SINGING PROTEST SONGS and holding signs, about 100 people marched through downtown Lake Worth Beach on Saturday in a festive call for immigration policy reforms.
“We cannot remain silent and do nothing while our immigrant neighbors (aka, illegals)…are hauled away to detention camps, deported systematically and relentlessly, (with) family and children left suffering from that separation,’’ said organizer Barbara Eriv, head of the Palm Beach County Indivisibles Immigration Coalition.
“These are family-minded people. They are hardworking people. They are part of our community. These are not the criminals (illegals are all criminals) (ICE agents) should be going after,’’ she said.
The “Walk in Love” march kicked off at 11 a.m. at a symbolic starting point, outside the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office substation. It ended less than a mile to the east with a rally at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church.
Saturday’s marchers and rally participants included one elected leader, Lake Worth Beach City Commissioner Chris McVoy, who has been the commission’s lone vocal critic of federal immigration policies.

Talk to Grady Judd about how we should be treating immigrants who have no criminal record and are productive members of society. What does he know? He's only a sheriff and you're some old bitty who eats bologna sandwiches and turns in before 10.
As said so many times before, @12:04, illegals are ALL CRIMINALS simply by being in our counry uninvited and breaking our laws.
This "old bitty" is years ahead of you in wisdom and intelligence so don't compare everyone to Joe Biden's age dementia. Why don't you go back to writing your own blog that you gave up years ago. Too much work for a younger person...I get it.
Well half of lwb is illegal so they have to support them, so sad! So lawless!
