"Changing Phoenix police's immigration-enforcement policies will create a climate of fear in Phoenix that could lead to multimillion-dollar lawsuits and even riots, speakers said Thursday at a raucous town hall.

From the audience, supporters of drafting a new policy said police need more freedom to enforce the law and said their voices weren't being heard Thursday night.

About 600 people packed the auditorium at South Mountain High School to address a four-man panel convened by Mayor Phil Gordon to review Operations Order 1.4.

The immigration controversy led to a wild forum that saw several illegal-immigration foes forcibly removed from the auditorium after shouting at the stage. They loudly performed the Pledge of Allegiance during the opening remarks of Mary Rose Wilcox, an event organizer and Maricopa County supervisor.

Members of the mostly Hispanic audience leaped to their feet throughout the evening in support of various comments made by speakers. When protesters began shouting, audience members drowned them out with a chant of "Si, se puede," or "Yes, it is possible."

"They don't want any opposition," said Jim Williams, a supporter of the new policy who was asked to leave. "They're trying to shove this down our throats."

Getting a little scary isn't it?

Don't let Phoenix become the next Watts, the next LA riots," Alex Navidad, an immigration lawyer, said in an impassioned plea to the panel. "That's what's going to happen. A community that's fearful, with loads of police, can only lead to tragedy."





These people have been trying to incite violence for months now. Ever since the amnesty collapsed last June.

You know what? Let them riot. See what it does for their cause when they do.

One riot and this country will turn LIVID. I get livid just thinking about it. The very thought of police negoitating law enforcement with the criminal offenders is beyond reason. They shouldn't even speak to them.

If it was a white american doing this we would be in jail. What gives here. What a crock of crap.

When honest legal Americans cannot address their govt and
illegal foreign nationals and their enablers can

We have a serious problem

How much longer folks until a peaceful solution will be off the
table ?

I hope this doesn't ruffle any feathers but just consider what is
happening in some places

There will be blood spilt before too long. As our government disregard our views and the anti American latino groups contintue to file lawsuits to give these alien invaders hope there will be viloence in the street. That is what our government wants so that while we are busy fighting about his issue and he can direct marshall law on us, he can fulfill his agenda without us even being aware.

You just hit the nail on the head. Bush does want Marshall law.

What do you do when you get a damaged product from a company... you send the defective product back and ask for a refund...

Send them all back... 100% ... 7th grade education and all.. back to their corrupt countries and fix the real problem.. corruption at home

We Americans are cleaning house to include all of our corrupt politicians

It is unfortunate that the "anti-illegal immigration" patriots chose to conduct themselves in such a rude and disruptive manner from the outset. Behavior like that only serves to verify everything the "open borders lobby" wishes the general public to believe about those who oppose their agenda. If these "patriots" had behaved in a civil manner, the only "threat of riots" would have come from those opposing Phoenix Police enforcement of our immigration law!
