The forum seemed tailor-made for Ted Hayes, the Los Angeles activist for the homeless who has become one of the nation's most visible African Americans raising a ruckus about illegal immigration.
A mostly black crowd had gathered at Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in South Los Angeles for a feisty debate about illegal immigration's effects on the African American community. When Minister Tony Muhammad of the Nation of Islam and others called for black-brown unity, they drew boos and yells of dissent.
"Illegal immigration is wrong! They have no business being in this country!" shouted one audience member, drawing thunderous applause.

In Chicago we have folks like Santita Jackson, (Jesse Jacksons daughter) Who has a microphone and is stringing the African American SHEEPLE down the socialist path.
Let's face it. It is ALL to apparrent that there is no love between the Hispanic community and the African American Community and it is all being painted as a smoke screen by opportunist like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.
Hasn't the African American Community had enough?
WHY won't some grass roots people emerge and help their own people see what is happening to all the civil rights they worked for.
Kudos to Ted Hayes for his fine efforts! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEEN-YzyaVE

The problem for Ted Hayes is that while blacks have no sympathies with the illegals (after all, what one group in America do you think suffers the MOST from II - blacks!), they are also led by the nose by their liberal, Dimocrat-suckling “leaders” who tell them what to think and how to vote. If you’re a black guy who aligned with the Minutemen (good group, btw), then you just got off the activism bus, as far as black “community leaders” are concerned.
Welfare and other socialist programs. Shut them off and the opposition to illegal aliens will reach an overwhelming summit. As long as there are legals and illegals who'll work and pay in taxes to foot the bill for those unwilling to work, there won't be any opposition....create a policy, such as "you must have worked twenty consecutive quarters to receive any social services benefits" and illegals will be forced from jobs and sent home.
It took Western Civilization 1000s of years to get to the point where it is now and it's still evolving so for the people to follow the philosophy that we're Africans living in America puts us at a similar level as Africans living in Africa.
This the same dude that Maxine Waters had arrested in her office back in the summer and then begged him not to tell anyone about it?
THATS HIM!!
