Could be because there is a sensing that there is a GROWING BACKLASH against the illegals?

[Freddd]

Police officials could estimate that crowd, but not 1.2 million in D.C. on 9-12...hmmm?

[bajabaja]

Wonder if turnout now correlates with turnout in November?

I drove right through the Civic Center area of L.A. today northbound on US 101 about 2:00PM. I saw 5 or 6 helos in the air above the Civic Center, police cars were situated on the overpasses, but there didn’t seem to be a lot of protesters.

Many went home to Mexico and/or there’s a Dem in the WH. I sort of wish they had done what they did in 2006. That did wonders for their cause ;)

[Parley Baer]

Sounds like a bust to me. This may mean more Hispanics support the Arizona law than one might think and they did not turn out.

[Vision Thing]

They say “Si se puede”, but from the apparent attendance that was as weak as obama’s manliness, we on the Right can reply to them, “I don't think so.”

[Islaminaction]

Thanks for the good news!

[Halgr]

Good News Finally....

Thanks OP

Oh noez...

So many had to hide in the shadows this year...

They should pick another day to do their agitation. We expect their crap on May day. Have to say, that 2006 march was kind of their high water mark. It was impressive to say the least. It also galvanized the opposition to the illegales.

If the AP says 50,000 - my guess it was about 20,000, if that.

In about 3 months we will welcome huge turnouts in Phoenix. Hopefully Phoenix PD will have enough buses standing by.

[NoLibZone]

Also, note that the marches were planned long before Brewer signed the new AZ immigration law.

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

If the economy wasn’t in the tank, heck, if the unemployment rate were even just 5 or 6 per cent there would have been more of these m’fers in the streets. As it is, the bad economy notwithstanding, I think these people realize now is not the time for pushing this. However if the government isn’t going to get serious about enforcing the existing immigration laws and securing the damn border these groups won’t give up.

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Of course it failed because of three solid reasons. Number one, most American Hispanics are loyal, law abiding American citizens and want nothing to do with these Hate America” communist and left-wing protesters and their lock-step allies in the current Democrat Party. Number two, most American Hispanics know that POTUS Obama is living in a failed presidency. And....number three, POTUS Obama has thrown all Hispanics under the bus. There will be no immigration legislation this year courtesy of anti-American POTUS Barack Hussein Obama. At least, most Hispanics get it. Some of Obama’s remaining supporters will go down in flames with him and the Democrat Party!!! Minority folks, whoever they may be, ain’t on Obama’s favored list. The sooner American Blacks realize this, the better off they wil be.

Maybe they heard that Linda Ronstadt might sing.

Police officials estimated about 50,000 demonstrators (including 40,000 media and paid activists from SEIU) marched through downtown Los Angeles to demand immigration reform and to protest Arizona's tough new law against illegal immigrants.

Fix it. When satire and reality become one in the same.
