- Millions Take to the Streets in Peaceful, Pro-Immigration Rallies in 100 American Cities
How can we be stealing their [American's] jobs when they don't want to do them?" asked one young demonstrator.

The legislation calling for criminalizing illegal aliens has particularly rankled Hispanics - and by extension, Haitians and others of Caribbean descent - for its stringent, hard line approach to resolving the illegal immigration problem in America.

In addition to cleverly weaving those half-truths and outright lies into the government's case, his subordinates prevented the jury from hearing evidence that would have demolished the credibility of their key witness. They knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila was responsible for smuggling another 752 pounds of marijuana into the United States while the two innocent Border Patrol agents awaited trial.
