i do see a problem with ILLEGAL immigrants and that is completely different than someone coming here legally. Please understand there IS A BIG DIFFERENCE. one set of people did it the right way while the other set of people did it by breaking laws, and are still breaking laws today

22nd and California is one of the worst areas in Chicago. If anyone goes please stay safe.

Can't be, Condolezza Rice says they're hiding in the shadows.

It's a beautiful sunny crisp day -in the low 40's.

We'll see what kind of turn out they get.

We have cable, with WGN, think it will be on that?

Let's home they just totally tick off more people in the greater Chicago area, and that it will mobilize more Americans to speak out and get involved.

March on criminals, march on....

I guess it is the same people complaining about US involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan who want us to get involved with Tibet and Sudan. Right?
