I saw Mr. Tancredo on several media channels mentioning his parents were LEGAL immigrants from Italy. Tancredo has some great ideas on this topic and should be respected.
You so right. What is a shame is that the SOS group can't seem to be openly discussed here especially with their growing grassroots citizen work and investigative reporting that supports The Minutemen in pro-legal immigration work.

What are you trying to say?

I willing to stand by those officials facts. You, of course, are free to believe what you want.

They're not blind. They know EXACTLY whats going on.
