Phoenix: Immigration Protesters Protest Their Label
Immigration Protesters Protest Their Label

Some protesters at the center of Phoenix's immigration debate say they have been unfairly labeled by the news media.
The protesters, who have been trying to shut down a day labor center in north Phoenix, say they would prefer to be called pro-American instead of anti-illegal immigration.
Craig Tillman said he doesn't really care. ``Pro-American? Yes, I am pro-American. Anti-illegal? I am anti-illegal. So you can use both statements for me."
But, he added, ``We are pro-American. This is my country and I welcome anybody in my country through the front door. But, I will not let someone come in through my back door and start demanding rights on me. The illegal aliens are anti-American because they didn't come in right."
Tillman said he wishes people would stop calling him a racist.
``I'm part Indian and part French, and I know there's black in my family," he said. ``But, everybody's calling me a racist. I'm no racist. I'm just trying to do what's best for my country."
Tillman said he wishes others would join his group.
``All Americans have to stand up for this problem. We have to get off our backsides and start contacting our representatives and doing it legally."
