IL-Pastor in hunger strike collapses
July 2, 2010
BY CHERYL V. JACKSON Staff Reporter
A Chicago church pastor two weeks into a hunger strike in support of immigration reform fainted Thursday night and was taken to Stroger Hospital. Friends were surrounding the Rev. Jose Landaverde during a prayer circle about 8:30 p.m. in Douglas Park when he collapsed, said the Rev. Emma Lozano. Landaverde, the pastor of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, 3442 W. 26th, is a diabetic, and friends were concerned about the impact of the hunger strike on his condition, Lozano said. "The doctor even said he shouldn't be risking his health for that," she said.

No comment on his action but even if he dies amnesty and inbound family reuniufication is not the answer.
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

No way! Emma Lozano is a 'reverend' now?

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Why by their fruits you shall know them.

Guess the hunger strike didn't get enough attention in the newspaper. He had to fall down and call an ambulance to get his name out again.

Michelle will be proud because the obesity rate went down a fraction of a notch.

I throw a humungeous BULLCRAP flag on that play. As a diabetic myself, and a nurse, there is NO WAY a full-blown diabetic can survive two weeks without eating. If you want to call negative attention to yourself and your cause, make sure you don't announce this sort of thing. Your credibility, dear shamnesty pastor, is zero!

He's a "martyr for the cause".
