Powerline has put out a call for as many people as possible to videotape tomorrow’s planned pro-illegal immigrations rallies, which they will then post on their site. We learned a few weekends ago that the MSM will not provide images that tell the whole story. With your camera, you will be able to document the true nature of these protests.
Powerline: Ready. Aim. Shoot!
[...] Tomorrow, pro-illegal immigration demonstrations are planned to take place in around 60 cities. You can find the schedule of events here. If the past is any guide, conventional news coverage of the demonstrations is likely to be unilluminating. We think this is an opportunity for a bit of citizen journalism. Anyone with a video camera (or most digital cameras) can attend one of the demonstrations and record what he sees. How many people are participating in the demonstration? What signs are they carrying? What flags? Who seems to be in charge? If people are arriving in buses, who runs the buses? Are professionally made signs being distributed? If so, by whom? How about flags? How visible are radical groups like A.N.S.W.E.R.?
We’re encouraging our readers, and anyone else who is able, to attend the demonstration in your city and record what you see. Send your videos to us, and we’ll put up a cross-section of interesting footage–assuming, of course, that we get some. It will be interesting to compare the first-hand observations of citizens with cameras to news accounts.
Read their whole post, and I’ll report about the situation as well on Monday’s Tammy Radio. If you don’t have an affiliate in your area, you can now hear Tammy Radio free on the web. Go to Talk Radio Network, click on my pic, and you’re stream options will appear.
And visit Michelle for the best coverage of Sunday’s March of the Illegals, along with a bevy of pics.

I’d sooner let Al Franken give me a tongue bath ; )
Seriously though….you people have at it. I get my fill of seeing these people in just driving across the San Fernando Valley to work every morning.
I didn’t have a camera with me but during my lunch hour I wandered over to check out the rally in Philadelphia. While there was plenty of Mexican flags there also was a number of American flags. But those I think were just the protest organizers wising up to the negative reaction from the marches a couple of weeks ago and not a real love for the country.
There was a speaker but he was talking in spanish I couldn’t understand what was being said since beyond ordering a beer I’m lost. Also I noticed a lot of people from one union, the SEI–Service Employee’s International, working the crowd and holding up signs.
I didn’t stay long since I have to work my legal, tax paying job so I don’t know if things got more interesting or if there were any outrageous signs and such.
