Not sure who exactly you are talking to but not sure that anyone is talking about treating humans like animals. The issue is illegal aliens not legal immigrants. There is a huge difference! Not sure anyone here has an issue with people immigrating here from other countries if they do it the right way. What I personally have a problem with is the constant flow of illegal immigrants that come to this country and expect to have rights which they have not earned. If they go through the proper channels to become a US citizen, then more power to them.
On a side note, did anyone ever hear if the walk out really had any effect at on the overall economy? Didn't really hear anything more about it after that day.

Re: Latinos march for immigrant rights
I think what he is trying to say is that we all (most) came here "Illegally" at some point since we came in and pushed the Native American's out. Kind of a moot point at this point since it was so long ago...and we have changed so much since then.
Also, I would bet there are more people in this country who immigrated legally then were a part of the first "Illegal" wave in the 1700's. I am only 3rd born generation...and my great grandparents were legal immigrants...so I am legal.

CNN reported the next week that shoplifting in California was down something like 48% during the day of the protest. Can't find the link, but it was a legitimate news report...
