Raw video from the scene

Day laborers and their supporters took to the streets Saturday, this time protesting what they call harassing tactics by the anti-immigration group Border Watch.

“They’ll call you a thief, a thug. I’m no thief. I’m no thug,” one protester said.

The demonstrations have been going on for some time outside a day labor site in Spring.

Protesters say they can’t get work because Border Watch volunteers are scaring away employers.

Border Watch has said in the past that their volunteers don’t do anything against the law.
