      N.J. immigration law sparks protest

      I can't believe an immigrant leader had the audacity to say this:

      "For every immigrant who feels afraid and leaves Riverside, we are going to find an immigrant to volunteer to come live in Riverside," the Rev. Miguel Rivera told the Courier-Post of Cherry Hill for Sunday editions. "Riverside is going to be ours."

      When Americans move to pass laws that properly restrict access to public jobs for example, this is what they can expect. A thug immigrant leader to rile his followers up. I was on the fence.....and was starting to become pro-immigration. But this is the second article I read like this (with similar threats) & I more than a little upset about it.

      Basically, if we don't pass laws that Mexicans approve of, we can count on threats and actions against us from their thug leaders and organization members. And this guy calls himself a Christian leader?????
