Law enforcement officials said the volunteers were keeping the peace, despite concerns they might become confrontational with immigrants. Many of the volunteers were recruited over the Internet and some plan to be armed.

"Everything seems to be going well," said Carol Capas, a spokeswoman for the Cochise County Sheriff's Office.

The pro-illegal immigration crowd won't like this,how long 'til they start something?

I loved riding horseback along Imperial Beach just south of San Diego, point out the illegals to the Border Patrol who were a couple hundred yards away. Man, that was fun. You felt like you were doing something to help.

What do you want to bet that the same people who rail against the "racist vigilante" Minutemen pointing out the illegals to the Border Patrol would have NO PROBLEM with a vigilante group calling the cops' attention to these same illegals working for the evil Wal Mart?

I wonder how long it will take the courts to put these poor huddled masses back on the street.

Citizens: "Border Patrol?"

"Yeah, we've come across some illegal aliens down here. Can you send some agents to arrest them?"

Border Patrol: "Illegal aliens?"

"We're shocked...shocked, I tell you!"

"We had no idea people were crossing the border there without permission."

"Thank God you people are there. That kind of thing is highly illegal."

"We've had our suspicions about that Arizona border for a very long time...rumors and such."

"We were seriously considering sending some agents to the border to check out the reports."

"We'll have somebody there to arrest them within the week...as soon as we can get some Border Patrol agents down to the border."

When I had a horse ranch in New Mexico, this was always a constant problem for us. They would deposit the illegals just South of my property, and expect them to sneak beyond the border patrol check-point.

Sue and I would often arrest them, and holding them at gun point, wait for the border patrol to take them off of our hands.

Way to go MMP!!
Now if 80% of Americans can agree on the subject of our borders why is it that the likes of the ACLU still seem to be the ones making policy??
I hope the MMP has it's desired effect and those in DC make some much needed changes!

RE: calling the MMP "racists"

I've read through several immigrant threads today and the taunts just aren't there anymore. The worst was calling the MMP "cowboys." (They're playing cowboys and Indians.)

I've not looked at threads over the past week or so until 1 April. Setting aside the "April Fools" jokes it seems that some people really did resign FR. A few of the names mentioned were to the best of my recollection some of the ones who screamed Racists! Bigots! the loudest. I guess they are gone. Way to go, Opus.

If they are not gone.. this is eerie. What are they up to?
