For those outside US - who may not get to see US local TV channels might be interested in knowing the (hidden) attitude of anti-immigration rallysts in USA - who demonstrated last week before US parliament (Caiptol bldg) under some Minuteman Group -who use guns to patrol US border while saying they are merely as safekeepers ---to keep out illegal immigrants from Mexico.But what is in their minds? Ofocurse, even medical brain specialists cannot find out that --unless they are telepaths !!But what they want to get across to US lawmakers (who are debating immigration reform bill today) is visible from the banners they carry. The speaker ofcourse has rehearsed his speech and taken out any offending remarks which might make abd press. But what do the general people in his team think.One guy was carrying a small handmade placard "We love legal immigrants."A large number were carrying printed big posters "Immigration stops now."Your guess is as good as mine.UmeshPS: Anothet TV channel (of Australian media moghul Rupert Murdoch) interviewd a rabid Mother's group "Mothers against Illegal Immigrants" ----who put her children's interest ahaead of anyone else's and said that illegal immigrant childen must be kicked out of US schools since they harm her children's interest.Ofcourse, she has eery right to her opinion, but I'm surprised what is the opinion of the big brand name NGOs sitting inside US --like Save The Children, Feed The Children, Human Rights groups , Amnesty Intl have to say. Their silence speaks quite loud to me.
