PROTEST THE LOS ANGELES INS USING REGISTRATION TO CONDUCT MASS ILLEGAL ARRESTS AND DISCOURAGING PEOPLE FROM REGISTERING AS REQUIRED BY LAW



Protest: The mass warrantless illegal arrests of Middle-Eastern males who showed-up for INS's mandatory registration program in Los Angeles in December

When: Saturday, January 4, 2003, Noon to 1 PM

Place: INS Los Angeles District Office

Federal Building

300 N. Los Angeles Street

Los Angeles, Ca. 90012

Why:

€ The program is supposed to "register" people, not target them for mass illegal arrests;

€ Thousands of men who did not register by December because they rightly feared illegal arrest or because of the chaos at the INS office deserve an extension to register;

€ The thousands of men required to register in January- February, 2003, should not again face mass arrests.

€ The men arrested in December who are still detained should be quickly released on reasonable bails.

€ Los Angeles appears to be the only city which used the registration program as a vehicle to make mass illegal arrests;
