Several hundred people marched on the Strip on Saturday evening in support of comprehensive immigration reform and against the newly passed law in Arizona.
The group, made up mostly of Hispanics, began with about 200 people at The Venetian but swelled to more than 400 by the time they reached the Statue of Liberty at New York-New York.
Demonstrators held signs in both English and Spanish, one of which read: Congress Act Now. American flags were waived by the group.

Who is going to hand out the call girl flyers?
I guess they think waving an American flag will make Americans support them. Dream on.
Those people are annoying as hell. I’ve seen them handing pamphlets to families with little kids.
Wow, out of a Las Vegas population of about 553,000 2 to 400 people showed up. Quite a majority wouldn’t you say. What’s that percentage? Less than .01 %?
"The Arizona law discriminates only against immigrants from Mexico," Torres said. "It's only targeting those of Hispanic descent."
Yet another liberal moron WHO HAS NOT READ THE BILL!
Actually, you're being discriminatory, as legal immigrants come from many many nations, including Mexico. What you're implying, however, is that most of the illegal population are Mexicans, and not immigrants, but illegal aliens who have no intention of being part of this nation.
I'm sorry, Mr. Torres, but they're more than welcome to not only keep their opinions to themselves, but to go home too, and fix their own [censored word] up nation.
It's obvious since their last big demonstrations during the Shamesty efforts waving Mexican flags p**sed off so many American citizens and legal immigrants, that their handlers have now instructed them to wave American flags.
We both know they would rather prance around with their 3rd world cesspool Mexican flags. They're not fooling anyone. Their game is over.
As long as they include border control in the list as a top priority, can this be a bad thing?
Seen the same myself. But who the heck would bring little kids to the Strip is beyond me. Not a place for the little ones.
Been there many times. Vegas is great because it’s cheap to fly to and I meet friends from all over the US there. The pamphleteers are annoying as all hell. And of course the Obamunists haven’t read the bill. It’s all about how they feel after all.
You got that right about them being annoying. I just wonder who has to pick all those things up everyday. The ground is covered with them. What a mess.
So engaging in a little guerilla warfare, I just struck up a conversation with my friend, in Spanish, within earshot of everyone, but not looking at them, stating I had heard I.C. E. was ramping up for a major raid of illegals along the strip in the next few days and that they had already deported a large group and it was coming. I did this on a few occasions, at least five or so illegals must have heard this. It was done in such a way as to make it look like a legitimate information leak rather than a ruse. I even saw some guys drop their boxes right there and head out of the area like jackrabbits.
typical lib writing, it “swelled” from 200 to 400.
Hilarious. I coughed up my Jack & Coke all over the keyboard when I read that.
I find it interesting the Torres and Co. don't include other Hispanics from Central and South America who are attempting illegal entry. It's all about their poor Mexican compadres.
Let's ask Torres and Presidente Calderone what they think of the poor migrants being stopped at Mexico's southern border with guns, and much more punitive deportation laws.
What does Torres and Calderone say about those poor people who come from Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, parts south from South America, and cross Mexico's border? How are they treated?
Answer: Pretty shabbily, yet Calderon condemns one of our States for inforcing a State law that simply mirrors Fed law. Notice that in the Calderon/obambi meeting neither say anything about the above?
I want to hear their answers. Of course, it won't happen. The MSM (which is dying thank god) doesn't bother to question the discrepancies. It's all about associate reporters, and full reporters, and editors who have their socialist agenda for decades. Think early '70's when Newsweak and Time magazines were promoting the coming ice age. Now, because of their PC, they ignore and more detrimental element to our way of life.
That said, I also have a problem with Canadians and Europeans who overstay their visas. I don't give one crap where illegals come from, they are breaking our sovereign laws and should be deported once identified, including any Scottish persons, which is my heritage. Kick them all out!
The ultimate solution is put the hammer down on American companies who hire illegal aliens, from what ever country. Arizona started back some years ago, and along with their new laws are experiencing less illegal immigration and less gun fights and less human smuggling. Unfortunately, they still experience "coyote" rapes as seen on the panties hanging on trees on the paths in Cochise County.
I'm not a violent man, but I'm starting to think it may time to shoot the pr**ks on site.
“American flags were waived by the group.”
Waived?
Did you know it’s illegal for foreigners (legal or otherwise) to lead demonstrations or have demonstrations in Mexico?
Yeah, there are hundreds of illegals on the strip every night. They wear fluorescent shirts and hand out cards advertising hookers.
How dare illegals use OUR flag, and in their view AGAINST US, as a propaganda tool. They could give a crap about our flag, for if they did, they’d not sneak in here illegally and steal our jobs and the local/state services funded by we taxpayers.
