Conservative groups protested the possible housing of Central American children in Vassar, Michigan, on Monday by marching through town, some with AR-15 rifles and handguns, according to The Detroit News.
About 50 protesters led by the group Michiganders for Immigration Control and Enforcement carried American and Dont Tread on Me flags as they marched from city hall to a social services facility that may house the children. The protest follows a similar but larger gathering that took place last week.

I believe the backlash from these vile demonstrations of hate will be the undoing of the GOP in the 2014 elections.

I'm getting really tired of this double standard of law enforcement; the laws just don't apply to wing-nuts.

I hope they are not the only ones trying to help!
