A handful of people waved American flags and held signs protesting health-care reform and illegal immigration outside Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian on Wednesday morning at a demonstration organized by the Minuteman Project.
“If there weren’t 30 million illegal aliens in this country, you would find no need for health-care reform,” said Raymond Herrera, a spokesman for the Minuteman Project National Rally project.
Holding a large American flag and a sign that read “Bless the USA,” Herrera was one of about four protesters who gathered at Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road on Wednesday morning. A few drivers passing honked their horns in response to signs that read “Stop Obama” and “Stop illegal immigrants.”
