Invaders want phony 'huelga' to go a full 12 months
San Diego - Invading foreigners and their accomplices apparently want to extend Friday's phony 'huelga' over driver's licenses and the 'Son of 187' referendum for an entire year. They claim invaders need driver's licenses so they can go to work, never mind this it's against the law for them to work in the U.S. at all. -- The 'huelga' (strike in Spanish) was organized by long time Mexican reconquista nuisance Nativo Lopez.

Nativo Lopez rants on Telemundo about phony 'huelga'
Spanish language television has been giving the usual batch of reconquistas a lot of airtime lately. Today it was MAPAs Nativo Lopez (6:20 and 6:50 am PST). He's up in arms over the repeal of the dangerous illegal alien license law in Calif., and is promoting an economic boycott (huelga) by invaders and cheerleaders on Friday. He also demands amnesty for invaders. Yesterday, Univision had Juan Jose Gutierrez on the evening news screaming 'racista!' over a proposal that would require hospitals to report illegals. Mainstream TV news has ignored these two Fifth Columnists.
