About 500,000 protest in downtown LA
At least 500,000 people marched in downtown LA to protest the Sensenbrenner (senate) bill that would recreate the bracero class of indentured semi-illegal immigrants in the USA.
This was a completely fucking huge march. It's really hard to estimate how big it was. Way bigger than any of the anti-war marches even at their peak and with a tremenduous energy.
People were really mad about this. An editorial at LA indymedia explains why at the link below.
This is not going to happen. The right-wingers that want free flow of their money, machinery and armies, but not of people have pushed too far.
