How do you feel when pro illegal glorifies Elvira Arellano ? Join The Great March Honoring Elvira Arellano?

YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO A RECEPTION FOR 7-year Old SAUL ARELLANO

Guest speaker: EMMA LOZANO, Chicago Activist

Saul Arellano, 7 years of age, is the son of Elvira Arellano, who has courageously defied inhumane immigration laws by resisting deportation and taking sanctuary at the Methodist Church in Chicago.

Saul, her son, is a United States citizen, who like 3.2 million other children, faces the forced separation from his mother, an undocumented immigrant. Elvira has taken up the cry of 600,000 other women who are under deportation orders.

Emma Lozano, Director of Pueblo Sin Fronteras, is a Chicago community activist who has taken up the banner of Elvira’s struggle and is coming to Los Angeles to rally greater support.

Date: Thursday, August 31, 2006 Donation: $50.00

!Join The Great March Honoring Elvira Arellano and all other Immigrant Women! September 2nd, 12 Noon, Olympic and Broadway, Los Angeles

Sponsored by the March 25th Coalition

Like many other illegal aliens, and their activists, Arellano takes no responsibility for her predicament. In her opinion, it is the fault of our laws and our government that she had to hide out in a church for the past year. It is the fault of our laws and our government that she knowingly came into this country illegally and then - after being deported - illegally returned and had a son, to ’seal the deal’ so to speak.

Ms. Arellano is misinformed and needs to grow up. Our laws do not separate children from their mothers. She is perfectly able to take her son to Mexico with her. But that is not what she wants to do so she uses her son like a pawn in her twisted game. Make no mistake, Ms. Arellano made some very bad choices in her life and even after hiding for a year, she still refuses to take responsibility for her actions. She knew full well the consequences of her decisions and yet she was willing to bring a child into this world knowing that at any moment the laws of the nation she illegally entered could catch up with her. She has no one to blame but herself.

    Report this to ICE and let them do their job.

    And why are the LAPD up on charges for stopping illegal aliens from protesting on US soil? This is just like the border patrol going to prison for doing their jobs. Enough is enough!

    Enforce the laws and deport these criminals - with their children. Anchor babies are not the responsibility of the US taxpayers. They belong with the illegals that ran across the border to steal from our government and citizens.

    The US Citizens are watching to see if we have turncoats in office. Government agencies are paid for with tax dollars. Do the US Citizens have to stop paying taxes to get the point across?

    Another blatant criminal illegal alien that needs to be arrested and put in jail. This is not the first time she has been in trouble with our country's rules. Send her back to where she came from. She should be arrested the moment she steps out on the street from her church sanctuary. This is a slap in all the the legal citizens faces. Ridiculous.

  • Admittedly, immigration law does not de jure separate parents from their children. However, the legal practice does de facto separate undocumented parents from their citizen children.

    Elvira Arellano is an admirable woman. She is doing whatever she can to ensure a life for her son that is better than he would likely get if he is de facto forcefully deported along with her. This treatment of the citizen children of undocumented parents is unfair for the children; it reduces the chances that they will benefit from their citizenship.

    Harm is often not meant in principle, but that doesn't mean that harm is not implemented in practice. Principles, no matter how good society claims they are, are nothing but worthless when they are not implemented through good practices. Society should not ever ignore social practices that harm the well being of families.

    One more nail in the illegal coffin.

    Everytime they rally/ demand more people dislike them and the movement againt them grows.They sure are one dumb cultural group of people.

    This woman has no standing which makes her case even worse because she as already once been deported.

    Many politicans are waking up also.

    Well said and I applaud you for your grasp of the issue, thank you, I am giving you a star

    PS> Is it not a felon to harbor or in able a fugitive, perhaps ICE needs to arrest her and her driver on the way to Californian

    I totally agree! She needs to be arrested at the Capital, on national TV, in handcuffs being put into the back seat of a government vehicle! Now that's entertainment!

    "courageously defied inhumane immigration laws" EXCUSE ME?

    WHAT A LOAD OF BULL! She is a criminal. She broke the law and must face the consequences of her action. I don't care that she doesn't want to go back to Mexico!

    Makes me ill. I think this would be the ideal time for ICE to come in and haul her butt out of that church.

    Wonder who gets the money from the $50.00 "donation" to this event.

    It's a disgrace you make this a laughing matter. You don't even know the woman, so how can you say she made bad choices, what bad choices? Coming here for a better life, to escape a corrupt government who refused to help its citizens? Yes, so she comes here, that's a bad choice? So what, it has nothing to do with you.
