Thread: SoCal groups face off over immigration bill (pics)

MIRA LOMA, Calif. Dueling demonstrations today outside a Riverside County high school.

Groups for and against proposed immigration legislation faced off in a noisy but peaceful confrontation.

Officials say 50 members of a group called Save Our State waved American flags and placards in support of a congressional bill that would make illegal immigration a felony across the street from Jurupa Valley High School in Mira Loma.

On the other side of the street, members of Chicano group MEChA waved Mexican flags and a poster saying "Deport Legal Racists" in protest of the bill.

The sheriff's department says about 10 deputies stood in the middle of the street to make sure nothing happened. They say the protests ended without incident.

The History of the rally:

A brave young man named Josh Denhalter is organizing a protest that will take place outside of his school campus to respond to the vicious anti-American hatred spewed by MECHA and pro-illegal alien protesters at a rally on Monday.

He is fed up with their flying of the Mexican flags and their anti-American rhetoric and wants to fight back. He has attempted to organize a rally on campus but has been thwarted by double talking school administrators who are simply attempting to delay and stonewall to get through the week. The school has Spring Break next week and they are hoping things quiet down.

School officials have told him that he cannot have a rally because they fear for student safety. In other words, a predominantly white gathering of students utilizing their first amendment rights to support America, wave American flags and to support anti-illegal immigration legislation might evoke a violent response from the Mechistas. Nevermind the fact that a white student was jumped by some cowardly Mexican students who hurled racial epithets and spat upon him for uttering anti-illegal immigration sentiments at this Mecha rally the previous day.
