NEW YORK (CBS 2/AP) – Officials arrested two people and discovered 35 roosters in a bird fighting ring on Long Island.

Suffolk County Police said they removed the roosters from at home on Half Mile Road in Central Islip along with equipment used to prepare them for fighting, a fighting ring, scales and spectator seating.

The investigation centered on the two homeowners: Pablo Lopez and Rosa Medero. Lopez and Medero were arrested and charged with two felony counts each of Prohibition of Animal Fighting.

All the spectators were issued appearance tickets and released.

Police said a lengthy investigation led to the arrests.

    The problem here is not racism, the problem here is not that we all migrated to this country at some point — the problem is this: When our ancestors came here, they embraced the laws, and obeyed the laws. That’s what made this country the great place it once was. Now, immigrants complain that they “miss the things they did in their homeland” and ignore the laws of this nation. The attitude of the immigrant has changed. Say what you wish, it’s not racism, it’s poor behavior and respect by most (not all) of the new arrivals to this great nation. Look at Ozone Park on 9/11, when they danced in the streets. Yes, danced. Things have changed, and Americans (those that embrace and respect our culture) will fight it to the end.

    Lovely looking people aren’t they! Well just send them back to Mexico or wherever they came from, and while on the boat back we all can give them the bird.

    I can see why there are so many problems in the U.S. You are all racist. This planet is for all not just for some. Grow up! Become Human Beings!

    • AJ Morgan

      Like someone else has mentioned, it isn’t racism, it’s the total disrespect of this nations Laws and Customs the new immigrant has towards this country, and her citizens. I honestly don’t care of people immigrate here, but do so the right way, for the right reasons – not just to get the handouts and live off US taxpayer money.

    I’m Jack Twobears. Which of you is NOT a illegal immigrants. When you don’t understand a culture you want to KILL it. Pilgrams said we were heathens.
    If you were guilty of a major crime we banished you to walk alone forever.
    Yours was to draw & quarter. Take the advice of Chief Joseph.

    • argyle

      The real Jack Twobears? Wow. Why would you be reading an online rag like this?

      • Jack Twobears

        Why? Maybe to help someone find the way. Ignorance is just something we don’t know. Stupid goes on forever. Lakota saying. “Mitakuye Oyasin” We are all related. By Dr. A.C. Ross, required reading at more than 300 univi. Try it.
