The OC Weekly's Gustavo Arellano went verbally toe to toe last night in Denver with immigration critic and former Colorado congressman Tom Tancredo. The OC Weekly streamed the event and gathered comments. On Twitter, some Arellano partisans were left underwhelmed. "I love Gustavo to death, but i got bored after 20 minutes and started watching something else," LA Opinión columnist Pilar Marrero tweeted. Cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz also hoped for more fireworks. Arellano tweeted in response: "I felt I did my job, pero you can't please everyone, I guess! Gracias for tuning in, regardless!"
