mlknchzThousands Rally for Immigrants Across U.S.
ATLANTA - Thousands of demonstrators wearing white T-shirts and waving signs and American flags filled the streets of an immigrant neighborhood Monday for the first of dozens of marches planned in a national day of action billed as a "campaign for immigrants' dignity." The two-mile Atlanta march was in support of immigrant rights nationally as well as in protest of state legislation awaiting Gov. Sonny Perdue's signature. If signed, it would require that adults seeking many state-administered benefits prove they are in the country legally.
STOP RIGHT THERE!
ILLEGAL immigrants, say it with me, ILLEGAL immigrants. I absolutely and categorically REFUSE to let anyone get away with such a blatant piece of intellectual dishonesty. NO-ONE is talking about anything that changes the status of legal immigrants one iota.
The issue being debated is NOT immigration, it is about the problem of illegal immigration.
IMMIGRATION YES, LAW-BREAKING NO.
