Jazmin Morelos/619-274-0894

WHAT: Western Regional Rally June 3rd 1:00pm at Larsen Park 455 Sycamore Rd San Ysidro, CA against the deployment of 6,000 National Guards to the U.S.-Mexico border region.

This is an act of intimidation and violence. Immigration shall continue until the real problem is addressed. Militarization of the border will only increase the number of humans whose rights continue to be violated and die along that region. We make a call to our community, to the communities in the Western Region, and to all oppressed communities to organize and oppose these fascist tactics- We say NO to the militarization of the border! No to the Racist Minutemen! No to the Racist Legislations! No to guest-worker programs! Aqui estamos y no nos vamos!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Oppressed communities? I thought they were the majority there. I guess if there is one evil whitey left in the entire State of California they will be "oppressed." What a load of bs.

[Tzimisce]

The Minute Men are "controversial".

The border protesters are not.

More nonbiased reporting from the MSM.
