Chanting "Illinois is not Arizona," local activists escalated their push for immigration reform today by trying to block the deportation of illegal immigrants from a federal detention center in suburban Broadview, the first of what they vowed would be a campaign of civil disobedience.
After briefly blocking a departing van, two dozen protesters were arrested on disorderly conduct charges as part of a movement energized by Arizona's passage last week of the nation's toughest law against illegal immigrants. The law allows police to single out suspected immigrants and demand proof of legal residence.
The new law -- which critics say will lead to racial profiling but proponents defend as a matter of security -- has sparked a revival of the immigration debate. In Washington, President Barack Obama called the measure "misguided" and Senate leaders have moved the issue back to the top of their agenda.
Frustrated that Obama has not acted on a promise to push for reform, activists in Chicago and elsewhere say they are planning acts of disobedience akin to sit-ins at previously scheduled marches around the country on Saturday, including a march past the White House.
In Chicago, thousands of demonstrators are expected to participate in a pro-reform march through the Loop.
"We have to escalate to another level because they have forced us," said Fabian Morales, one of those arrested and a principal organizer of Saturday's march. "We've tried to do this peacefully and have not been given a peaceful solution. We have to look for another level."

Never look a gift whore in the mouth.
And this indeed is a gift to the Tea Party; it gives them one more issue to demonstrate the fed govt's refusal to obey the people and it disproves the "violent extremist" label.

Once Obama and the Dems get Puerto Rico in as our 51st state, he'll be able to get the votes he needs to win again, and it will help him in the new polls.

Glenn Beck did a show about Puerto Rico and how they are changing the wording of the referendum that will direct more people towards voting for statehood. The Dems want those extra welfare votes.

Is this a stupid question?
A rancher died a few weeks ago at the hands of an illegal immigrant. The federal government refuses to do it's job and protect the borders. Is there legal recourse for the victims of illegals? Can they sue the gov't either individually or class action for refusing to uphold their own laws on border protection?
