I just finished traveling 3,400 miles throughout the Southeast and it does appear that there is a new push to roust out a few illegals bu ice for a change but I don't expect it will last past Nov.

chasing illegals that rob you or rape your wife is illegal to.

There is one school of thought within the Hispanic leadership that this boycott shouldn't happen today. I believe they are behind the rumors. WRT the supposed visits to worksites of INS officers i'm not buying it.

whatever works, sometimes you have to try different tactics to find one that works. Lynchings were illegal because they were going after americans.

You are fine with "vigilantes terrorizing illegals" as long as somehow they make sure no citizens are terrorized as well? Make that 2 votes then.

There just seems to be a cosmic symmetry in the concept (real or not) of undocumented law enforcement officers appehending ("terrorizing") undocumented immigrants ...

Hopefully you're still reading replies. "Terrorizing" implies physical violence, not the threat of laws being enforced. It's no worse than dressing a few friends in DEA shirts and entering a college dorm yelling "five-oh" (from Hawaii 5-0, kidspeak for "here come the cops") and listening to all the toilets flush...

Whatever Lawrence

Since the President is bound and determined to give Illegal Aliens here a free pass to citizenship, I will take him at his word.

So far the man hasn't lied.

This is OUR country, and if you want to come here legally, then do so LEGALLY.

And yes.. since you ask, I do support Citizens doing the job the Government refuses to do. Call them Vigilantes if you want, but you know. I live in a state where Vigilanteism (sp) is rooted in it's history.

When the government doesn't do it's job, someone else will.

Like it or not

Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
I been hearin' his name all over the land.

Well, what is a vigilante man?
Tell me, what is a vigilante man?
Has he got a gun and a club in his hand?
Is that is a vigilante man?

Rainy night down in the engine house,
Sleepin' just as still as a mouse,
Man come along an' he chased us out in the rain.
Was that a vigilante man?

Stormy days we passed the time away,
Sleepin' in some good warm place.
Man come along an' we give him a little race.
Was that a vigilante man?

Preacher Casey was just a workin' man,
And he said, "Unite all you working men."
Killed him in the river some strange man.
Was that a vigilante man?

Oh, why does a vigilante man,
Why does a vigilante man
Carry that sawed-off shot-gun in his hand?
Would he shoot his brother and sister down?

I rambled 'round from town to town,
I rambled 'round from town to town,
And they herded us around like a wild herd of cattle.
Was that the vigilante men?

Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
I've heard his name all over this land.

(Woody Guthrie)

millions are deported ever (sic) year

That is not true. Either you are deceived or you are lying. The only way to prove me wrong is for you to post the authoritative source for your wild, unfounded claim that millions are deported each year. Prove it.

In fact, the "vigilantes" could simply be lefties themselves. Wouldn't put it past 'em.

It's easy to start a rumor like that when you've got a network of "cousins".

It is really easy to start rumors amongst a population that is largely illiterate and uneducated. The "I heard from so and so who heard from so and so" rumor generator works well.

"...who also have a cousin (it's always "a cousin") who has seen a chupacabra."

Usually a DRUNK cousin.

"To report suspicious activity to ICE, call 1-866-DHS-2ICE," the statement said.

I wonder how effective that call will be when people see these marches with a target rich environment of ILLEGAL Aliens.
