Immigration protesters block Los Angeles street
Kansas City Star ^ | May 7, 2010 | Kansas city star

Posted on 05/08/2010 10:29:50 AM PDT by AuntB

Unidentified immigrant rights activists and community leaders engage in non-violent civil disobedience, by chaining themselves together with lockdown PVC devices, in protest of Arizona's recently enacted SB1070 immigration enforcement law, outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Federal Processing and Detention Center, on Thursday, May 6, 2010, in Los Angeles.

They are demanding no more enforcement...no detentions. They had to be dragged away by the police.

I saw this story on our local news. Instead of a 'tea party', they held a 'pity party'.

From another article:

Los Angeles police have arrested more than a dozen protesters who chained themselves together on a downtown street to protest Arizona's new immigration law.

Protest spokesman Nelson Motto says 14 activists locked themselves in a circle Thursday afternoon and lay down in front of federal immigration detention center, blocking traffic for about four hours.

Dozens of helmeted officers surrounded the demonstrators before declaring an unlawful assembly and making arrests. No injuries were reported.

City attorney spokesman John Franklin says the 14 demonstrators will be charged with interfering with police work and failure to disperse.

The demonstrators oppose Arizona's new law and say illegal immigrants now in the U.S should be legalized.

I guess these poor morons are unaware that California can’t do anything about Arizona law. Of course, it’s pretty obvious they have no respect for the law so why would they know anything about how it works. Just demand free stuff and eventually someone give it to you.

Oh if I were in charge- use a cattle prod to get them on their feet then march them to Mexico. If some are U.S. citizens or citizens of other countries- oh well they shouldn’t have been involved. Deposit them all in Mexico and let Mexico sort it out. All chained together like that it would be hard for them to get away.

Check each of them for possible illegal status.

Just because they do not appear to be Mex. does not guarantee they are all citizens.

Probably at least one illegal in the bunch.
Determine and deport.

It is time for everyone who supports the AZ law to begin wearing a BP hat or similar device.
Deport ALL illegals, regardless of where they originate, no exceptions, that does include Cubans.

Not before kicking each of the males in the N#$s.

Then use an ax to chop the PVC devices. Try to aim exactly in the center of the tube, but you know how difficult it is to aim an ax accurately when you've never used one before. It takes some practice.

Sprinkle itching powder on them and then just leave them there for a week or so. Give them water for $10.00 a sip.

I'd give them free beer since it moves through the kidneys faster. You beat me with the itching powder idea, though.

The wearing of a BP cap is a great idea.

I wonder how many of the Patriot groups who are planning rallies could be interested in that?

Get permission from BP to use their Logo with a “TEA Party” logo for the Sept 12 TEA Party rallies.

I’m still mystified why African-Americans participate in these protest
(and vote for pro-illegal politicians)...
then they complain they can’t find jobs.

Because there are some African Americans who get their information from the Lamestream Media, just as some whites do. And it’s wrong (like Jeremiah Wrong).

They may well be illegal aliens....there are plenty of Somalian, Haitian, etc. black illegal aliens.

No need to seek permission from the BP, they no longer exist, having been folded into “ICE”.

SO BP caps are obsolete, but readily recognized by illegals.

Since the Fed. refuses to carry out it’s BP duties, the citizens have the right to do so.
