The comments are what get me. When I posted the thread and then left the computer, there were about 300-odd comments at the CBS link. Now there are 1,360. These are average folks who get their news from mainstream CBS, Los Angeles no less. You'd think that audience would at least be evenly split.

We've got 20 comments here on Free Republic on this thread. Let's pretend one of them defended the illegal agenda, and say there were 19 of 20. Multiply them -- comments just like ours only much harsher against Obama and illegal immigration -- multiply it 71 times, and you have the number of comments JUST LIKE OURS HERE -- on the comment board of a mainstream CBS Los Angeles news outlet.

And ABC obtusely presents the picture to the laziest viewer that "everybody" in LA (the land of fruits and nuts, after all, who elected these clowns) is a leftist liberal who supports this invasion in the name of "compassion."

When in truth it's a fragmentary tiny nutcase outright racist (La Raza) minority. One thousand three hundred and sixty comments from CBS "sheeple" sound just like us only crazier, ruder, and a LOT madder. "Those clowns" were elected by ghosts, dead people, illegals, harvested, ginned, and suppressed votes. Liberals have to cheat because they are the minority. The majority of Americans hate what liberals stand for. There is a 1360-post-long thread, with its share of hard-core nutcase leftists, stating it on no uncertain terms, right there on CBS.

It's revealing and invisible!

We are sitting on a powder keg and CBS completely misses the story its readers are telling it.

Uh.... No mention of ILLEGAL immigrants?

It is cagily stated in the story as "immigrants who have illegally entered the United States."

You don't want to convey the impression that they're "illegal," you know; that reduces them to objects, things, property. Can't have that. And these people aren't invading in hordes to take advantage of government largess, and planting children here to reunite with later, they are entering the United States in an illegal manner. That's all.

I spit on mainstream liberal bias mediathink. It is contemptible. What is refreshing is that the overwhelming majority of American patriots who spoke their mind on a 1,360-post comment section on a mainstream Los Angeles news outlet, feel pretty much the same.

Typo ... 61 times multiply the comments here to get about the same number of comments LIKE OURS only a lot more aggressive, many of them, on a mainstream Los Angeles news discussion board.

The media presents one stilted picture -- reality presents quite another, of the same "American story."

It gave me hope to read the comments, that there are a lot more of us than the what I was fearing, the takeover of the left. Thank-you.

Why do we never see a headline “Hundreds March in Downtown LA to Support citizen Rights”

The comments at the CBS Los Angeles site for this story -- this morning there are 1,891 of them as of this post -- are OVERWHELMINGLY, and I mean 99.9 percent, just like our comments here.

Except that they are much angrier about this illegal immigration invasion that we FReepers. MUCH angrier.

So I have a hunch that if THOUSANDS, not just hundreds, but THOUSANDS, marched in downtown LA to support citizen rights -- as the vast majority of CBS Los Angeles' viewers apparently would like to do as much as any of us here on Free Republic, there would still never be a headline.

It isn't because there aren't people here in California who would do it. It's because the MSM would ignore it.

Liberals are the minority in America and the majority are getting angrier and spookier, as very clearly exhibited by nearly 2,000 posts in the comments section at this CBS Los Angeles site. The story isn't what's happening in Murietta or what's happening in downtown Los Angeles -- the story is that the majority of Americans THINK THE SAME WAY WE DO ABOUT IT and the MSM blithely goes about reporting the "news" as if those righteously angry, resentful Americans of all colors (read the comments -- many Mexican Americans talking JUST LIKE FREEPERS) were mere dozens. These Americans are very real; what is pure pretend is the MSM's projection that the "hundreds" outnumber THOUSANDS.

CBS Los Angeles and all the rest of the MSM, is sitting on a powder keg while Obama is playing with matches.

Lulu, I am glad! I have been seeing this phenomenon for years at MOST mainstream news sites in the reader comments' sections, where usually about two in three comments (though in this illegal immigration story, the ratio is more like 99 in 100 comments) are as conservative/limited government/angry as FReepers.

This is why I get so annoyed at pessimists and defeatists -- and they are LEGION among conservatives at present -- who whine about how "stupid" most Americans are when evidence and proof are all around us that only about one third, if that, of Americans are that stupid, and the MSM makes it appear as if WE THE MAJORITY are virtually nonexistent.

Take heart, Lulu!! And spread the word!!!

You never see any coverage about who they are (they are largely a covert operation but every once in a while a banner/sign like this one appears. Notice the brownshirt uniforms. They are the enemy.

They are like supported and organized by foreign interests.

Yes, I shall. They think their name is Legion ( as in the demon Jesus confronted that possessed a man), but we will cast them out and drown them out.

Please keep posting examples like this so we can show that they are the Aztlan are the wicked minority.

The only rights an illegal alien has is to leave in one piece.
