Protesters Swarm Beacon Hill, ‘Livid’ Over Illegal Immigration (Boston, I was there!)
Boston.com ^ | 7/26/14 | Justine Hofherr

An anti-illegal immigration rally on Beacon Hill outside the State House on Saturday, July 26 was teeming with protesters.

While Bree Sison of CBS Boston estimated that the gathering drew hundreds of people, Jeff Kuhner, the host of WRKO’s The Kuhner Report, who organized the rally, put the number closer to 10,000 people.

People carrying signs that said “Deport illegals,” and “Americans before illegals” stood just outside the State House from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Kuhner told Boston.com that he himself is a legal immigrant.

Kuhner came to the United States in the 1990s on a work visa as he worked towards a Ph. D. Still a Canadian citizen, he was issued a green card in 2006. Kuhner said he is currently in the process of becoming a naturalized citizen.

“I’ve never seen any kind of a backlash like this before on any issue ever. People in this state are livid. They feel betrayed by the political elite,” Kuhner said of Gov. Deval Patrick’s decision for Massachusetts to offer shelter to unaccompanied minors.

“Just watched NECN news and NOT A DAMN WORD about the protest!”

That’s par for the course. You can be sure that the politicians knew about it!

“Do you really think its safe to gather every conservative in Boston in one small area?”

I dare say, having grown up in Masshole, there are NO conservatives in Masshole. There are only LOCALS who do not like ANYONE who is NOT a LOCAL

“The GOP in Mass has 14% of the registered voters.”

What percentage do the Dems have?

FWIW, here in Canada, fewer than 2% of the population are members of any political party. We’re overwhelmingly “independent” — and, from what I’ve gleaned on this site, it’s a lot better that way.

You need 10,000 people to protest the Nazi lying scum Bree Sison and shut down CBS Boston. For good. Don’t let them broadcast the leftist lies. Find out where the SOB lives and set up barricades and protestors so the leftist scum Sison doesn’t get a minute of sleep.

We’re at war against the leftists; let’s start acting like it.

Good deal! If Massachusetts is growing tire dog Obama, there aren’t many places that can tolerate his sorry ass.

I think it’s about 40% dem. Most of the independents in Mass are liberals.

“Obama really meant that he wanted not to transform America but to “deconstruct” America according to the Alinsky/Cloward-Piven/Frankfurt School formula.”

I think you have this wrong and the Poster is correct. This poster is almost a hundred years old, only the faces have changes, The EVIL is the same

Deconstructionism:

A term tied very closely to postmodernism, deconstructionism is a challenge to the attempt to establish any ultimate or secure meaning in a text. Basing itself in language analysis, it seeks to "deconstruct" the ideological biases (gender, racial, economic, political, cultural) and traditional assumptions that infect all histories, as well as philosophical and religious "truths." Deconstructionism is based on the premise that much of human history, in trying to understand, and then define, reality has led to various forms of domination - of nature, of people of color, of the poor, of homosexuals, etc. Like postmodernism, deconstructionism finds concrete experience more valid than abstract ideas and, therefore, refutes any attempts to produce a history, or a truth. In other words, the multiplicities and contingencies of human experience necessarily bring knowledge down to the local and specific level, and challenge the tendency to centralize power through the claims of an ultimate truth which must be accepted or obeyed by all.

I don’t Tweet (81 years old and couldn’t get the hang of it),but I’m on Facebook and maybe there is a site there.

The good turnout was very nice to see.

“Deconstructionism:”

Ok, now what does Deconstructionism have to do with Lenin, the OLD communist and Obama his Heir apparent?

Maybe you have been living in Germany too long and their particular pathologies are rubbing off on you,

Or I did not make myself sufficiently clear (I do imply a lot, AND Expect others to have some knowledge of History) in my comment regarding the POSTER

Why must you immediately personalize this?

We really have no argument here, I am only pointing out that the poster is in fact correct, Obama means to socialize the country and the word "transformation" is quite correct as used in the poster and I'm simply pointing out that it has ties to a chain of socialists that run through the Frankfurt school, Cloward and Piven, and Saul Alinsky.

No need to get personal, it's no big deal all around unless you really want to make it so.

Please accept my apologies, I enjoy your comments and have missed you on the Sunday morning show forums.

However I am not a philosopher, I tend more to being a simple farmer and acerbic at times

Philly doesn’t have a news talk radio station. No wonder when Sharia law is creeping in.

See if they have it live streaming. If not, contact the station.

I guess throwing illegal aliens into Boston Harbor is out of the question.
