Illegal Immigrant children to march on Saturday

Children of illegal immigrants will be among hundreds of thousands of protesters marching in Dallas on Saturday in a push for what they call comprehensive immigration reform. They said they want the federal government to help pave a path for them to citizenship and education.

The scheduled mega-march, which will end at Dallas City Hall, aims to urge Texas representatives in Congress to support immigration reform. In 2006 thousands of people gathered on the streets of Dallas for the same cause.

However, the students who plan to participate also have another goal -- to encourage Congress to pass the DREAM Act , which would give undocumented students a chance at higher education. The federal legislation has been proposed before but never made it to a vote.

"I believe that every high school student should have the opportunity to go to college, and that is what we are looking for," high school student Cristhian Dorantes said.

Older students are not the only ones who plan to protest. In fact, children in elementary school will also participate.

"It is a boundary line saying, 'You know what? We have had enough. We need actions,'" elementary school student Rodrigo Mendoza said. "And actions speak louder than words."

But not everyone shares the students' ambitions.

The Fox 4 station did a 6:00 newscast about the coming march, it was a loving portrait, as if it were a Thanksgiving Day Parade or something. They showed the march route and talked to excited vendors and how big the crowd might be (they said maybe 100,000).

Nothing critical at all will be aired on this station about illegals.

Sounds like a great opportunity to deport all the little illegal crumb crunchers, and make the parents go fetch 'em.

Well maybe someone should play like the Pied Piper and lead them all out of town like he did with the rats in the story

Werd.

On another note the 2010 Asian Festival will also be held in downtown Dallas on 5/1.  They are expecting several thousand as well.  If anyone has any need to go to downtown Dallas, through downtown Dallas, or around downtown Dallas tomorrow, I would suggest they rethink that idea.

The immigration rally tomorrow is supposed to bring much less than the 2006 "I ain't working rally," which was about 500K.   As I recall, there really wasn't much crime at the event, but a bunch of kiddos got busted by truant officers.

The stupidity behind this is amazing. But I'll say this, the left is way more organized than the right...

The left are also far more willing to take off from jobs if they have one, and to have their kids miss school. (yeah, tomorrow is Saturday, so that doesn't count)

God knows we can afford to spend even more money and send the kids of illegals to college on the tax payer dime.  :banghead:

Screw it I'm going to move to Mexico, become a citizen then sneak back across the border and get the govt to take care of me.  :mental:
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

If by chance you were to become a Mexican citizen, then you'd be the one that gets deported from the US.

Ha you know what kind of luck I have.  :lmao:

I just think its nuts that you and I and millions of other people work for a living and play by the rules and our govt wants to take from us to give to those who do not play by the rules. If i saw Rod Sterling standing in the corner right now I would not be surprised in the least.

Round them all up as abandoned kids and then arrest the parents when they show up to pick up the politicized li'l brats.
