Gloria has just betrayed her Cuban roots. I hope the community lets her know.

BS The rallies were planned months ago according to the Los Angeles Times.

"Planning for this year’s march has been in the works for months, police said."

The LA police were expecting 100,000. Just 50,000 showed up it in the city with the largest Hispanic population.

They must be scared.

They used red white and blue instead of the customary red white and green for their rallies this time. Not many black people there. Not many asians either.

A very tight shot on this massive crowd too.

Just saying.

Also, the illegal aliens from Latin America come from countries where it is illegal for a foreinger to participate in political activities (especially demonstrations) in that country.

What do the Mayan & Inca people have to say about Cortez invading their country with a bunch of Spanish speaking people?

The Indian population in the South of Mexico has been trying to get its independence back for years.

"I want to thank the governor of Arizona because she's awakened a sleeping giant,"

The "Sleeping Giant" (of American citizens) isn't as asleep as they may believe.

The "Sleeping Giant" of illegal aliens is considered unwelcome here by 75% of American citizens, and their boasting, refusal to respect America and all things American (English language for one) and ignoring the American Rule of Law is only ticking more of us off each and every day.

It wouldn’t surprise me if many of those that avoid these rallies realize their illegal migration to the U.S. is less than honorable, and self-serving.

It is forbidden, in Mexico, for any foreigner to protest publicly. Jail sentence. How’s that for irony? In the shadows??? Not hardly.

Governor Brewer spoke for all of us here in the United States and it would seem in Great Britain as well.

The sleeping giant is patriotic, taxpaying, hardworking American citizens.

I'm sure the Cuban community appreciates Gloria giving the rest of the nation the impression that Cubans are in league with this predominantly mexican illegal invasion.

I was just reading how many in Chicago school district were absent from school today because of the demonstration.

Isn't today Saturday?

"Today’s Los Angeles news noted they expected 100,000 and only around 40,000 showed up."

The other sixty thousand were too busy smuggling drugs, trafficking in humans, shooting at border agents, murdering Americans, and destroying American property.

But, they send along their warmest regards.

Cortez invaded Mexico. I’m pretty sure he never made it to South America.

Spot on. In fact, one is deported upon completion of their term of incarceration for such an offense. I have friends and family who have worked overseas and they can tell you how much more strict the laws are elsewhere in this world with respect to immigration.

I would rather call 99, not the Chief. If anybody would know where things are “at” it would be 99, not the Chief.

There are that many at least every Saturday shopping in downtown LA.

Just ask the Japanese, Italians, Germans and Russians. We kicked all there buts. Now we did fight the Chinese to a stalemate on their border. But Mexicans and Central Americans present no problem. Can be squashed in a few days.
