Immigration rally Batavia, IL (Vanity)

I live in Batavia Illinois just a short distance from Dennis Hastert’s office. I decided to snap a few pictures of the march. I am sure some of my pictures won’t be in the MSM.

They're using public school buses to transport protesters, a fair amount of whom are not even citizens, on a holiday?

Yeah but there wasn't much action at least not from the side I was on. I think MrSilverback and friends may have been on the other side but I didn't get over there.

My guess is that the buses are chartered from a privately-owned company that contracts with school districts to transport students.

If you look, there's no name on the front or back of the buses. Usually it says, Naperville, Wheaton, Aurora, etc. on buses owned by a school board.

Here, there would only be a number on the back, nothing on the front other than "school bus." The name of the school district would be on either side, and the number would be repeated. Does Illinois have permanent license tags on vehicles owned by government? I have to admit, I've never heard of school transportation being farmed out to a private contractor. Those are Thomas Built buses, built not ten miles from where I am sitting.

I am not very good at estimating crowd size but in the area in front of Dennis’s office it looks crowded if there are fifty people. My uneducated guess is between 2K and 2.5K
