not the right time and place, they should've done it tomorrow.

like everyone else, they should have enjoyed this holiday with their families instead of being a disruption.

I understand. It just bothers me to see keyboard warriors be so brazen about their opinions. Something inside of me says "atleast there trying," while most people would just judge them. If we, out of all people, can't understand what it's like to be losing it all and not being able to rest. How could we ever hope that the Citizens of the US see our struggle? See what I'm saying? Those people have not even an ounce of peace, that on a holiday, they are fighting for the right to stay in the country they love. Let's not be so fast to judge them.

They are not trying for anything my dude. They are being hired to sabotage the whole Dream Act with Border Security. In fact they want no DA to pass at all. I am telling you either they were hired or they are all top leaders of big immigrant "organizations" who are all citizens and permanent residents. They want no DA because they want their donations to keep flowing in. The real people who are trying are those who are advocating in D.C. for a BIPARTISAN compromise. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is no place to protest anything. Breitbart and other losers will use this as a weapon against us and you know what I won't even blame them for that. I can literally do more than those losers by making calls to Senators and asking them to demand DA in the spending bill. That's how you make a difference. Not by going out and trying to become famous at the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade ruining Thanksgiving for little kids and families. The majority of Americans already see our struggle. There is GOP support. All that is needed is us to make calls to pressure Congress to include DA fix in the Spending bill. We can't demand a "Clean Bill." It just won't happen.

I see your point. Just have a little compassion, that's all. Happy Thanksgiving!

I agree, this is upsetting. We are all in the same situation, I’m angry, frustrated, stressed, etc too, but I’m not going to sit in the middle of a parade to get my point across. Especially at an innocent event. But I will call my congressman, email, tweet, text, spread the word and have my friends spread the word to get my point across.

I would not be surprised if it were UWD or one of their more louder and obnoxious counterparts.

Any info would be appreciated.

Funny how some of you guys brought their 5-star rating down on FB.

While I am against that stupid organization that shut down Pelosis press conference, I have always been ok with a clean DA bill as a starting point for compromise. That organization and many activists out there are completely against a compromise. They have said that they would be against a compromise that includes wall money, enforcement measures or even border security. That stance to me seems really stupid. It’s almost like those organizations want us to stay illegal for their own benefit.
