Protest just outside my office.// Yakima Washington

This is Grantbo
A few hundred high school kids flanked by police cars just walked by my office. They had no signs, they weren't chanting anything but were all hispanic. I guess they were protesting the immigration thing. :shk:

On Fox just a few minutes ago they were saying that there are also protests in CA, MI and TX right now.

This is Grantbo

It turns out there were 400 kids protesting. The Yakima Herald-Republic reported today: pics of kids waving Mexican flags. One girl's shirt saying 'I'm a Mexican, not a latino, not a hispanic'. And one girl complaining that as an illegal she can't go to college, so why go to high school.

Amazing huh? :rolleyes:
