Thousands Turn Out for Passport Even [ St. Matthew’s Catholic Church Phoenix ]

PHOENIX - In the Border Battle, thousands of people turned up at a valley church Saturday morning to help American-born children of immigrants in Arizona.

About 5,000 people showed up for the event at St. Matthew’s Catholic Church at 2038 W. Van Buren, near 20th Avenue and Van Buren. The crowd was so large that it caused traffic backups in the area.

The League of the United Latin American Citizens was helping families obtain passports for their children, so they could get to Mexico and back without any problems.

The group was only able to help 1,000 children Saturday, but it plans to hold a similar Operation Save the American Children event in the next month or two.

Ah Yes! 20th and Van Buren -— All of West Van Buren nothing but Ho’s, Dopers, Dope Sellers, Illegals, Felons,
and POS’s. Nice area. Went there one time to buy truck parts
felt lucky to get out of there alive.

If these children are “American”, why the heck do they want to go back and forth between the United States and Mexico? Didn’t they parents risk their lives coming across the desert in order to escape from that sewer?

Huh?

Are they getting Mexican or US passports for the kids?

US passports so the kids can get into Mexico and back into the US with parents WHO HAVE NO PAPERS THEMSELVES???

Why do the little ones not get to smuggle along with their role models?

You should have gotten the ‘original’ (it’s really the state produced copy) back in the mail. I just ordered multiple ‘original birth certificate’ copies from my state and then a passport for my 3 month old daughter (the reason I haven’t freeped much in the past 3 months).

There is no moral high-ground here. The individual parishes that are pulling this crap are criminal enterprises.

Anchor baby scam before the heat (Sheriff Joe) comes down. they will be voters next election.

Arizona is the front lines in this war. Type 4 or class 4 war, something like that, seditious infiltration. Secure the border, enforce the law, bring the enablers to justice.

Duncan Hunter will do this, if he gets enough support.

American-born children of immigrants in Arizona

Also, add to previous post, would like to be clear on the wording, immigrant, should mean legal entrance, but so often it is used when illegal alien is the correct term. This is from fox news? They be carrying the water me thinks, if these are indeed babies of illegals.

So, all the people who were there were illegal? Someone should tell Sheriff Joe about the next planned event.

...immigrant, should mean legal entrance...

immigrant is a small subset of 'legal entrance' There are a lot of legal entrants who are not and do not wish to be immigrants i.e. those on tourist, business or student visas.

Sort of ironic, isn’t it? 5,000 people lined up to get passports to travel to Mexico. Because the Mexicans force people to carry papers.

Help Texas watch her borders.
Watch live on 14 cameras and report illegal alien invaders.
Night cams in operation

Does it work? Yes.
Recently caught on cam and reported:
String of illegals running through brush with backpacks
Numerous sightings of boats crossing the river
Numerous vehicles late at night in isolated areas
IMMENSELY satisfying

I used to run at the Burger King on 32nd and McDowell - it wasn’t much better there.

The big question I have to ask is why a church feels it necessary to sponsor such an event when (legal) passport applications can be done at almost any post office.

Is there something special about these passports that they can't get them through a normal (legal) channel?
