Thread: Open borders mob descends on home of Kansas Secretary of State

As it states in the article, Professor Kobach has 4 young children.

In a scene reminiscent of the SEIU’s siege of a Bank of America executive’s home in 2010, a mob of around 300 open borders protesters from across the country today descended on the home of Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who is also counsel to the Immigration Law Reform Institute and, according to the following tweets from 501(c)3 Sunflower Community Action, the “King of Hate.”

“We found out where he lived and we came to visit him,” says a videographer before being herded back to a line of buses. Others left shoes on Kobach’s front steps to “symbolize all the fatherless families due to deportations” — as if trespassing en masse for the lack of a fence and then making demands wasn’t metaphor enough. It’s unclear if Kobach or his wife or four children were home at the time.


If you didn’t think that the thug-style tactics of “delivering a message” through mob intimidation were the Kansas way, we have news for you: that border’s wide open, and we’re all living in Chicago now.

KWCH 12 Eyewitness News

9:59 p.m. CDT, June 15, 2013
(KANSAS CITY, Kan)—
Hundreds of people protested against a Kansas politician to address his views on immigration reform.

Activists gathered outside Secertary of State Kris Kobach's Kansas City home Saturday. They brought shoes from dads who have been deported to honor Father's Day Sunday.

The protestors left the shoes on Kobach's doorstep.

"I have seen myself in situations where I almost got deported," one protestor told Eyewitness News. "Who will fill these shoes if that happens to me?"

Kobach co-authored Arizona's strict immigration bill. He has not commented on Saturday's protest.

Contrary to popular rhetoric, the majority of Kansans support immigration reform, speakers told hundreds gathered at a town hall meeting in Kansas City, Kan., on Saturday.

The meeting aimed to send a strong message to America, said Sulma Arias, executive director of Sunflower Community Action, one of the organizations that coordinated the event.

“Every time immigration is tied with Kansas, people automatically think of (Kansas Secretary of State) Kris Kobach, who has made a name for himself and a living off of pushing for self-deportation laws at the national level,” Arias said. “We want the country to know that our values as Kansans move us to common-sense reform with a path to citizenship. Kobach does not represent Kansas values.”

Kobach has built a national profile on immigration issues, often serving as the face of tougher policies toward illegal immigration.

Arias said organizers of Saturday’s event also wanted to encourage Sen. Jerry Moran “to stand on the side of protecting a path to citizenship.”

Congress is enmeshed in a battle over comprehensive immigration changes. Senate Democrats are pushing a path to citizenship for about 11 million undocumented immigrants now in the U.S. Meanwhile, the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee plans to vote on two immigration-related bills this month.

The town hall meeting at Trinity United Methodist Church attracted people from across Kansas, Iowa, Colorado and Rhode Island, organizers said.

Afterward, a group went to Kobach’s Wyandotte County home and left about 20 pairs of shoes at his doorstep to symbolize “the void that has been left since the thousands and thousands of parents have been deported since 2008,” said Armando Minjarez, a member of Sunflower Community Action.

A mob of 300 is a "group"?

I think it is called "stalking"

What would of happened if American citizens did this? Trespassing and a court date would be my guess.
