AVWatch: Villaraigosa promoting allegedly Mexico-linked group

Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa rushed back from his supposed trade mission to Central America and Mexico to deal with the aftermath of the MacArthur Park mini-riot.

Now, that he's back in our country, he's holding a press conference. While he says he believes in due process, he's implying that it doesn't apply in this case since it's so obvious that the police overreacted. He also didn't say anything about those who were throwing things at police.

He's also suggesting that people call CHIRLA (Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights in Los Angeles) for more information. That group has allegedly collaborated with the Mexican government.
