With all the coverage of the pro illegal immigration coverage, this is an interesting group. www.dontspeakforme.org
I have spoken with many Americans of Mexican descent that are really ticked off about the illegal immigration problem. This is the first time I have actually seen a group that will stand up and be counted. I applaud their effort.
The new group You Don't Speak for Me! formed when Col. Al Rodriguez became fed up watching media coverage of the mass protests of April. "Their leaders were saying it was a march for immigrant rights and a Latino/Hispanic movement," says Rodriguez. "I thought to myself, 'Hey, those are illegal aliens, not immigrants!'" Col. Rodriguez began speaking out to others saying, "I'm of Hispanic ancestry and those people are acting like they speak for me. Well, you don't speak for me!"
