#1 "We're concerned about the constitutionality of certain actions, but we're still researching, and we'll see," Munoz said. "Whether you have your documents or not, the Constitution protects everyone."

Ah, yes, the Constitution protects EVERYONE...WTF? Especially those illegals that BREAK THE LAW and want an attorney present? When will we say FU to these groups?

#2 stop the Border Patrol from doing their jobs? Sure, let's get all the legislators on the record whether they support the border security or not... remember, this is an election year. Arrest and deport every illegal alien they find, dammit!

#3 MALDEF has three attorneys, two paralegals and several interns researching the constitutionality of the Border Patrol arrests, said Martin Munoz, vice president of public policy.

Uhhh, I don't see where it says in the Constitution that illegal aliens can't be arrested and deported.

#4 The Constitution protects CITIZENS of the United States, you ACLU dumbasses.

Do you need to go back to third grade in order to understand the concept of nations and governments? Incredible.

#5 

(U of Wisconsin)

Members of the ACLU examine evidence they think will free an illegal immigrant. Ramona Ripston, left, said, "I have to do some pillow talk to check my procedure."

Ms. Ripston's pillow talk refers to her husband, Stephen Reinhardt, judge on the US 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

#6 The very mention of Ramona, Stephen and "pillow talk" creates a visual that might ruin my weekend.

#8 There actually may be a little sanity, here.
Some years ago, the INS and local police decided to do a "crackdown" on illegal aliens in Chandler, AZ. What resulted was an amazing and offensive cluster f***. It was like the police and INS had *no* training!
INS agents were stopping people on the street demanding IDs (often three or four times from the same person in an hour), chasing suspects *through* other people's houses--guns drawn, entering small businesses with some Hispanic employees (like fast food restaurants), and putting workers and patrons on the floor, again at gunpoint, until they could check IDs.
Stopping cars on the streets in residential neighborhoods, and profiling "suspects" based on making them talk to hear an accent and their "smell" and clothes.

In other words, the city was reduced to a martial law-type chaos led by uniformed nuts with guns. Everybody felt menaced and a $25M dollar lawsuit was filed.

There are some right ways and some wrong ways to do these things, but I tell you, this sort of made G. Gordon Liddy sound real good.

#9 BigEd: Is the "U of Wisconsin" to acknowledge the picture's source, or is it the caption? The background isn't much like the Library Mall, and I don't see any of the usual pamphleteers.
