This is extremely impressive: "Immigration rights advocates more than 500,000 strong marched in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday, demanding that Congress abandon attempts to make illegal immigration a felony and to build more walls along the border."  According to USA Today, "Saturday's march was among the largest for any cause in recent U.S. history."  Wow.

This is my favorite part:

"Enough is enough of the xenophobic movement," said Norman Martinez, 63, who immigrated from Honduras as a child and marched in Los Angeles. "They are picking on the weakest link in society, which has built this country."

I couldn't agree more.  Take that, immigrant bashers (in Herndon and elsewhere)!
