AURORA, Colo. (CBS4) Hundreds of protesters gathered in Aurora on Friday evening to march to the ICE detention facility where illegal and undocumented immigrants are being housed. They also removed the U.S. flag, replaced it with a Mexican flag, and spray painted graffiti on a Blue Lives Matter flag before they replaced it flying upside down.
This comes before planned ICE raids in Denver and 10 other cities nationwide.

I’ve said before, I’ll say it again: I hate Mexico and I hate Mexicans. This is tantamount to an act of war.

Trump and the GOP need to put this kind of garbage in campaign commercials. Even Democrat voters don’t want open borders, per polls over the years.

WHY was an invasion allowed to continue unchallenged ??!
Because practically ALL of the established government and a significant portion of the population - including the media, education and cultural establishments - WANTED it to happen.
Because in the end, they want to destroy you and me.

Video footage of this protest would make a great Trump campaign ad, demonstrating what Trump’s opposition stands for.

The protests were
organized by a network called Lights for Liberty, and there was a separated but related event called March to Close the Concentration Camps. Organizers from Lights for Liberty include a New York activist named Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin and a local organizer named Patty Lampman; they were assisted by the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, American Friends Service Committee, multiple chapters of Indivisible, and the ACLU of Colorado, whose representative Ana Temu is quoted in the article. Public officials supporting the protests include Colorado AG Phil Weiser and Congressmen Joe Neguse and Jason Crow.

The Lights for Liberty group was shocked, shocked I tell you, that a bunch of radicals showed up and things got out of hand. The leader cancelled their rally and told all of the why cant we all just get along useful liberal idiots to go home. She couldnt understand how her nice peaceful rally went south. Got a real taste of who the poor downtrodden refugees really are.

Are you kidding? These cockroaches think the whole Southwestern United States is Mexico. God damn Zachary Taylor. The son of a bitch had defeated the Mexican Army, he was in Mexico City and he turned around and left! Should have annexed the damn country then and there and these bastards would be Americans.

On a public relation level this is just plain stupid.
Outside of the liberal bubble American’s want a secure border and they want the illegals deported.
Replacing an American flag with Mexico’s flag does not win them any support.
