The truth is many Legal Immigrants support and understand the struggles of the undocumented population. They either have friends, family or know people who are undocumented.
The truth is is that most legal immigrants do not support illegal immigration. The majority bled to come to this country legally and they do not appreciate the fact that these people in this country illegally are demanding citizenship be handed to them on a silver platter.

It's a smoke screen. Organizers figure that they will garner more support if they throw in issues that no person in their right mind could disagree with and it's likely that they will fool a good portion of Americans. But those of us with more than half a brain know that the extraneous issues are no more than red herrings.

They aren't "marching" as usual they are DEMANDING everything but the kitchen sink, none BTW of which they are entitled to. Citizenship is a PRIVILEGE not a RIGHT. Funny you left off the demand for citizenship being granted the Convicted Felon aka Elvira Arellano. It is this very arrogance and sense of entitlement that makes Americans despise and detest illegal aliens. The fact that they have no fear crossing our borders illegally, yet they are too cowardly to overthrow the oligarchies and demand equal rights in their own homelands merely adds fuel to the fire of disgust for their false sense of entitlement in a country they have illegally invaded.
First lets look at who started this protests and what May Day came from. May Day is part of a socialist movement and communist movement. People who break the law on entering this country want rights. They also want living wage etc etc which is another socialist idea. Half the stuff they stand for and protest for are all socialist and communist labor groups.

Looks like they've been doing their homework......instead of marching for thier own interests waving Mexican flags like last time, which garnered nothing but negative press...this time they are including a tangle of American issues in order to get support i.e. positive press.
The fact is, if I were to go to Paris, or Hamburg, or Mexico City and demand the same rights as citizens but going beyond by asking they print every legal document in English, as well as provide English translators at govt expense, and do not dare ask my legal status if I commit a crime, give me and my children access to all that countries welfare benefits (again, in English) and then grant me legal citizenship no questions asked because I demand my rights! What do you think would happen? Why is it only here in the US this is even taken seriously? Why is it that all other countries throughout the world can have sovereignity but the US cannot, indeed to propose it would be 'racist' and 'uncaring'.
Oh, I do see that they want fair wages.........I could have sworn some posters on this board said that the illegals were happy with their subpar wages because they couldn't make even that paltry sum in their home countries. Hmmm?
Undocumented workers and their supporters will take to the streets here May 1 to demand an end to the raids and deportations and for legalization. Protest organizers of the May 1st. Stop the Raids, no more Deportations, Immediate and Unconditional Legalization for All!
The last time there was a similar "protest" march in Phoenix - it backfired - big time - against Illegal Immigrants.
Fact is - many of those LEGAL immigrants are now turning their ILLEGAL countrymen in - Legals are reporting Illegals - resulting in ILLEGALS being detained and deported.

And do you know why they are reporting them? Personal grudges
