U.S. Hispanics and Democratic lawmakers furious over Arizona's harsh crackdown
on illegal immigrants expect huge weekend rallies across the United States,
piling pressure on President Barack Obama to overhaul immigration laws in this
election year.
Protest organizers said on Wednesday outrage over the Arizona law -- which
seeks to drive illegal immigrants out of the state bordering Mexico -- has
galvanized Latinos and would translate into a higher turnout for May Day rallies
in more than 70 U.S. cities.
"The marches and demonstrations are going to be far more massive than they
otherwise would have been," said Juan Jose Gutierrez, a Los Angeles rally
organizer who runs an immigration assistance company.
(OK people marching in support of those who are not in our nation in a legal way. Oh my! Yes people have a right to pro test laws but they don't have a right to demand something or say those of us who disagree with them are full of hate as they are doing now. Please tell me where in the rest of the world could souls who aren't legal be able to demand that laws meant for the citizens of that nation should be given to them also.
