Dallas Protest - National Media are Cowards

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I've watched and read all the national coverage of the Dallas protest from today. All of them say it was a completely violence free, 'peaceful' demonstration.

Well that's a load of shit. The coverage here in Dallas showed a bunch of people hurling bottles at the people who showed up to protest against the march. They had to hustle them out of downtown with a SWAT and police escort.

Since when did throwing bottles = peaceful?

[mookie2001]

how could you watch and read all of the national media coverage??
anyway
if you get 100,000 people doing anything, im sure a hundred of them are going to start throwing something at someone

























plus the media is secular and humanistic

You are misleading nondallas residents; i happened to watch 90% of the dallas coverage from the hours of 12-4, and not once did they show this.

And even if they did, it's not like all 100K of them were chunking bottles.

Tomorrow will be fun to watch.

mookie - I watched CNN, Fox, and MSNBC. It wasn't mentioned.

Can't Be Faded - sorry you missed it, it happened.

Some bottles thrown, no arrests. (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/040906dnmetprotest.1b36165d.html)

Not bad considering the numbers. Could the other side get this kind of turnout?

[mookie2001]

if they banned tucking the front of your shirt in and pink shirts with flipped up collars

I'm still trying to figure out why almost all of the protesters who are for strict reform look like they are all related & from the same trailer park. Seriously, it looks like they are all named Bubba & have stills in their backyards.

How many illegals does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

99,222, the rest are reserved for throwing bottles at protestors. :rolleyes

dumb joke, but the point is, that it would be impossible for all 100k to throw bottles at 22 protestors.

[ChumpDumper]

So how many threw bottles?

I was talking to a migrant that I know. His wife left him last month lol.. (well not funny). Because he didn't want to risk going back. Last time he came up from Mexico he had to pay Coyote. The funny thing this guy is a real migrant worker who would rather live in Mexico and work here 6-7 months in the Spring / Summer.

888

[Oh, Gee!!]

Don't you mean reporting to INS?

In August 2001, two fellas pulled into a 7-Eleven parking lot in Falls Church, Va., in search of fake IDs from the "illegal-alien assistance network" that hung around there. Luis Martinez-Flores, who’d been living here illegally since 1994, took them along to the local DMV, supplied them with a fake address and falsely certified they lived there.

The very next day, the two guys returned with two pals of their own, and used their own brand-new state ID on which the ink was not yet dry to obtain in turn brand-new state ID for their buddies. A couple of weeks later, all four of them used their Virginia ID to board American Airlines Flight 77 at Dulles Airport and plowed it into the Pentagon.

Anybody want to guess from where Luis Martinez-Flores illegally immigrated?

Legal immigration good, illegal immigration bad. Period.

I doubt those anti protest protestors had the right permits anyway

nnn naaa naturally...

making a felon out of anyone in america without their papers is another thing

[Yonivore]

I'm in favor of making a felon out of anyone that employees or assists them too.

What of it?

If you don't want to be a criminal, don't commit a crime.

Name one other country that allows the type of immigration these people are advocating? Quick answer, their ain't one. Hell, even Mexico would have arrested these people and deported them without due process.

[CharlieMac]

I'd love to punch Hilary Clinton in the face after her speech today. "These are our lawn workers?"

These protest are turning into a joke because people dont know what the fuck they are talking about. And it's sad to people from other countries across seas that have been waiting in line for years.

Based on the coverage I saw of the rallies in Dallas, I was pleased with the organization and overall tone of the protest yesterday. I think it shows how powerful a protest can be if the message is positive and well-articulated. Even though I'm sure many of the participants would have had trouble communicating or defending their message if pressed, the organizers did a good job of making sure the few crazies present (as there are in any protest or rally) did not detract from the rally.

I think the protest will have an overall positive impact on National Opinion, and that's something that a rally of 100,000 angry people with Mexican flags yelling about America's hypocracy would not have accomplished.

but in south texas it would be kind of hard to do



its not practical
and america doesnt have an SS

[mookie2001]

Name one other country that allows the type of immigration these people are advocatingI think a very small % of people want borders without restrictions, and less than that even think that its a possibility

and its your vulgar display of leadership that is the leader beyond leaders, george w bush and his grand ol cronies that control 3 branches of the government that have done jackshit about this problem either TRO

I'd be worried about being spray painted....

[implacable44]

What they should have done was send the INS down to dallas yesterday and they could have sooped up about 200,000 illegals and sent them back to Mehico.

How many gtownspurs does it take to subtract 888 from 100,000?

Secure the border then deport them as you find them.
