Crowley, Rangel Among Arrests at Pro-Immigration Rally

Reps. Al Green (D-Texas) Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) and famed civil rights leader John Lewis (D-Ga.) were also arrested after speaking at the rally.

About 200 activists were also arrested as part of the event, according to organizers.

Can we arrest some more Democraps?  That would be nice, then the adults could get some serious work done in Washington.

Dems think getting arrested at protests are like badges of honor.

Why are they protesting? Don't they know that the law is already settled?
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.

I'm disappointed....no frog marching.

I was going to say "Is it his front yard they are using? Does he have exclusive rights to decide who gets to use it? Because last time I checked, those are PUBLIC LANDS, as in the PEOPLE own them, not one crotchety guy who shouts at the neighborhood kids to get off his lawn."

It's part of his "get even" mentality. (Or Valerie Jarret's)

He must live in a very protected bubble, if he doesn't think this isn't hurting his image.

I've been thinking. If these rallies always end in some of the participants being arrested (and they know this beforehand, they put their name on a list to be arrested), why can't the police start arresting the organizers as members of a conspiracy to commit a crime? Even if the crime is disorderly conduct. No one gets arrested at TP rallies... ijs

Look at the mess they left behind.  Yeah, these are the kinds of people we want as citizens.
