How can anti-illegal immigration be racist if people from all countries are trying to sneak over our borders? Just try to go to another country illegally and see what happens! they will deport you faster then you can blink! We want the same as all other countries sovereignty and sustainablity!
MONDAY, may 23 @ 7pm = PLANNING MEETING:
Let us link our efforts! United for inclusion, for immigrant rights, for respect of Muslims, for solidarity with Mexico, for the 99% who have been victimized by Trump and the 1%.
LOVE tRUMPS HATE SOLIDARITY NETWORK is a new a coalition. Every anti-racist, pro-immigrant activist welcome. Join us!
~~~
Please forward this on to others so that representatives of a wide cross-section: including students, immigrant groups, Republican, Democrats, independents, labor unions & human rights organizations can coalesce for this common cause. For info 619-871-9354
The consensus was that Donald Trump remains one of the most dangerous and unpredictable candidates ever to potentially reach the White House. His racially charged politics, his anti-immigrant rhetoric, his Muslim bashing, and his pandering to billionaire 1%ers, makes him a threat that is worthy of major public mobilization. It is especially important that San Diego with the largest border entry point between the US/Mexico be ready to expose the very real consequences of hate
President Trump? Send him Packing out of San Diego!
Mobilize to send a message of solidarity to all DT hates.
The group decided to adopt the name for our Coalition efforts. We adopted a slogan often heard which we thought represented our positive approach to combating hate speech, calling ourselves the Love Trumps Hate Solidarity Network.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Rally Outside Trump Speech at San Diego Convention Center Noon – 4 pm
Friday, May 27, 2016 – Bilingual Press Conference 1 PM
Sponsored by the ‘Love trumps Hate Solidarity Network
5/27/16 San Diego, CA, U.S.A
Location: Gather at 5th and Harbor Drive, across from the San Diego Convention Center.
Friday’s rally outside the Trump speech will be part of a mobilization of several thousand. This noon- time rally will focus on the theme “TEAR DOWN WALLS BETWEEN PEOPLES: Unity/Unidad and Solidarity”.
The “Love trumps Hate Solidarity Network” is committed to a non-violent rally. We are not coming to yell or engage Trump’s supporter. Our focus is on Trump’s incendiary words and actions.
In the call to action the Solidarity Network states “Come participate in democracy in action, a 1st amendment in action. Our rally is a visible response to a real threat.
There’s two kinds of free speech – the first, which Mr. Trump exercises, incites man against man and encourages racial and social divisions. We, as part of the 99%, reject this type of race, class or gender baiting. Our demonstration is an example of the second kind of free speech in both its inclusive content and democratic intent; thus Unity/Unidad and Solidarity.
We reject Mr. Trump’s divisive values; values that do not represent America. Trump does not represent our multicultural society. He does not represent women or immigrants. He does not represent this nation’s acceptance of all religions and creeds. He does not represent the environment, economic rights or the diverse spirit of this land.
A president is a nation’s most visible symbol of its core values. Mr. Trump does not represent America’s core values; “all men (and women) are created equal”. Trump single out Muslims and Mexican-American as causes our social problem. He does not represent an America of equal opportunity. His heart is not with the people of America and are in opposed to the interests of the 99%.
Mr. Trump fuels hate, greed, and entitlement which comprise the basest character flaws of humanity.
The Love trumps Hate Solidarity Network rejects scapegoating. We demonstrate to the world, through this action, our rejection of the greed economy lest the world think that the US people are all of a like mind. Here the 99% demonstrates democracy in action and exercises our free speech.
We call on San Diegans to rally with us on Friday, May 27th at 5th at Harbor Drive. Wear Orange. Take public transit.
Opportunity for visuals: BANNER-MAKING and TEACH-IN TRAINING: Meet Thursday. May 26th at Grassroots Oasis near Old Town ~3130 Moore St. San Diego.

(NOTE: Several groups have called for demonstrations on May 27th. Our Network is willing to collaborate and support other events. SEIU members will likely march through downtown and meet up with us. The Rally starting at Chicano Park at 1:30 will march to the Convention Center. Democrats will gather south of our location across from the Convention Center. Others have not announced their exact plans)
Why doesn’t Mexico tear down their border wall between them and Guatemala? People who are from or for Mexico don’t push us about building a wall while Mexico has a border wall of their own!
Protest Event: Friday, May 27 2016, Trump Rally – Time 10 AM –
Human Rights – San Diego SDC Community Group
