I did notice on the TV news last nite a hell of alot more U.S. flags in the marches, a far cry from last week where it was a sea of Mexican flags ... good move by the organizers. I have no bones about flags, but when you are out making a point to the government in granting you amnesty for citizenship I think the U.S. flag being flown is a lot more appropriate and certainly makes more sense ... it looks as if the organizers of these rallies thought so too.

I must say I am impressed with the showout to these marches ... it shows passion, it shows leadership in the ranks ... and it certainly is making an impression, my hat goes off for them, even though I have some concerns about their cause ... off topic here but a while ago I posted a thread regarding the Peace Marches and the lack of people making a stand and showing up to these marches ... I attributed it to apathy in people making a stand ... some catters attributed it to the media wouldn't broadcast it ... well, the media is reacting to these immigration marches that's for sure and for better or for worse these marches will make a difference to these people. I just wish the middle class would get off their asses and make a such a stand against the war in Iraq ... but it's easier to sit and whine I guess.
