After blocking an intersection for more than three hours...

What about the rights of the motorists who were held captive by these idiots? People who wanted nothing more than to drive home after work, or go to a movie, maybe buy groceries for dinner .... why do the rights of the libtards outweigh the rights of the people who actually have jobs and are trying to go about their life?

In Houston the SEIU did the same thing. Our former mayor surrendered to them. Now he wants to be governor so he can do the same thing for Texas.

It takes The Seattle Times 6 paragraphs before it gets around to saying that the “immigration overhaul” that these people are seeking actually means mass-amnesty for illegal aliens.

Why?

Why do liberals always claim the moral high ground? What is moral about invading a population of hard working citizens and demanding free everything and getting it?

School, medical, welfare, wic, food stamps, political clout, and being paid under the table. What a backward thinking bunch, they wouldn’t know “moral” if it bit them on the nose.

Remember in 2006 Mexican Presidential elections when Calderone won vs. the leftist Obrador there were mass demonstrations in the streets for a few weeks. 3rd world uneducated riff-raff cause society trouble and are easily manipulated by the revolutionary tactics of the left.

"...urge an overhaul of the nation's immigration laws. "

The laws don't need to be "overhauled", they just need to be "enforced". Just ask Jan Brewer and Arizona...the illegals are fleeing in droves.

Of course, the Purple Lipped Peacock is suing them...but his intelligence has been waaaayyyyyyy overrated on most fronts.

I’m anxious for them to realize how ineffectual their efforts have been thus far and ramp it up a notch or three.

Maybe burning out a few neighborhoods will get the attention of these evil rulers. Oh wait - those rulers are all dhimmicrats. Now what will they do?

I saw this on last night’s local news. The article says “200 people” at the demonstration, but it certainly didn’t look like 200 in the news video to me.

We need signs in Spanish all along the border “Seattle welcomes you with open arms!”

Also include stands in the desert with maps of how to get there and the home phone numbers and addresses of everyone who voted Seattle as a sanctuary city and those who decided it would be a good idea to boycott AZ.
