How come we never see these scenes on the news? http://www.alipac.us/article-1188-thread-1-0.html illegal alien riots break out in California during the night! Posted on Tuesday, May 02 @ 08:04:28 UTC by admin VISTA Law officers from around the county raced into Vista on Monday night to help quell what sheriff's officials called a riot, with crowds throwing rocks and bottles at deputies. Authorities estimated 800 to 1,200 people swarming the streets after a rally to protest the proposed federal immigration bill had broken up at Wildwood Park on East Vista Way at Escondido Avenue. Topics: Riots, first night of new protests, illegal immigration, aliens, police, gas, dogs, crimes, Americans By Pauline Repard UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER May 1, 2006 Nearly 200 officers poured into town in the hours after Vista deputies radioed for help about 8 p.m. Officers dressed in riot gear, and with police dogs, were starting to order crowds to disperse about 11 p.m. Deputies had been monitoring the park rally, then reported that people were throwing bottles at them, sheriff's Capt. Glenn Revell said. He said deputies retreated and were not injured. Revell said crowds split into three groups, some staying near Wildwood Park, while others congregated along Melrose Drive. Others sat down and blocked the intersection at North Santa Fe Avenue and Bobier Street until officers converged to break up the crowd. Some 200 people walked up and down Santa Fe Avenue from Bobier Drive to Vista Village Drive. About 10:30 p.m., 40 to 50 police cars lined Santa Fe Avenue. Many officers wore helmets and padding. It's not supposed to be a riot, it's supposed to be peaceful, said Adrian Olivos, 21, of Vista. I don't know why there is all the commotion. It was spontaneous, said Christina Colt, 19, of Vista. People were waving the Mexican and American flags. They all just came together, and out of nowhere cops just started pouring in, and canines. Near Wildwood Park, a mob swarmed two television trucks, throwing rocks and trying to overturn them. The Sheriff's Department is not placing blame on the demonstrators, Revell said. We believe this is a very small group of people who are making this protest for criminal behavior. Councilman Frank Lopez said the park rally had been peaceful but loud. It was calm, people were enjoying themselves, Lopez said. He added that later in the evening, he could hear young people racing up and down the streets in trucks, waving flags and yelling. I saw a lot of officers go by soon after that, Lopez said. Sheriff's officials requested mutual aid from law agencies around the county. Five Carlsbad officers headed to Vista about 8:30 p.m. About 9 p.m., the California Highway Patrol sent eight officers from its El Cajon-area office. A short time later, 20 San Diego police officers started racing, lights and sirens on, toward Vista. Escondido sent 19 officers and Oceanside sent nine. They came from as far away as Coronado and La Mesa, which each sent three officers, while El Cajon sent five, National City six and Chula Vista 11. Many officers came with patrol dogs, forming lines in the street. Some officers reported no scenes of violence as the evening wore on, but that disturbances popped up in different parts of town. Mayor Morris Vance said the Wildwood Park cultural event featured a lot of music and speakers, but was breaking up in the late afternoon. He knew of no one with permits to march afterward.

shoot the damned bastards.
#2. To: IndieTX (#1) It's pretty bad when the illegals can protest in this country. It's even worse when they attack American citizens and our government does not seem to give a damn! Secure our borders, save our nation! Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest |
