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!
This is the demand of the leaders of the Immigrant rights groups that will be protesting on May 1st. How many Americans support total legislation and an end to immigration enforcement? How will the protests come across to the average American?

The fact that they continue to deliberately confuse IMMIGRANTS with illegal aliens while demanding citizenship, is pathetic at best see thread: Jesse Jackson sells out Black Americans: May 1 Chicago

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.
Btw, they are not only marching for legalization, they are marching for other important issues. I am sure most Americans will support the issues they are marching for.

Immigrants have rights. Illegal immigrants do not.
I hope that they march by the millions--demanding their so-called "rights" in our country and I hope that Mr. and Mrs. Obtuse American is glued to their T.V. while millions of illegal aliens march down American streets arrogantly insisting that they, by virtue of their illegal presence in our country, deserve citizenship ahead of those who respect and love this country enough to emigrate legally. If that isn't enough, they DEMAND a halt to law enforcement with regards to immigration law? That's rich.

Gee no kidding, so does far too many latinos masquerading as American government officials. Oh and BTW there is no such thing as "undocumented" immigrants, workers, people, etc. They are illegal aliens in America. Everybody is documented somewhere once they are born, or are present in the countries they enter LEGALLY.
It doesn't justify granting citizenship to those who enter illegallly, have babies and devise other schemes in order to remain here or for the purpose of future chain migration. The fact that many hold dual citizenship merely serves to acknowledge that their race trumps any loyalty they pledged in order to gain US citizenship. It also proves you can't ride two donkeys with one ass.

Bring it on.
It won't be million of illegal immigrants marching down the streets, it will be millions of legal immigrants and american citizens marching down the streets. Don't get it twisted.

If you have a really big ass you can.
Btw, there is such a thing as an undocumented immigrant.
