Haven't these idiots learned yet that marching and protesting against our laws only proves what ethnocentric, anti-Americans they are and just increases the rage of law abiding Americans every time they do this? When has their little tantrums ever made a difference in congress either? I guess they are slow learners.

How is a protest march anti-American?...especially since the march has not even taken place and no one, at this point, even knows what the theme of their march is?

I dont know this group but I feel certain that the sensibilities of "law abiding Americans" is not forefront on their agenda while exercising their Constitional right of Free Speech. and furthermore, how can any "law abiding American" be enraged by anyone excercising their Constitutional rights?

Are you not familiar with the past marches and rallies of the pro-illegals? They have all been about protesting our laws and the enforcement of them and in most sane American's minds that agenda is being anti-American. They may be free to protest under the Constitution but the agenda they are marching for is certainly not pro-America.

Let these Idiots march and engage in " Civil Disobedience". That way they can be arrested and enjoy Arizona's summer heat incarcerated and if Illegal they can be deported.

Sounds like a win-win situation. More marchs, Si se puede!!!! They can march every day or twice a day for all I care. All this does is convince more Americans of what a GIANT problem Illegal Aliens have become. So go for it !!!!

so you believe that people who you disagree with, excercising their Constitutional rights is un-American?

how can you judge a future event, and compare it to passed events with no known affilation other than maybe the subject?

how do you know what is their "agenda" even before they have stated it?

and to be accurate, AZ sb1070, is not even law yet; and It ain't my law, nor is it "America's law"...lets be completely clear on that.

Remind me again, do non-citizens have the right to protest in this country?? Because as far as I know, in Europe anyway, it's against the law for non-citizens to participate in any kind of political event, be it a march or protest.

Like the protestors claiming the law will lead to racial profiling, or that law enforcrment will single out Hispanics? Perhaps they should wait before judging a future event.

Sounds like an easy roundup for Sherrif Joe. The illegals sure have a lot of nerve.
