The audio for that protest is telling. You can hear one woman on the tape, when she realizes the kids were American, saying something to the effect of, “Oh my god, those poor kids must be terrified!”

That’s what pisses me off the most about these assholes and their protests. It’s also what scares me the most about the militia yahoos going to “defend the border” in Texas. It would be so easy for these idiots to hurt or intimidate American kids without realizing it because they’ve decided that brown people = illegal.

There are a bunch of kids on the border who are American but don’t speak English because their parents have decided to emphasize Spanish first and then focus on English when their kids start school. Plus, down there damn near everyone speaks both languages. It’s normal. That’s going to make it harder for the gun fuckers to just aim at the brown kids and tell them to go back home.
