Thread: Tucson, AZ 05/01/08 MAYDAY RALLY DAY

Hey everyone - thanks for coming out today. We had about 250 or so people in the actual march, but many, many more stopped by to show their support and sign the guest list. We filled up the banners for Border Patrol and Col. Bacon, thanks to all of you. Already the mainstream media reports are being forced to include OUR side of the argument in their coverage of the rallies today - and that was the point. Without your efforts today, the open-borders crowd would have had their rally and monopolized the debate yet again. So THANK YOU!

We'll have pictures up soon. Links to local coverage as they pop up:

THURSDAY!

A MARCH AND RALLY IN SUPPORT OF OUR ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION LAWS AND BORDER PATROL

DeAnza Park on Speedway and Stone

Live broadcast from DeAnza 6a-9a

March begins 9am and proceeds to Presidio Park downtown

Rally intention: To show support for:
- Existing and pending laws enforcing the attrition and deportation of Illegal Immigrants
- The efforts of our brave Border Patrol/ Military men and women fighting everyday on the border and elsewhere in world for our freedom!
- Putting up the Border Fence and security measures needed to stop the flow of Illegal Immigrants into these United States
- Allowing our local law enforcement to call Immigration authorities whenever an arrest takes place and suspect is an Illegal Immigrant
- Halting of divisive Ethnic Studies programs in our local schools
- Immigration and Customs Enforcement

- Now is the time for the legal United States citizen taxpayers, and other legal residents of the U.S. to have their voices be heard!


If you have been listening to my show for any length time you know that our city is faced with a serious Illegal Immigration problem. This issue is deeply rooted into the fabric of our community. Too many members of local government, school boards, elected officials etc..feel there is more to lose by offending the Illegal Immigrants in our community than the legal taxpayer. On May 1st when border rights groups like Derechos Humanos plan on taking to the streets in a direct attempt to strip away the very sovereignty of these United States you now have chance to let your voice be heard. This opportunity is for all legal US citizens and legal residents/workers who are tired of having your tax money wasted by the millions on Illegal Immigrants, regardless of race, religion, or political background. There is another voice that needs to be heard! Spread the word!



BREAKING NEWS!

TUSD: No leaving school to attend immigrant rights events

The article only states students can't leave to support the immigrant and workers rights march/rally. So does this mean that it doesn't apply to students who wish to support our Illegal Immigration Laws and Border Patrol? The article is actually wrong because according the message sent home to parents all students should treat the day like a school day. People need to decide for themselves what they want to do. If it were me and my kid was in TUSD I would tell TUSD to take a hike. Sorry guys my kid is sick. This is a joke and TUSD continues to be the laughing stock of our city. TUSD let students plan and walk out in protest of student who got busted for marijuana who was illegal less than a year ago. A few months ago students were allowed to protest math at a TUSD school. Now when faced with not only the Pro-Illegal Immigrant Rally but also the Anti-Illegal Immigrant rally they decide to tell kids to stay in school. I seriously doubt that had it just been the immigrant rights rally they would have called for kids to stay in school. We gave them the excuse to have all the kids stay in school without offending the illegal alien community. You're welcome TUSD, I hope people failed to read the note you sent home. I wonder if it was in English and Spanish?


WHAT CAN YOU DO IF YOU CAN'T MAKE THE RALLY? SPEND THE MORNING CONTACTING THE LOCAL OFFICIALS. LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!


Where does the Tucson City Council stand on illegal immigration? What Rally will they be attending?
