SOCIALIST/IMMIGRATION RALLY IN NYC

Immigration Rally (NYC Union Square)


The turnout of the Immigration Rally this year at Union Square (NYC) was much higher than last year where the rain may have kept attendance low and without a strong rallying cry that Arizona's New Immigration Enforcement Law has given them this year. The people were also more friendly this year and I did not have any negative 'incidents'.

A large portion of the rally was done in Spanish, and there were more
foreign, and even communist flags, than American. As I have opined
before, this is at the very least bad 'image-wise'. If you are upset
that it may become more difficult for you to get and stay in the
country, you would think that would mean that you like this country. If
you did not, why would you come in the first place, and why would you
be upset if you could not stay. With that in mind, why would you not
wave the American flag. I am not saying that you have to wave the flag
to prove your support, nor that you are forbidden to wave your own, but
I can not understand why people waving flags would not wave both (their
country of origin and the US). There were some people who did just
that, and a few who were waving the American flag exclusively, but they
were vastly outnumbered by the rest. As for the English, how are you
supposed to convince people that they are wrong in what they believe in
if you are using a language they can not understand? You simply can not.

I am not good at estimating crowd size, but I usually give it a try. For
this protest my first thought was 1,500+. I spoke to a cop who guessed
around 2,000 but also said it was relatively small by the park
standards. It did not seem small to me. When the rally turned into a
march (which I did not follow), my guess changed to 2000+. Keep in mind
with these numbers that it is hard to tell exactly who is there for the
rally, who was there because it was a gorgeous day, and who was there
for there own separate rally. I find that with protests of liberal
causes you generally find an amalgamation of a number of different
groups that support each other but are mostly there for their own
cause. This is much more pronounced than with the Tea Party Protests
where you may have a few 'abolish the fed' type people, where here you
have sizable sections of the protest that are from allied groups.

On to some pictures. I will start with two crowd shots so you can make
your own estimate. The images could not be stitched together because to
many moving people would have made it look awful. With that in mind,
just imagine the shots side by side with a slight overlap for the full
crowd shot.





The Socialists/Communist were out in force; not just in number of people but in number of different groups.
















































Here are a few that will make Pelosi cry; accusations of fascism and Swastikas.






There were a lot of people waving signs around. While a few of them were
clearly had made, the vast majority of them were duplicate printed
signs. The Unions were also out in force, and surprising number of
them. These things are part of the consideration for if the protest was
genuine Grassroots or Astroturf.
While those two factors can cut against being genuine Grassroots, I
believe that the majority of the crowd was indeed genuine Grassroots.

My favorites

This man was not part of the Protest, but was a interesting character.


What Liberal protest would be complete without a few pot shots at Israel.





And 9/11 Truthers




Here are some people that might be Arrested if the protest was in Arizona




The place was left pretty dirty.

I will end with the Unions.

What these idiots don't know is that they are being used like the tools they are.

New World Order globalist pukes actually hate their culturally diverse guts just as much or more as they do ours.
