Leftist group immigration discussion videos

On Tuesday May 3rd, The leftist organization Just Communities for Arkansas held a public discussion on immigration titled The New Challenges of American Immigration: What Should We Do? A crappy video talking about the history of immigration was shown. Although the 9/11 attacks were mentioned as having a negative impact on immigration views, no mention was made of how the failures of our immigration system allowed terrorist to obtain student visas and stay in the country after the visas expired. No mention was made of illegal alien crime, drugs, 3rd world corruption, taxpayer funded benefits, or other major immigration issues.

Rather than a townhall, the room was divided into about groups of about a dozen or so people based on what tables they sat at. More limits were placed on what we could talk about as 3 "approaches" to dealing with immigration were given. None of the approaches talked about the border or seperated legal immigrants from illegal aliens. On several occasions, I bring up the fact that illegal aliens are the main issue, not diversity.
