The Rally for Truth crowd was comprised of people of all colors; all were polite despite the close quarters. I spoke with many people & nearly all were able to communicate well in English; I don't speak Spanish. Did you know Spanish is the predominate language of Puerto Rico? They are US citizens.

Sadly anti-immigrant leaders cite skewed/false info that deceives their followers. Their hate is dividing our country. Patriotic? I think not. Learn the TRUTH, don't be duped.
