>Hello everybody:
>
>We're asking that activists from all over Southern
>California come out this Saturday to help monitor and
>demonstrate against the SOS/Minuteman supporters that
>are harrassing the day laborers in Lake Forest.
>
>Although between 20 and 30 SOS/Minuteman types came
>out last Saturday, the day laborers were better
>organized and more assertive in defending their
>rights. Some of their families came out in support.
>
>In addition to this, several Lake Forest residents,
>including a number of young teenagers, told the crowd
>of SOS/Minuteman that had assembled to quit bugging
>the day laborers and go home.
>
>Activists also kept a close eye on the behavior of
>Orange County Sheriff's Deputies who patrolled the
>area to ensure they did not trample on the First
>Amendment rights of the day laborers.
>
>At a prior demonstration, Sheriff's Deputies allegedly
>threatened day laborers and supporters with arrest for
>engaging in constitutionally protected activities.
>That didn't happen last Saturday.
>
>In fact, Sheriff's Deputies appeared to have been
>irked by the fact that SOS/Minuteman supporters kept
>calling them up via cellphone asking them to come out
>to protect them from non-existent threats.
>
>We're expecting the same number of SOS/Minuteman to be

>appreciated. The more people the better.
