This article was linked on Fark with the headline "Rallies across U.S. call for illegal immigrant rights. Rallies for burglar rights, tax evader rights, and drunk driver rights to follow."
That about hits the nail on the head.
Yes, in what may be an oversimplification of the issue, people are protesting because illegal aliens who are not U.S. citizens do not have the same rights of people that are U.S. citizens.
People are upset that the government would want to deny rights and priveleges to illegal aliens, people that are not in the country legally.
That kind of nerve (or maybe it's just stupidity) makes me fear for this country.
The comments thread on Fark makes for interesting reading, as well.
