Pardon me, but the church isn't to be used for criminal activity. This is the ploy used by terrorists. Law enforcement needs to go in and get this b*tch post-haste and deport her a** ASAP.
You said it best!
She is no terrorist, she is a mother....
She's a mother alright...
Elvira Arellano, who became a national spokeswoman for families facing deportation became a symbol for the state's 400,000 illegal immigrants.
~Liberal rioters here in my city
Humboldt Pk is the singlemost gang territory here
churches and synagogues harbored illegal immigrants and they should also be arrested!
(some religious leaders have said recently they are not bound to follow tough immigration laws they consider immoral-Cardinal Roger Mahony in Los Angeles for startes)
Carlina Tapia-Ruano, a Chicago immigration attorney, said the defiance might make homeland security officials more determined to take action so they aren't viewed as soft on illegal immigration.
"Any attention given to this case makes the next step unpredictable, whether it is by the agency or whether it is by Elvira," said Tapia-Ruano, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
Arellano's supporters say that if agents do try to make an arrest at the church, they want it to be a chaotic scene, much like the 2000 raid in which federal agents seized 6-year-old Elian Gonzalez to return him to his father in Cuba.
If I have to spend 10 or 20 years in jail, I don't care," Arellano insisted
