I thought that earlier reports were 1,000 folks.

I haven’t turned on the news in 48 hours...family crisis. I don’t suppose the media has been showing ANY images of all those kids who walked out of schools - per KFI radio - carrying and waving Mexican flags?

What “violence”? I didn’t see any “violence”. I saw the riot police walking through the park urging immigrants (legal or otherwise) to move along. Those that didn’t cooperate were given a little added encouragement. But I didn’t see any “violence”.

Spot on, the 2 who needed protection were in Chicago. Good point on the 12 million, I have always felt the real number would be closer to 25 million. I like GWB, and he really gets it on the Islamists. But does someone really get it on Homeland Security, when they are that weak on the enforcement of our border/immigration laws?

We use to have rallies at the Federal Building at Westwood and Wilshire on July 4 every year and often the Mexicans would throw frozen soda pop cans at us from the other side of the street. The LAPD was great - the cops were always so nice to us and when purchasing a 25 cent hot dog many would give a 1 dollar or 5 dollar bill and tell us to keep the change. They knew their money was going to a good cause.

I've read some accounts and seen photos of some of those rallies and what the illegal alien thugs did to you guys. In fact, the rallies that you held and the resulting violence against you - Americans - by the illegal aliens is what first woke me up to the problems caused by the illegal aliens. In my case, your mission was accomplished. You woke me up and forced me to educate myself on the issue. Thank you.

Word is that there was a group of “black blocked” protestors who sought to provoke the police. LAPD gave the order to disperse, and responded to some thrown objects with the ARWEN and some CS which took the sand out of the thugs pretty fast.
So, speculation here, this protest was a mixed group of some ordinary people and the usual troublemakerand that the ANSWER/WCW/WWP goons were at the bottom of the trouble.

"I knew it would turn to violence."

Their numbers were short of impressive, even the MSM had to admit the crowds were thin.

Someone decided on stirring it up to insure more coverage.

(Quote of the day, well, paraphrase of the day: "crowd estimate is one or two, oh, four thousand..."...and my checking account has two or three, oh, six, digits in it.)

If they don’t like the way they are treated when they break the law, send them home! In Mexico, the police shoot first, and ask questions later.

Thanks for your kind reply, but all the thanks goes to Glenn Spencer, founder of Voices of Citizens Together (now American Patrol). He’s been one of the strongest anti immigration voices in California.

I hope the little hijo de puta carrying the upside-down American flag subordinated to the Mexican flag got the snot kicked out of him. Not that I necessarily favor violence, but there are lines you don't cross.
