Showdown in Nassau County

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 31, 2010

Nassau County officials say immigration agents endangered residents and police during raids last week. According to the charges, the federal agents were wearing cowboy hats and brandishing shotguns, when they were supposed to be investigating gang activity. Also, two movie critics compare notes on the New York Film Festival; Ayaan Hirsi Ali's security; and a call-in about the proposed redesign of the Marriage Bureau to rival Las Vegas.
