A Native American man criticized protesters at an Arizona rally against illegal immigration, calling them the real \u201cillegals\u201d for invading his country and killing Native Americans when Europeans first settled on US soil.<\/h1>\n

You\u2019re all f*cking illegal. You\u2019re\u00a0all\u00a0<\/em>illegal,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0the Native American man yelled at the protesters, who had gathered in Tucson, Arizona to demonstrate their opposition to illegal immigration by Central and South Americans.\u00a0\u201cWe didn\u2019t invite none of you here. We\u2019re the only native Americans here.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Some have applauded the man for pointing out the protesters\u2019 hypocrisy, who at one point immigrated to the US themselves or are descendants of immigrants. The Native American man, who was pushing his baby through town in a stroller, staged his own protest when he came across the rally.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet on with your bogus arguments. We\u2019re the only legal ones here,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he yelled.<\/p>\n

One protester was caught standing near the angry Native American and became the target of his criticism. The man was carrying a small American flag and a sign that read,\u00a0\u201cWe should have put that sign up when you sons-of-bitches came.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Pointing towards the American flag held by the protester, the Native American said that it \u201crepresents blood spilled by Native Americans, protecting this land from the invaders.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t want to hear the God damn truth!\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he yelled.\u00a0\u201cGet on, bitch! All the Native Americans you killed, you plant your houses here. That\u2019s the truth.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

With Arizona\u2019s proximity to the Mexican border, it has long been a hub for anti-immigration protests and initiatives. The state passed the \u201cSupport Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act\u201d in 2010, which is a strict anti-illegal immigration measure that has stimulated significant controversy. The law made it a misdemeanor crime for an \u201calien\u201d to be in the state of Arizona without carrying registration documents. It also allows law enforcement officers to stop any individual that they suspect of being an illegal immigrant, thereby promoting racial profiling. It also imposes heavy penalties on those involved in sheltering or hiring unregistered aliens.<\/p>\n

The law\u2019s controversial provisions were blocked by the US Department of Justice, but the Supreme Court in 2012 ruled to uphold the \u201cshow me your papers\u201d provision allowing law enforcement to stop anyone who looks like an illegal immigrant.<\/p>\n

But the Native American man who staged his own protest at the rally considers it hypocritical for Americans to criticize others for immigrating into the US when everyone but Native Americans at one point did so themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what [the American] flag stands for \u2013 all the Native Americans you killed to plant your houses here,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.\u201cThat\u2019s the truth.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n[media id=813 width=610 height=340]\n\n
