Protesters blast Ariz. gov. at Boston meeting
Arizona Daily Star ^

Posted on 07/10/2010 3:24:44 PM PDT by SandRat

Immigrant advocates and their allies are protesting Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer as she attends the National Governors Association meeting in Boston.

A coalition of immigrant groups bused in advocates from around the East Coast for a rally Saturday to protest Arizona's controversial immigration law, recently signed by Brewer.

Protesters in Copley Square said Brewer was a bigot and called for the end of what they said was "racist deportation." They later marched to a hotel where Brewer was attending the annual governors meeting.

The Arizona law, which is facing a U.S. Justice Department challenge, requires police to question people about their immigration status while enforcing other laws if there's reason to suspect someone is in the country illegally.

Brewer has said Arizona had to act because the federal government isn't doing enough border enforcement.

To quote the guy in the white scarf, you know you are over the target area when the ground fire peaks.

Quite telling that these communists had to bus people in from around the East Coast. I would have thought the Hispanic community would be up in arms, to listen to the media anyway.

These protesters represent their communist, treasonous masters, not the community. They should be sent back to their countries.

John and Sam Adams are rolling over in their graves.

Hey, all you useful idiot protestors, protesting even the slightest effort that would save your Republic, you liberty, and way of life, read what we tens of millions out here in fly over land understand and know.

I was hoping folks would get the sarcasm. I’m stuck on the whole NASA thing for a day or so - Until the great Won amazes me with yet another “I can’t believe this” moment.

These people make no rational sense at all. If I drive without my papers, (license, and oh yes, INS.) I am otherwise a hard working American, so how dare they ask me to show one. How dare they stop me. Is it discrimination, after all I look of age to have one, and I am driving a car? If I refuse to show my papers to the tax man, thus don't pa my taxes, I am otherwise hard working, how dare they ask me to show w-2 etc. Makes about as much sense.

This entire country has increasing become a country of 2 sets of laws, at least. One for Citizens who are Caucasian and a different set for all others. THAT is the problem. It applies to border security, immigration, even gun laws.

No, they are not immigration advocates. I am an immigration advocate. These people are criminal advocates.
