Evidentally, we can all take Monday off, due to the plans of pro-immigration Latino activists to shut down all the major U.S. cities. Here's an excerpt from the full article at this link:

http://today.reuters.com/news/articl...id=&cap=&sz=13


"LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Pro-immigration activists say a national boycott and marches planned for May 1 will flood U.S. streets with millions of Latinos to demand amnesty for illegal immigrants and shake the ground under Congress as it debates reform.

Such a massive turnout could make for the largest protests since the civil rights era of the 1960s, though not all Latinos -- nor their leaders -- were comfortable with such militancy, fearing a backlash in Middle America.

"There will be 2 to 3 million people hitting the streets in Los Angeles alone. We're going to close down Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Tucson, Phoenix, Fresno," said Jorge Rodriguez, a union official who helped organize earlier rallies credited with rattling Congress as it debates the issue."


I like to think of myself as a reasonable guy, but this offends me. It takes mega cahones of the arrogant variety to demand amnesty without consequence for illegals.
