Title: Immigration - What the Media Won't Show You

These are some pretty interesting pictures of a 2008 Mayday march in Los Angeles. You won't find these pictures in the media.

And yet you found them in the media. If you mean mainstream network TV and print mediums then understand that it is no conspiracy that you didn't see them there. Communist parades are legal yet pretty uninteresting. Curious but not very newsworthy. Now if the govt. started shooting at them? Then its a story.[;)]

This will help the socialists cause for sure.  Nothing like bringing in large groups of illegal people that then demand a portion of the nation's wealth.  I'm pro-immigration, but this is ridiculous:

Do they deport on race or immigration status, I'm confused?

A good model to follow, because the Soviet Union provided opportunity for all and was welcoming to immigration as well as treating minorities with respect.   Idiot.

Obligatory Che picture.  Never mind the fact he ran prison camps for undesirables (gays, foreigner's, and dissendents included.  Wow, that includes this entire group), tortured, and turned crazy enough he was actually kicked out of Cuba. Ignorance knows no racial barrier.

The irony of people buying merchandise with Che's face is wonderful.

Go to Cuba, North Korea, or the old soviet union... spray paint a flag, and display it upside down.  Then you'll see a subtle difference you might be taking for granted.

Also worth noting, why did you come here illegally if everything sucks so bad?  Seems they wanted to be here better, so it must be better than where they came from.  Why, for that matter, do Cubans flee to America or even Mexico whenever they get the chance?  Are these simple logical steps too far fetched?

Fools on a fool parade, no wonder it didn't make the news.  Though, it would serve as wonderful fodder for the xenophobes and probably a point of pride for some other groups.  But, in general, a few hundred idiots being idiots doesn't make the news.

Though I'm not the biggest fan of this specific political ideology (I am not a fan at all), the graphics used are quite colorful and the artwork is very eyecatching. With the exception of defacing the US flag. See, some of the most fun courses I had in college were my art classes.

Great post- I wonder why the INS/ICE doesn't show up there with a big row of busses and start loading up the illegals?[}:)]

I got a kick out of the first picture of the guy holding up the racist "coward" sign--as he is wearing a disguise to conceal his identity. I guess he would be an authority on being a coward.

Looks like pictures for a Rage Against the Machine Concert
