Latinos met at the Phoenix Public Library this evening to discuss the fact that the Supreme Court will decide upon Arizona’s SB1070 law, one which allows police officers to pull over those “suspected” of being illegal immigrants. There was screaming and crying within the discussion.
“The 1992 Los Angeles riots will be nothing compared to what we will do,” said Nuestros Reconquistos President Manual Longoria. “This is a declaration of war on Latinos!” Pablo Flores of the Aztlánian Brotherhood agreed. However, many of the Latinos at the meeting suggested a more peaceful solution.
“We want America to take us seriously. Rioting will only give all Latinos a bad image,” said Cecilia Maldonado of Chicanos Unidos Arizona. Her statement was followed by loud applause.
What do you think will happen if the Supreme Court upholds SB1070? Will there be a lot of rioting?
