Save Our State holds protests Home Depot

Saturday, June 18, 2005 - ALHAMBRA -- About 250 people turned out to protest Home Depot on Saturday, charging the company supports illegal immigration, police said.

Save Our State, which organized a protest in Baldwin Park last month against a monument they perceived as anti-American, organized the demonstration at a Home Depot store on Marengo Avenue in Alhambra.

The group rallied throughout the morning, Alhambra police said. No arrests or injuries were reported.
