Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- October 5
Wian: Escondido,
California is a mostly well to do city of 150,000 people in northern
San Diego county. It's also home to an estimated 35,000 illegal
aliens. They make up more than 3/4 of the residents of some neighborhoods
and official they say live in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions.
So, three city council members proposed an ordinance that would
penalize property owners who rent to illegal aliens. Wednesday
night, supporters and opponents of the measure demonstrated outside
City Hall.
Jeff Schwilk, San Diego Minutemen: You have the Americans
who are trying to stand up and deal with problems in the communities
and you have the other side which wants to keep the borders open
and keep people here illegally, no deportation, no problems.
