Several young activists organized by United We Dream, the nation's largest immigrant youth network, showed up at the congressional office of Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) with cantaloupes on Thursday afternoon to protest King's remarks last week during an interview with Newsmax. King had said many young undocumented immigrants whose parents brought them into the country illegally when they were children - dubbed DREAMers after the DREAM Act, which would have given them legal status and eventual citizenship if Senate Republicans had not shot it down in 2010 - had "calves the size of cantaloupes" from the effort of smuggling drugs into the United States from Mexico.

Lol I'm going to be honest here. Yes, I do want to continue to live in this country but, there are some Americans who are dumb as fuck.

I know we should be on our best behavior but sometimes you just have to get your point across. I love this. I would have been overjoyed to see King's face.

Besides, considering King's history King was going to vote 'no' anyway. So, eh. No harm, no foul. I hereby dub Cantaloupes, the official fruit of the dreamer movement.

Clearly, Dreamers were offended by his comments so the movement had to deliver some good ole' sweet, fruity justice.

You can't get your calves that big by hauling drugs. Maybe with anabolic steroids directly injected into your calves, not carrying weed. UGH!!! Does this guy even lift? Clearly he does not. -____-
