Chicago immigration rally organizers draw support from several groups

Organizers say collaboration among groups representing the city's Arab, Asian, black, eastern European and Hispanic communities has resulted in a demonstration that could bring out as many as half a (M) million people.

Thanks for the pings. So this is where the action is today. So far, things have been quiet here; traffic flowed smoothly this morning, better than usual. Heh heh. However, street closures have just begun in Los Angeles.

KABC is doing on-scene reports this hour. Haven't heard of any school walk-outs.

Poll to FReep: Do you support the activities organized for the 'Day Without Immigrants'?

P.S. I'll be boycotting Ralphs Market/Kroger from now on.
