Day labor protest Part 1

Again we had Oregonians for Immigration Reform and the Oregon chapter of the Minutemen protesting an illegal alien day labor site in Cornelius. (this is where you kook liberals and Bush Republicans whine "how do you know that they are illegal?")


Hmmm... what do you suppose those signs mean? (this is from a previous protest in the same spot)

So this was the second week in a row that we did this particular site and so a (hold on, I'm laughing to myself) more (now it's more of a snicker) organized response showed up.

By "organized" I mean pathetic. This lone woman was the only person to stick up for the illegal workers for the first while.


More intelligent discourse from the other side. I'm "number 1" it would seem.

But the important thing that I want to really stress is this:

This is the first picture I took when we arrived at 7am. Notice the presence of illegal alien day laborers...


This is picture 32 part way through the day. There were three laborers still hanging out. (NOTE: They are hiding their faces because they are doing nothing wrong, not because they are illegal aliens... they literally run behind that column when I approach)


And 45 pictures in we have, as indicated by Rick, just one illegal alien day laborer left. Where did the other ones go? Not to work. (picture of the few pick-ups will be in the next post) They realized that there were no jobs to be had here. They could pick up a protest sign (and how many guys aren't anxious to pick up a sign that says "radical woman" on it) or leave.

This is how you shut these places down. Ok, I just watched some of the video clips I took and they are GREAT. I'm going to upload them and they will be the next post. Stay tuned. It may not be until later tonight.
