"Look For The Union Label" and don't buy it.

I don't do business with the Mafia and I won't do business with unions that act like mobsters and give material support to communists that sek to undermine this country.

These aren't your daddys' unions.

What the heck does this have to do with the rule of law?

Really, a bunch of people what to have a protest, you don't agree with them, why go there and act like a jerk. The minutemen wannabes went there looking to antagonize the protesters.

Rule of Law: You go looking to annoy people, don't go crying when they punch you in the face.

Do you understand that the 'protesters' have First Amendment and Citizenship rights and that the violence was perpetrated by those advocating for ILLEGALS?

Whose side are you on? The Law's or the Lawless?

Just because our cause is right, does not excuse jerky behavior. Just because they act like jerks does not justify our jerky behavior.

Watched the videos on YouTube. Unfortunately, this is par for the course these days. Radical activists supporting the "cause" for illegal immigrants get in your face, use violence, etc. and local law enforcement is too chickens**t to act for fear of riots and lawsuits. .

Jerky....jerks...?
Jeez...a little condescending arent you?

Those pro-LEGAL immigrant groups were doing the exact same thing as their opponents. Using your questionable judgement, ALL people who publicly share their views in rallies are 'jerks'. Does that include national political conventions? Many people realize that they are informed patriots who are putting their views into action instead of whining.
Jerks.....NO! I don't think so.

If the situation was reversed, you and everybody else would be screaming bloodly murder about how these guys crashed your peaceful rally, started provoking everybody, then how they started crying when they got the reaction they wanted.

These guys were looking for trouble, the wanted to provoke a fight, and that's what jerks do.
